Abstract
The machining of titanium alloy can lead to serious tool wear, with this resulting in a lack of milling system stability and chatter. This paper looks at the relationship between milling stability and the use of micro-texturing on cutter surfaces, which aims to reduce tool wear. A stability lobe diagram is first drawn that is based on a dynamic model of the milling of titanium alloy by a ball-end milling cutter. This provides the cutting parameters for a stable domain. A micro-texture distribution model is then established for different cutting depths and the influence of micro-texture parameters on the milling performance of cutting tools according to various cutting parameters studied. The parameters are then optimized using an artificial bee colony algorithm, with the milling force, machined surface quality, and tool wear being adopted as the principal evaluation indicators. This provides a theoretical basis for the future selection of optimal cutting and micro-texture parameters.
