Implementation of an Algorithm to Prevent Chatter Vibration in a CNC System

Abstract

Machining of shafts characterized by a high compliance is difficult due to the occurrence of self-excited chatter vibrations. It is possible to limit their occurrence through the appropriate selection of technological parameters. For a proper selection of these parameters it is necessary to know the dynamic properties of the machine–tool–workpiece. This study proposes an approach through which these properties can be determined as a result of the synthesis of the dynamic properties of the system, using the receptance coupling method. Knowledge of these properties allows us to select the technological parameters of the lathe using the assistance system integrated into the CNC (Computerized Numerical Control). The final section of this work presents the experimental validation of the assistant and proposed procedures.
