The invention relates to a damping cutter bar for turning coarse-pitch threads, and belongs to the field of machining. The damping cutter bar comprises a cutter bar shaft, a cutter bar shaft sleeve, an exciting coil, an upper permanent magnet, a lower permanent magnet, a piezoelectric ceramic piece, an end cover, a magnetorheological fluid and the like, wherein the exciting coil is wound on the cutter bar shaft, a coil lead of the exciting coil is connected with the piezoelectric ceramic piece, the magnetorheological fluid is injected into an annular cavity formed by the upper permanent magnetand the lower permanent magnet, and the piezoelectric ceramic piece is arranged in an annular cavity formed by the upper permanent magnet and the cutter bar shaft sleeve. According to the damping cutter bar, vibration can be suppressed when the coarse-pitch threads are turned, ever-changing current is generated by the piezoelectric ceramic piece due to cutting vibration and is transferred to theexciting coil through the coil lead, therefore, an ever-changing magnetic field can be generated by the exciting coil, so that the rigidity and damping of the magnetorheological fluid are quickly changed, the vibration reduction function is realized, and the surface quality of a to-be-processed workpiece is increased.
