MULTI-DIRECTIONAL TURNING ON CNC MACHINES
The method of multi-directional turning (MDT) for the machines with CNC, in which a reversal of the main cutting edge of the cutter relative to the turning point by a fixed angle at each change of direction of its move is carried out automatically by the cutting force is presented. Design of the cutting tool is described. Circuits of treatment of the semi-closed and closed surfaces are demonstrated. The results of experimental research are outlined.
