A DYNAMIC CUTTING SIMULATION SYSTEM FOR ENERGY CONSUMPTION ESTIMATION
With the recent increase in energy demand,energy saving has become an essential consideration in sustainable manufacturing.In this paper,an improved power model to characterize the relationship between cutting parameters (i.e.spindle speed,feed,depth of cut,and width of cut) and power demand for machining processes is proposed,which can be integrated into a dynamic cutting simulation system for evaluating electrical energy consumption in machining.The dynamic cutting simulation system software called sustainable machining process simulation system (SMPSS) is developed based on an improved power model,which consists of three main modules,namely NC codes interpretation,energy consumption estimation simulator,and energy consumption analyser.In order to validate the estimation of energy consumption,experiments were performed under wet cutting environment according to design of experiments (DOE).Experimental results illustrate that the improved power model is able to provide an accurate evaluation of energy consumption for given process parameters.Good agreement between simulations and measured results suggests that the dynamic cutting simulation system is an effective tool and can be used for the calculation of total energy consumption required by a machine tool system,which can assist manufacturers to make reliable decisions for the milling process.
