Optimization of material removal rate for orthogonal cutting with vibration limits

Abstract

Besides growing accuracy requirements for cut parts the maximisation of productivity has still an important role in industry. One possible measure for productivity in cutting processes is the material removal rate. This study deals with the optimisation of the material removal rate considering the bounds set by vibrations through an analitical approach. The damping ratio region was determined, for which the identified local optima with respect to the maximal material removal rate hold.
