Q

What is linear interpolation?

A

Uses G01 where the velocities of two axes are controlled to keep the tool on a straight path in a plane of motion

Q

What are the high-speed, very high speed and ultrahigh speeds for cutting speed?

A

High speed: 600-1800 m/min
very high: 1,800-18,000 m/min
Ultrahigh speed >180,000 m/min

17
Q

What are some characteristics for spindles with high speeds?

A

High stiffness
High accuracy
Hydrostatic/aerostatic are desirable

18
Q

What are some requirements for building precision machine tools?

A
  • Highly damping capacity
  • Thermally stable
  • Dimensionally stable in liquids

Candidates: cast iron, polymer concrete, natural granite

19
Q

What are some considerations for precision and ultra-precision machining?

A
  • Tool design/construction/assembly (e.g stiffness, damping, accuracy)
  • Spindle and slide-way technology such as hydrostatic
  • Thermal growth of the machine tool, compensation for thermal growth control of the machine-tool environment
  • Cutting-tool selection and application- ceramic and diamond tools are commonly used
  • Motion control and sensor system forr both linear and rotational components
20
Q

What are some of the application for micro-machining?

A
  • Create 3D components or features
  • Smart phone, medical devices, automotive
  • Product miniaturisation demands innovative micro-machining technologies
  • Competing with and complementing other micro manufacturing approaches
21
Q

What are some ADVANTAGES of micro-machining?

A
  • Broad range of workpiece materials
  • True 3-dimensional accuracy and surface finish
