Abstract

The study introduces a new approach to precision machining of large-sized surfaces of second order on a three-coordinate horizontal milling machine. The new technology does not require the use of unique large-size boring lathes or five-axis milling machines. Three-axis horizontal milling machines do not need to be equipped with additional equipment that provides the workpiece with the missing rotational and translational movements relative to the machine table. The proposed technology is based on the use of a new approach that combines the geometric parameters of the second-order machined surface, the spherical surface of the cutting tool, i.e. cutter, and their position relative to the working table. The use of the developed technology will improve the efficiency and accuracy of machining the surface of second order, as well as simplify the control program and technological support due to the absence of movable equipment. The study gives an example of practical implementation and shows the possibility of independent control of the machined parabolic surface geometry using a three-coordinate horizontal milling machine.
