Drilling

Drilling module allows simulation of cutting forces, torque, power, and tool deflections during hole making process.

Drilling module has the following features:

• Handles twist drills with user defined geometry with lip grinding errors
• Uses common work material data base in CUTPRO. 
• Accepts dynamics parameters of the machine tool and workpiece manually by the user or in variety of formats (i.e. frf, uff, HP sdf, cmp files) created in CutPro or other commercial modal analysis software packages.
• Makes the following predictions and analysis:
  
  
  • Cutting forces in three directions, torque and power
  • Static deflections of the tool
  • Hole errors
  • Forced lateral, axial and torsional  vibration time history and frequencies of the drill
  • The influence of tool grinding errors on hole quality
  • Chatter stability lobes in frequency domain
