This paper primarily deals with suppression of chatter in end-milling process. Improving the damping is one way to achieve higher stability for machining process. For this purpose a damper is proposed that is composed of a core and a multi fingered hollow cylinder which are shrink fitted in each other and their combination is shrink fitted inside an axial hole along the tool axis. This structure causes a resisting friction stress during bending vibration. Using FEA-ANSYS the structure is simulated. Then a parameter study is carried out where the frequency response and the depth of cut are calculated and tabulated to obtain the most effective configuration. The optimal configuration of tool is fabricated and finite element results are validated using modal test. The results show a high improvement in performance of the tool with proposed damper. Good agreement between experiments and modeling is obtained.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
