An investigation about the effect of cutting conditions to surfaces roughness when high-speed milling on the 5-axis machine UCP600

Abstract

Improving the machining surface quality is one of the most significant aspects in the field of manufacturing technology and only by improving it, machines can achieve high accuracy, long duration and high efficiency in both economic and technological aspects. The High speed Machining (HSM) can deliver not only outstanding productivity but also high accuracy and required roughness even in the condition of hard materials. In this report, we evaluate the effect of the cutting conditions: v(200 - 400 m/min), s(0.02 - 0.06 mm/tooth), t(0.3 - 0.7 mm) to surface roughness Ra when machining SKDl 1 steel by the Sandvik face milling tool.
