Abstract

The energy efficiency and volume-energy ratio of milling cutter are important index to evaluate energy utilization rate of milling cutter. The milling process is not only affected by random factors such as cutter tooth error but also by non-steady-state factors such as milling vibration and cutter tooth wear. These factors lead to the uncertainty of machining process, and it is difficult to identify energy transfer relationship of milling cutter. According to finite element simulation analysis results of milling cutter, the wear depth of cutting edge was obtained. The coordinates of selected point on cutting edge were solved, and the time varying of cutting edge equation after wear was revealed. According to the calculation method of instantaneous shear energy efficiency, volume shear energy ratio, and volume tangent-force energy ratio, the variation of energy efficiency and volume-energy ratio along the cutting edge was obtained. And temporal-spatial distribution of energy efficiency and volume-energy ratio under multiple factors was revealed. The influencing mechanism of energy efficiency and volume-energy ratio of cutter teeth was identified. A calculation method for distribution of energy efficiency and volume-energy ratio under multiple factors was proposed. The validity of the model was verified by using energy efficiency and volume-energy ratio under different cutting parameters. The results showed that above models could distinguish the influence of unsteady factors on energy efficiency and volume-energy ratio, which could provide a basic model for high-energy-efficiency design of cutter teeth.
