ボールエンドミルによる仕上げ加工においては、加工精度が重要であり、ボール刃の回転軌跡の良好な真球度が必要であるが、ボール刃に所定の逃げ角を付与するため、軸心部付近は、3枚以上の多刃の場合、次刃との砥石干渉を避ける為に、軸心部を越えて、砥石を回り込ませることができず、軸心部に突起が残り、ボール刃の回転軌跡の真球度が得られず、アール精度に課題があった。
多刃のボールエンドミルは、刃数を増やしたことにより、送り速度が上げられ、加工能率が向上するが、加工精度に課題があった。特許文献1記載の親子刃では、軸心付近で親刃のみで切削することになり、送り速度を上げることができず、送り速度を上げると親刃の負担が大きくなり、子刃の軸心側端にエッジを有することから、チッピングや欠損を生じていた。特許文献2記載の軸心合わせは、ボール刃は所定の逃げ角を付与するため、軸心部付近は、次刃との砥石干渉や、砥石干渉を避けるが為に、軸心部に突起が残り、軸心部付近のアール精度が得にくく、特許文献3記載のノッチを設けたものは、ノッチ部でアール精度が大きくマイナスし、ボールエンドミル自体のアール精度が得られておらず、加工精度に課題があった。
本発明の課題は、良好なアール精度が得られ、良好な加工精度が得られるボールエンドミルを提供することである。
In finishing processing with a ball end mill, processing accuracy is important, and a good sphericity of the ball blade's rotation trajectory is necessary, but in order to give a predetermined clearance angle to the ball blade, In case of 3 or more multi-edged blades, in order to avoid grinding wheel interference with the next blade, the grinding wheel cannot be passed over the shaft center part, and a protrusion remains on the shaft center part. The sphericity could not be obtained, and there was a problem with R accuracy.
The multi-blade ball end mill increases the feed rate and increases the machining efficiency by increasing the number of blades, but has a problem in machining accuracy. In the parent-child blade described in Patent Document 1, cutting is performed with only the parent blade in the vicinity of the axis, and the feed rate cannot be increased. If the feed rate is increased, the burden on the parent blade increases, and the axis of the child blade is increased. Since the side edge has an edge, chipping and chipping occurred. In the axial alignment described in Patent Document 2, since the ball blade gives a predetermined clearance angle, in the vicinity of the axial center portion, there is a protrusion on the axial center portion in order to avoid grinding wheel interference with the next blade and grinding wheel interference. The remaining rounding accuracy in the vicinity of the shaft center is difficult to obtain, and those provided with the notch described in Patent Document 3 have a large negative accuracy at the notch, and the rounding accuracy of the ball end mill itself has not been obtained. There was a problem.
An object of the present invention is to provide a ball end mill that can obtain good rounding accuracy and good machining accuracy.

本願発明は、エンドミル先端に3枚以上のボール刃を有するボールエンドミルにおいて、該エンドミル底面視で、軸心部に心残し部を設け、該軸心部付近に、該ボール刃から変曲して延伸する切れ刃を設け、各ボール刃から延伸した該切れ刃が略多角形状をなすように変曲させたことを特徴とする多刃ボールエンドミルである。   The present invention provides a ball end mill having three or more ball blades at the tip of the end mill, wherein a center-remaining portion is provided in the axial center portion when viewed from the bottom of the end mill, A multi-blade ball end mill having a cutting edge to be extended and inflected so that the cutting edge extended from each ball blade has a substantially polygonal shape.

本発明を適用することにより、良好なアール精度が得られ、良好な加工精度が得られる3枚刃以上の多刃ボールエンドミルを提供することができた。   By applying the present invention, it was possible to provide a multi-blade ball end mill having three or more blades, which can obtain good rounding accuracy and good machining accuracy.

