The invention discloses a
cutting force prediction method based on in-situ
laser auxiliary heating orthogonal milling, and belongs to the technical field of
laser auxiliary heating machining.The
cutting force prediction method comprises the steps that the instantaneous meshing angle and the instantaneous
cutting thickness of
milling cutter teeth are obtained; according to the environment temperature and the workpiece temperature, obtained based on the
laser temperature finite
element model, of the laser
irradiation area, the shearing force coefficient and the ploughing force coefficient in the three directions are obtained; establishing a
cutting force model of the milling infinitesimal of the
milling cutter under the cutter coordinate
system O1X1Y1Z1 so as to obtain three-way instantaneous
cutting force borne by the milling infinitesimal of the
milling cutter; the three-way instantaneous
cutting force is converted into a workpiece coordinate
system O0X0Y0Z0, integral summation is conducted within the axial cutting depth range of the cutting edge of the milling cutter, and meanwhile, the three-way cutting force borne by the milling cutter under the workpiece coordinate
system O0X0Y0Z0 is obtained by combining a laser temperature
threshold function. According to the method, the influence of
tool wear evolution and workpiece material
thermal softening is considered, and the cutting force of in-situ laser
auxiliary heating orthogonal milling can be accurately predicted.
