Chip thickness calculation has a key important effect on the prediction accuracy of accompanied cutting forces in milling process. This paper presents a mechanistic method for estimating cutting force in ball-end milling of sculptured surfaces for any cases of toolpaths and varying feedrate by incorporation into a new chip thickness model. Based on the given cutter location path and feedrate scheduling strategy, the trace modeling of the cutting edge used to determine the undeformed chip area is resulted from the relative part-tool motion in milling. Issues, such as the selection of the tooth tip and the computation of the preceding cutting path for the tooth tip, are also discussed in detail to ensure the accuracy of chip thickness calculation. Under different chip thicknesses cutting coefficients are regressed with good agreements to calibrated values. Validation tests are carried out on a sculptured surface with curved toolpaths under practical cutting conditions. Comparisons of simulated and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
