[0032] Specifically, the reference point determination method of the indexable blade peripheral edge grinding auxiliary tooling is as follows:

Then the standard size precision cubic blade 9 is clamped between the rotating center shaft 2 and the pressing center shaft 4, and it is known that the edge length of the standard size precision cubic blade 9 is a, and the thickness is t. After loading, it is necessary to first detect the pose of the cubic blade 9 using the micrometer 30. The head of the micrometer 30 is adjusted to contact the relief surface 92 close to the machine tool spindle 20 side, the machine tool spindle 20 is controlled to move along the Y-axis direction, if there is a numerical fluctuation in the head, it is considered that the clamping pose of the blade 9 is incorrect at this time, and it needs to be unloaded and reloaded, and after repeated operation for several times, until there is no numerical fluctuation in the head, it is considered that the clamping pose of the blade 9 is correct. Then continue to keep the contact between the head of the micrometer 30 and the relief surface 92 close to the machine tool spindle 20 side, control the machine tool spindle 20 to move along the Z-axis direction, if there is a numerical fluctuation in the head, control the motor 3 to drive the rotating center shaft 2 to rotate, drive the blade 9 to rotate, until there is no numerical fluctuation in the head, it is considered that the relief surface 92 close to the machine tool spindle 20 side of the cubic blade 9 is parallel to the YOZ plane, and the rake surface 91 of the cubic blade 9 is parallel to the XOZ plane, the preparation work of measuring relative position is completed.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the milling cutter 10 with a radius of R is installed on the machine tool spindle 20, the movement of the machine tool spindle 20 is adjusted, so that the end face of the milling cutter 10 is aligned with the relief surface 92 close to the machine tool spindle 20 side of the cubic blade 9, the axial coordinate value L in the X-axis direction of the machine tool coordinate system at this time is recorded, and the edge length of the standard cubic blade 9 is a, so the coordinate value of O1 relative to O in the X-axis direction can be determined

By adjusting the movement of the machine tool spindle 20, the side surface of the milling cutter 10 is aligned with the rake surface 91 of the cube blade 9, and the axial coordinate value Y in the X-axis direction in the machine tool coordinate system at this time is recorded. Combined with the milling cutter radius R and the blade thickness t, the coordinate value of O1 relative to O in the Y-axis direction can be determined as Adjust the movement of the machine tool spindle 20, align the side surface of the milling cutter 10 with the rear rake surface 92 of the cube blade 9 parallel to the XOY plane, record the axial coordinate value Z in the Z-axis direction in the machine tool coordinate system at this time, and combined with the milling cutter radius R and the blade edge length a, the coordinate value of O1 relative to O in the Z-axis direction can be determined as
