摘要：Traditionally, forecasting stability lobe diagram in milling is limited by complex damping identification procedures, so only structural damping from the impact experiment is used for predicting stability lobe diagram in most milling cases. In this study, by using the mathematical expressions among damping ratio, “critical limiting depth of cut” and “worst spindle speed”, it is shown that the predicted “critical limiting depth of cut” based on the structural damping divided by the measured “critical limiting depth of cut” can be approximately equal to the structural damping divided by the total damping. Based on this relationship, it is easy to estimate the total damping or process damping from the experiment within the selected spindle speeds. In practice, this paper presents an easy method for predicting stability lobe diagram using the total damping. At the same time, experiments have confirmed that using the prediction model of total damping can more accurately predict the stability lobe diagram.
