Abstract

The article describes the results of experimental studies on the effects of variation type for variable teeth pitches on low-rigidity workpiece chatter suppression efficiency in a feed direction and in a direction of the normal to the machined surface. Mill operation performance was identified by comparing the amplitudes of dominant chatter harmonics using constant and variable teeth pitches. The following variable pitch formation variants were studied: alternative, linear rising, and linear rising falling. The angle difference of adjacent teeth pitches ranged from 0 to 10°, from 5 to 8° and from 5 to 10° with interval of 1°. The experiments showed that for all variants, machining dynamics performance resulted from the difference of adjacent pitches corresponding to a half the chatter wavelength along the cutting surface. The alternative nature of a variable teeth pitch is most efficient as it almost completely suppresses the chatters. Theoretical explanations of the results are presented
