Summary: In this study, a nonlinear mechanistic cutting force model considering the comprehensive effect of cutting-edge radius and tool wear on the micro-milling force is constructed for micro-milling tool wear monitoring. A stepwise offline optimization approach is proposed to estimate the multiple parameters of the model. Experiments show that, compared with the linear model, the nonlinear model has significantly improved cutting force prediction accuracy and tool wear monitoring accuracy.

Summary: In metal-cutting technology, accurate modeling and prediction of milling forces are important research areas. The mechanical model based on unit-cutting force coefficients is widely used due to its high prediction accuracy. However, the calibration of the cutting force coefficients faces challenges when dealing with peripheral milling with non-full radial depth of cut. To address this, a cyclic calibration method considering elastic deformation is proposed.

Summary: This study systematically investigates the characteristics and variations of micro-milling force and specific cutting energy through the analysis of fast Fourier transform spectra, curve shapes, and representative parameters. The quasi-dynamic cutting force is adopted to evaluate the micro-milling force, while the specific cutting energy is calculated using the ratio of quasi-dynamic cutting force and average undeformed chip thickness. The results provide important insights into the micro-milling mechanism from the perspective of cutting force and specific cutting energy.
