Description
Summary:The aim of this study was to develop a concept for an angular positioning method for a round cutting insert in a torus cutter body dedicated to the multi-axis milling process under high-speed machining cutting conditions. The method concept is based on a developed wear model using a non-linear estimation method adopting a quasi-linear function. In addition, a tool life model was developed, taking into account the cutting blade work angle parameter, the laser marking method for the round cutting insert, and a wear measurement methodology. The developed tool wear model provides an accuracy of 90% in predicting the flank wear of the cutting blade. The developed procedure for angular positioning of the round cutting insert enables the entire cutting edge to be fully utilized, extending the total tool life. In addition, the measured largest defect values between the worn cutting edge and the nominal outline of the round cutting insert indicate the location of notching-type wear.
