Abstract

Based on the geometric features of the undevelopable ruled surface (URS) and conical and cylindrical milling cutters, this paper analyzes the interference errors which take place when a part with a URS is machined using 4-axis side milling. Formulas to calculate the interference errors are derived, and methods to reduce the errors are proposed. Experimentation on a turbine impeller whose blades are URS shows that the derived formulas and the proposed error-control methods are effective. Thus, the analysis provides a promising solution for the practical problem occurring in the machining of parts with URS.
