Summary

In order to realize a constraints-based adaptive control of the cutting process, an experimental investigation on bending and torque in milling was carried out on a numerically controlled milling machine.

A mini-computer operating in real-time and connected to the modified control unit of the machine-tool sets a wide range of spindle speeds and feeds while machining various materials at different depths and widths of cut. The signals received from bending and torque transducers are digitalized for each machining condition and statistically processed.

The relationships obtained between bending and torque and the cutting conditions show good agreement with those already available in the technical literature.

The results, moreover, confirm the reliability of the whole system, which has proven to be a powerful tool for the acquisition of cutting data.
