    CHAPTER 25

    • A machining center is an advanced computer-controlled machine tool that perform


    machining operations without removing

    • Vertical-spindle Machining Centers: Performing on parts with deep cavities


    • Horizontal-spindle Machining Centers: Suitable for large and tall workpieces
    • characteristics of machining centres:
    o Handles different kinds of parts
    o Time required is reduced
    o Detection of tool breakage and wear
    o Inspection of machined work
    o highly automated
    • concept of reconfigurable machines gives a flexibility movement (3 or 5 axis)
    • materials suitable for machine-tool
    o 1. Gray cast iron
    o 2. Welded steel
    o 3. Ceramic
    o 4. Composites
    o 5. Granite–epoxy composites
    o 6. Polymer concrete
    • 2 sources of heat in machine tools (internal & external)
    • Sliding surfaces have very low friction
    • Low stiffness can cause vibration and chatter
    • Chatter results in:
    o 1. Poor surface finish
    o 2. Loss of dimensional accuracy
    o 3. Premature wear
    o 4. Damage to the machine-tool components
    o 5. Objectionable noise
    • Forced Vibration: Caused by some periodic force
    • Vibrations can be minimized by changing the configuration of the machine-tool
    components
    • Self-excited Vibration: Caused by the interaction of the chip-removal process with
    the structure of the machine tool, they have high amplitude
    • Regenerative chatter is when a tool cutting a surface that has a roughness or
    geometric disturbances developed
    • Self-excited vibrations can be controlled by:
    o Increasing the stiffness and dynamic stiffness of the system
    o Damping

    • Internal damping results from the energy loss

    • External damping is accomplished with external dampers
