Part Program Optimisation in CNC Turning Operation

Abstract

This study presents development of a new method for optimization of CNC turning machining parameters. A Boxford CNC turning machine adopted to include sensors to measure the cutting forces in two axes using different parameters: (feed rate, speed, cutting, tool type, materials of the parts machined). The two main cutting forces measured during the experiments used to create a database which was led development of a software to automatically optimize the CNC codes. (In Turkish
