Abstract

Chatter occurs more frequently due to the lower stiffness of the thin-walled parts, which may exert damaging effect on the machined surface of workpiece. To avoid chatter and predict the stable zone more precisely, a relative transfer function was introduced to consider dynamic properties of both milling tool and workpiece, and an improved multi-frequency solution was employed to predict the critical cutting depth in axial direction. Verified by a cutting test and time domain simulation, improved multi-frequency solution had been proven to be more accurate than zero-order analysis. The proposal of improved multi-frequency solution is important for the chatter suppression techniques to improve the processing efficiency and quality in the aerospace industry.