本発明は、心残し部を設けることにより、エンドミル先端の摩滅量を抑制し、アール精度及び切削性を維持しつつ、軸心部付近の強度が向上し、高精度な加工が持続できる。該ボール刃から変曲して延伸する切れ刃を設けることにより、アール精度が得られる。該切れ刃は、ボール刃の回転軌跡である球面にほぼ沿った面、例えば、逃げ角で5°以下の面にする。各ボール刃から延伸した該切れ刃を略多角形状に変曲させることにより、被加工物とのクリアランスが少ない部分を減少でき、略多角形状の各辺が稜状となることから、その一部に切削性が生じ、切削抵抗が減少し、高精度な加工ができる。ここで、略多角形状の頂点は、ボール刃上に位置することが望ましく、ボール刃との差が無くなり、切削性がより安定し、加工面が規則的になり、良好な加工面が得られる。また、略多角形状の頂点が心残し部の外接円の外側に位置しても本発明の範疇であることは言うまでもない。   In the present invention, by providing the center-remaining portion, the wear amount at the end of the end mill is suppressed, the roundness accuracy and the machinability are maintained, the strength in the vicinity of the shaft center portion is improved, and highly accurate machining can be continued. By providing a cutting edge that bends and extends from the ball blade, rounded accuracy is obtained. The cutting edge is a surface substantially along a spherical surface that is the rotation locus of the ball blade, for example, a surface having a clearance angle of 5 ° or less. By inflection of the cutting edge extending from each ball blade into a substantially polygonal shape, the portion with a small clearance from the workpiece can be reduced, and each side of the substantially polygonal shape becomes a ridge shape. As a result, cutting performance is reduced, cutting resistance is reduced, and high-precision processing can be performed. Here, it is desirable that the apex of the substantially polygonal shape is located on the ball blade, there is no difference from the ball blade, the machinability is more stable, the machining surface is regular, and a good machining surface is obtained. . Further, it goes without saying that even if the apex of the substantially polygonal shape is located outside the circumscribed circle of the heart leaving portion, it is within the scope of the present invention.

実施の態様として、ボール刃はセンタカット、等底刃に形成すると、切削負荷をボール刃毎に分散でき、加工面が規則的になり、良好な加工面が得られる。また、ボール刃を不等分割に配置したことにより、通常の等分割品より切削抵抗を減少させると共に、ビビリ振動を抑制し、より高能率、高精度な加工ができる。
次に、軸心を中心とする略多角形状の内接円の直径が小さくなる方向に、略多角形状の各辺を凹状に設けたことにより、略多角形状の面積を小さくでき、一層、被加工物とのクリアランスが少ない部分を減少でき、切削抵抗が減少し、高精度な加工ができる。更に、略多角形状の内接円の直径は、良好なアール精度を得ると共に、被加工物とのクリアランスが少ない部分を減少するために、略多角形状の外接円の直径の50%未満が望ましい。また、エンドミル先端の摩滅量を抑制するために、好ましくは、30%以上が望ましい。
As an embodiment, when the ball blade is formed in a center cut or an equal bottom blade, the cutting load can be distributed for each ball blade, the processed surface becomes regular, and a good processed surface is obtained. Further, by arranging the ball blades in an unequally divided manner, the cutting resistance is reduced as compared with a normal equally divided product, and chatter vibration is suppressed, so that highly efficient and highly accurate machining can be performed.
Next, by providing each side of the substantially polygonal shape in a direction in which the diameter of the inscribed circle of the substantially polygonal shape centered on the axis is reduced, the area of the substantially polygonal shape can be reduced, and the coverage is further increased. The portion with less clearance from the workpiece can be reduced, cutting resistance is reduced, and highly accurate machining can be performed. Furthermore, the diameter of the substantially polygonal inscribed circle is preferably less than 50% of the diameter of the substantially polygonal circumscribed circle in order to obtain good rounding accuracy and reduce a portion having a small clearance from the workpiece. . Further, in order to suppress the amount of wear at the end mill end, it is preferably 30% or more.

また、心残し幅に相当する、心残し部の外接円の直径が0.02mm〜0.3mmとしても良く、数値限定の理由は、0.02mmよりも小さいと、中心部の強度が十分ではなく、摩滅を抑えることができず、切削加工時において、心残し部のアール精度が維持できなくなる。0.3mmを越えると、心残し部は切削性が劣るため、切削抵抗及び先端部摩耗が増大し、ビビリやムシレを生じ、また、ボール刃と心残し部で切削状態の違いが目立ち、加工面が劣化する。好ましくは0.08mm〜0.2mmが望ましい。更に、心残し部には、チゼルエッジ状の稜を有しても良く、チゼルエッジ状の稜により、被加工物との接触部分を減少でき、切削抵抗が減少でき、高精度な加工ができる。
ここで、エンドミル母材に超硬合金やサーメット等の超硬質合金やCBN、ダイヤモンド等の高硬度焼結体を用いたり、TiAlN等の硬質皮膜やCr系の潤滑皮膜を施すことにより、長寿命化が計れることは言うまでもない。以下、実施例に基づき、3枚刃のボールエンドミルで本発明を具体的に説明するが、4枚刃以上の多刃のものにおいても、本発明の範疇であることは言うまでもない。
Moreover, the diameter of the circumscribed circle of the heart leaving portion corresponding to the heart leaving width may be 0.02 mm to 0.3 mm, and the reason for limiting the numerical value is that the strength of the central portion is not sufficient if it is smaller than 0.02 mm. Therefore, wear cannot be suppressed, and the rounding accuracy of the remaining portion cannot be maintained during the cutting process. If it exceeds 0.3 mm, the remaining part of the heart is inferior in machinability, resulting in increased cutting resistance and wear at the tip, resulting in chatter and mess, and the difference in cutting state between the ball blade and the remaining part of the heart is conspicuous. The surface deteriorates. Preferably it is 0.08 mm-0.2 mm. Furthermore, the remaining portion may have a chisel edge-shaped ridge, and the chisel edge-shaped ridge can reduce the contact portion with the workpiece, reduce cutting resistance, and perform highly accurate machining.
By using a hard alloy such as cemented carbide or cermet, or a high hardness sintered body such as CBN or diamond, or applying a hard coating such as TiAlN or a Cr-based lubricant coating to the end mill base material Needless to say, it is possible to make it easier. Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described with a three-blade ball end mill based on examples, but it goes without saying that a multi-blade having four or more blades is also within the scope of the present invention.

