• DynaMill Technology and Process Chain to layout or improve processes
o In step 1 a first machining of the workpiece with standard or experience-based process parameters by usage of a DynaMill adaptive clamping device is conducted.
o Afterwards (step 2), the measuring of calibration FRFs of the workpiece which is fixed in the machine tool is realized.
o In step 3, the measured calibration FRFs are used as input parameter for the CAM planning module to be able to predict the dynamic behavior of the workpiece and to compile the needed NC code(s) for machining.
o Finally (step 4), by additional usage of the milling tools which increase process stability, the optimized machining of the workpiece based on the »DynaMill-Technology« can be carried out.
o Based on this approach the required thin-walled workpiece quality in conjunction with considerable reduction in manufacturing time and resource input can be achieved.
