The mathematical description of end mill cutters and effective radius of tool geometry on multi-axis milling

الملخص EN

act The mathematical modeling and detailed algorithms are derived in this paper to describe the geometrical shape of end mill cutters for multi-axis milling machining.

Details of the geometry analysis techniques are presented to understand the effective cutting shape.

Three types of cutters are taken in the present paper.

Finally, the procedures of finding the instantaneous cutting profile and local geometry analysis are discussed.

The techniques presented in this paper can be used to eliminate errors of milling tool path generation in the area of simultaneous multi-axis NC complex surface machining.
