Abstract
In this paper, a surface topography simulation model is established to simulate the surface finish profile generated after a turning operation. The surface topography simulation model incorporates the effects of the relative motion between the cutting tool and the workpiece with the effects of tool geometry to simulate the resultant surface geometry. It is experimentally shown that the surface topography simulation model can properly simulate the surface profile generated by turning operations. The surface topography simulation model is used to study the effects of vibrations on the surface finish profile. It is found that the vibration frequency ratio is a more important vibration parameter than the vibration frequency on the characterization of the surface finish profile. The vibration frequency ratio is the ratio between the vibration frequency and the spindle rotational speed.
