Machining Process Simulation
Machining Process Simulation
The simulation of machining process has emerged as a useful way of reducing the cost associated with process design and trouble shooting. The machining simulation can provide prediction of many machining process conditions such as cutting force, tool/work vibration, chatter, cutting temperature and residual stresses in terms of cutting parameters and tool geometry. These results can be used to achieve optimal condition of processes without relying on costly experiments.
The activities on machining process simulation are based on two approaches: mechanics modeling and finite element modeling. The processes being modeled include face milling, turning, boring, end milling and grinding. Some of the developed simulation programs are listed below.
