Preventive measures for chipping and breakage of small-diameter end mills.
In order to prevent breakage, the runout accuracy must be strictly controlled. To this end, an effective method is to use a thermal expansion tool holder with high clamping accuracy to clamp the carbide end mill.
1. Increase cutting speed
Improving cutting characteristics Generally speaking, the cutting characteristics of the edge of the milling cutter cannot be fully utilized if the cutting speed is not reached.
Even if the rotation speed of small-diameter end mills is increased, the cutting speed may not be sufficient. Especially for ball-end end mills, the actual cutting diameter is very small, so the cutting characteristics of the blade cannot be fully utilized in many cases. Therefore, when using small-diameter end mills, effective measures must be taken for the actual cutting speed.
2. Control the size change of the depth of cut
It is also important to avoid sudden loads on the tool. Especially at the corners, the depth of cut will increase, which will increase the load on the end mill bits. It is necessary to take measures such as adding a pre-processing procedure to make the depth of cut of the small diameter end mill uniform.
Cycloidal tool trajectory can effectively balance the depth of cut. However, the cycloidal tool path moving on a circular arc path has a longer tool path and a correspondingly longer processing time than linear feed. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the cutting conditions to offset the extended processing time.
