Cladding influence on the milling of low-stiffness aluminum alloy parts with local clamping

The milling of aeronautical skins on flexible and reconfigurable fixtures is a major industrial challenge due both to the low rigidity of the skins and to the configuration of these fixtures, which, although they provide a great versatility of use and are an efficient alternative to pollutant chemic...

Sumario:The milling of aeronautical skins on flexible and reconfigurable fixtures is a major industrial challenge due both to the low rigidity of the skins and to the configuration of these fixtures, which, although they provide a great versatility of use and are an efficient alternative to pollutant chemical milling, vibrations can easily occur in them that may impair the surface quality, increase the error of the final thickness and cause excessive cutting forces. Aiming to foster the use of flexible fixtures, a study of the natural frequencies and cutting forces obtained when milling thin parts has been carried out, with special emphasis on analyzing the influence of the cladding of aluminum alloy parts.
