A
cutting force prediction method based on features is characterized in that
feature recognition is carried out on a part based on a CAD three-dimensional model, and drive geometry recognizing the features is extracted according to a
feature recognition result and is dispersed into some points. A primary process decision is carried out to obtain rotating speed, feeding,
cutting depth,
cutting width and other process parameters, a shearing force action coefficient and a cutting edge force coefficient are measured through experiments, a
cut-in angle and a
cut-out angle are calculated according to cutting parameters, and finally
cutting force is calculated. According to
cutting force prediction based on the features, the
cutting force can be calculated according to the cutting parameter with different features in the part process
decision process, and warning and process modification are carried out on the relatively large feature of the cutting force. Before post-
processing, the cutting force can be predicted earlier. The predicted cutting force aims at each feature, that is, the modification is for a single feature, the
processing efficiency of each feature of a plane
structural component can be maximized,
overall efficiency is accordingly maximized, and the number of
simulation times is reduced.
