Performance of Helical Edge Milling Cutters in Planing Wood

ABSTRACT

A new design of a milling cutter with solid helical edge has been developed for better performance of wood cutting. Development of the new helical edge milling cutter with its geometries for planing wood has been followed by some research progresses. In this work, a conventional edge milling cutter and helical edge milling cutters were tested in planing spruce wood (Picea abies). The purpose of the research work was to investigate chip flow, power consumption, noise emissions, edge wear, and surface roughness characteristics of the helical edge milling cutters in planing spruce wood. Experimental results showed that the helical edges compared to the conventional edge of milling cutter provide better chip flows with nearly axial in direction and low flight velocity. Though the extreme helical edges (65°, 75° and 85° inclination angles) generate slightly larger cutting power than the conventional edge, however they considerably generate lower noise level up to 10 dB(A). The helical edge milling cutters are better in wear resistance, suffered less edge fractures, and produce better surface quality of planed wood than the conventional edge milling cutter.

Keywords: Conventional edge, helical edge, inclination angle, wear, noise emission, power consumption, chip flow, surface quality
