TLDR
In this article, the effect of tool and workpiece flexibilities on surface error during peripheral milling of thin-walled tubular geometries was investigated, and the authors focused mainly on machining of tubular geometry.Abstract:
Machining of thin-walled tubular geometries poses interesting problems from a process planning perspective. In machining of such geometries by milling, cutting force-induced tool and workpiece deflections have to be overcome in order to realize part accuracies without compromising productivity. This calls for a systematic study of surface errors on machined parts due to both tool and workpiece deflections. The present paper investigates the effect of cutter and workpiece flexibilities on surface error during peripheral milling of thin-walled tubular geometries. Unlike previous attempts to study milling of thin-walled straight geometries, the present work focuses mainly on machining of tubular geometries. Tubular geometries need to be treated differently from a process planning perspective by exploiting the workpiece rigidity they offer. The process planner has an option of synclastic and anticlastic machining possibilities during machining of tubular geometries which needs to be explored and under...read more

Stability limits of milling considering the flexibility of the workpiece and the machine
TL;DR: In this article, a method for obtaining the instability or stability lobes, applicable when both the machine structure and the machined workpiece have similar dynamic behaviours, is presented. But this method is not suitable for the case of very thin walls with the possibility of lateral vibration of them in some cutting conditions.

Milling error prediction and compensation in machining of low-rigidity parts
TL;DR: In this paper, a new integrated methodology for modelling and prediction of surface errors caused by deflection during machining of low-rigidity components is proposed. But this approach is based on identifying and modelling key processing characteristics that influence part deflection, predicting the workpiece deflection through an adaptive flexible theoretical force-FEA deflection model and providing an input for downstream decision making on error compensation.
