Abstract
- Abstract: The functions of metal cutting machine tools have been increasing to meet the demands of high productivity and high accuracy in machining complicated and difficult parts on one machine. This paper presents a comprehensive survey of multi-functional machine tools used for metal cutting, and their kinematic configurations, control and programming technologies. Design principles and assessment of multi-functional machine tools are discussed mainly taking examples of 5-axis machining centers. The paper also presents examples of latest multi-functional machine tools as well as current status of related supporting technologies. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
