Challenges of deflection and vibration damping techniques and implementing of selecting the appropriate cutting tool

Abstract

Machining, Precision machining is one of the core processes in today’s production technology facilitating the manufacture of intricate details of different industries, aerospace and automotive industries, in particular. Aside from controlling deflection and vibration and choosing the proper cutting tool, cutting speed greatly affects the quality, accuracy and productivity of machining processes. This cross-discipline research paper addresses these questions, reviews the literature, recognizes the missing pieces and sets the aims of the investigation necessary for addressing these pieces. Therefore, a detailed review of the available techniques, tools and materials related to machining processes, deflection, vibration control and cutting tool selection, has been performed in order to understand the existing knowledge base. The findings emphasize on the superlative influence of these factors in machining operation and recommend practical solutions to the problems regarded to their effect which would not be in disagreement with the available literature. Considering the previous cutting tool materials developed, particularly the wear resistant tools like carbide and diamond layer tools; findings of our study made the primary importance of such tool materials with changes, that is, vibration and deflection reduction properties became significant over all. The positive correlation between the increase in the hardness of machining material and productivity of the machining process. This study suggests a possible approach which could lead to enhanced competitiveness for the industry, reduced costs, and improved product quality by systematically solving the interrelated problems of deflection, vibration, and cutting tool selection, and superior product quality. “
