Analysis of stability in Turning with Secondary effects

This paper proposes an analytical scheme for stability analysis in turning process by considering the motion of tailstock-supported workpiece using a compliance model of tool and work. A dynamic cutting force model based on relative motion between the cutting tool and workpiece is developed to study the chatter stability. Linear stability analysis is carried out in the frequency domain and the stability charts are obtained with and without considering workpiece flexibility. Variations of stability limits with workpiece dimensions and cutter position as well as the effects of cutting tool dynamics are studied and wherever possible results are compared with existing models. Experimental analysis is conducted on tailstock-supported workpiece to examine the correctness of the proposed stability model.
