The Optimal Spindle Speed Map for Reduction of Chatter Vibration during Milling of Bow Thruster Blade

Article Preview

Abstract:

The milling process considered in the paper is a finishing milling of ship bow thruster. It is really challenging task because this kind of object can be prone to vibration, and due to certain conditions, the self-excited chatter vibration may appear [. One of the methods of the chatter reduction depends upon the selection of the spindle speed by matching it to the optimal phase shift between subsequent passes of the tool cutting edges [. However, in case of complex-shaped objects there may be different values of optimal spindle speeds for various points of the workpiece surface. The paper presents an example of implementation of the procedure of building the optimal spindle speed map [. In order to create the map for specific surface points, optimal spindle speed is obtained with the use of various modal analysis techniques. The map seems to be effective way for eliminating chatter in case of the process of milling flexible details.
