NC Machining Program Simulation and Experiments for Pelton Runner

With pelton turbines and other complex three-dimensional structure cavities that contains various shaped surfaces and all kinds of larger curvature, the three-axis CNC machine with a tool rotary to achieve the four coordinate overall Pelton CNC machining. According to processing characteristics of pelton runner, the paper determines the selection of materials and the overall structure of the tool. And the appropriate way of milling and milling parameters are made. The overall processing program and processing parameters of pelton runner are designed on this basis. The feasibility of the process and cutting route are verified by the simulation of cutting route and experiments.
