Sumario:In order to improve the machining quality and efficiency and optimize NC machining programming, based on the existing cutting force models for ball-end, a cutting force prediction model of free-form surface for ball-end was established. By analyzing the force of the system during the cutting process, we obtained the expression equation of the instantaneous undeformed chip thickness during the milling process and then determined the rule of the influence of the lead angle and the tilt angle on the instantaneous undeformed chip thickness. It was judged whether the cutter edge microelement is involved in cutting, and the algorithm flow chart is given. After that, the cutting force prediction model of free-form surface for ball-end and pseudocodes for cutting force prediction were given. MATLAB was used to simulate the prediction force model. Finally, through the comparative analysis experiment of the measured cutting force and the simulated cutting force, the experimental results are basically consistent with the theoretical prediction results, which proves that the model established in this paper can accurately predict the change of the cutting force of the ball-end cutter in the process of milling free-form surface, and the error of the cutting force prediction model established in this paper is reduced by 15% compared with the traditional cutting force prediction model.
