ANALYSIS OF CHATTER VIBRATION IN THE END MILLING PROCESS

Abstract

This paper continues the work of a previous paper by the authors. A different approach is applied, which adopts frequency domain analysis by linearizing the nonlinear equations to investigate the dynamic behavior in the milling process. A new relationship among the limiting axial depth of cut, workpiece fundamental natural frequency and spindle speed is constructed, and the obtained stable region is also consistent with that of the previous paper.
