- Abstract
This work deals with technological considerations required to optimize the cutting data and tool path pattern for finishing the milling of free-form surfaces made of steel in a hardened state. In terms of technological considerations, factors such as feed rate, workpiece geometry, tool inclination angles (lead and tilt angles) and surface roughness are taken into account. The proposed method is based on calculations of the cutting force components and surface roughness measurements. A case study presented in the paper is based on the AISI H13 steel, with hardness 50 HRC and milling with a cubic boron nitride (CBN) tool. The results of the research showed that by modifications of the feed value based on the currently machined cross-sectional area, it is possible to control the cutting force components and surface roughness. During the process optimization, the 9% and 15% increase in the machining process efficiency and the required surface roughness were obtained according to the tool inclination angle and feed rate optimization procedure, respectively.
