Abstract

Numerical simulation of milling process needs an accurate model of cutting tool. In this paper, we describe the methodology developed to design flat and ball end mills in three-dimensional configuration. The geometry of these cutters is issued from an analytic study based on oblique cutting theory. The described model is performed by using parametric CAD software. Hence, it involves a big number of variables as the diameter, the helix, the rake and the clearance angles and the teeth number. Furthermore, the modelled cutters are compared to real scanned ones in order to validate the used methodology. The results show a good accuracy regarding the global three-dimensional shape.
