Abstract
Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) is prone to machining defects, including burrs and tearing, during milling. These defects are closely associated with interface delamination while milling force plays a crucial role in their occurrence. In this paper, a nonlinear explicit finite element (FE) model is developed to predict the milling force and analyze the delamination damage occurring during the milling of unidirectional CFRP (UD-CFRP). The proposed FE model is validated through numerical comparison with experimental data for milling force. Moreover, a detailed study is conducted to examine the influences of spindle speed, feed rate and depth-of-cut on the side-milling performance and damage response of UD-CFRP. This study provides valuable insights into the effects of machining parameters on milling force and delamination damage in CFRP, thereby supporting the optimization of machining technology for this composite material system.