(実施例1)
本発明例1は、図1、図2に示すボール半径2mm、刃数3枚刃の超微粒子超硬合金製、TiAlNコ−ティングを3μm被覆したソリッドボールエンドミルであり、軸心部2に心残し部3を設け、軸心部2付近では、ボール刃1から変曲させて延伸した切れ刃5が略3角形状を形成している。従来例2は特許文献1記載の親子刃、従来例3は特許文献2記載の軸心合わせ、従来例4は特許文献3記載のノッチを設けたの3枚刃のボールエンドミルを同寸法で製作し、アール精度を測定後、切削テストを行った。切削条件は、被削材に硬さHRC40のプリハードン鋼を用い、回転数8000min−1、送り速度2400mm/min、切り込み量はエンドミル軸方向に0.2mm、ピック方向に0.1mmとし、水溶性の切削液を用いた湿式切削による3次元形状の仕上げ加工を行い、加工精度及び加工面の調査を行った。
その結果、本発明例1のアール精度は、軸心部付近を含め、ボール半径2mmに対し、±0.0050mmの範囲であり、軸心部には突起が存在せず、良好なアール精度であった。切削テストでは、軸心部付近の摩滅量が切削長100mではほとんどなく、切削長500m、0.003mm程度と微小であり、加工精度、即ち、3次元形状のフォーム誤差が5μm以下、加工面粗さが最大高さ面粗さRzで3μmと共に良好であった。従来例2は、アール精度±0.0050mmと本発明例1とほぼ同等であったが、親刃に切削初期にチッピングや欠損を生じ、加工精度、加工面粗さが得られず、寿命となった。従来例3は、軸心部のアール精度が+0.025mmと劣り、加工精度がフォーム誤差で30μmを越え、この突起により、加工面に深い傷を生じ、加工面粗さが最大高さ面粗さRzで37μmと劣った。従来例4は、ノッチ部でアール精度が大きくマイナスしており、切り込み過ぎや、削り残しを生じることから、3次元形状の仕上げ加工に使用できる状態ではなかった。
(Example 1)
Example 1 of the present invention is a solid ball end mill made of an ultrafine particle cemented carbide with a ball radius of 2 mm and a number of blades of 3 blades shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and coated with 3 μm of TiAlN coating. The remaining portion 3 is provided, and in the vicinity of the axial center portion 2, the cutting blade 5 that is bent and extended from the ball blade 1 forms a substantially triangular shape. Conventional Example 2 is a parent-child blade described in Patent Document 1, Conventional Example 3 is a shaft end alignment described in Patent Document 2, and Conventional Example 4 is a three-blade ball end mill with the same notch described in Patent Document 3. Then, after measuring the radius accuracy, a cutting test was performed. Cutting conditions were pre-hardened steel with hardness HRC40 as the work material, rotation speed 8000 min −1 , feed rate 2400 mm / min, cutting depth 0.2 mm in the end mill axis direction, 0.1 mm in the pick direction, water-soluble Finishing of a three-dimensional shape by wet cutting using the above cutting fluid was performed, and the processing accuracy and surface were investigated.
As a result, the rounding accuracy of Example 1 of the present invention is within a range of ± 0.0050 mm with respect to the ball radius of 2 mm including the vicinity of the axial center portion, and there is no protrusion on the axial center portion, and the excellent rounding accuracy is achieved. there were. In the cutting test, the amount of wear near the shaft center is almost not a cutting length of 100 m, but a cutting length of 500 m and about 0.003 mm, and the processing accuracy, that is, the three-dimensional shape form error is 5 μm or less, and the processing surface is rough. The maximum height surface roughness Rz was good with 3 μm. Conventional Example 2 had a rounded accuracy of ± 0.0050 mm, which was substantially equivalent to Example 1 of the present invention. However, chipping or chipping occurred in the parent blade at the initial stage of cutting, and the processing accuracy and surface roughness were not obtained. became. Conventional example 3 has an inferior rounded accuracy of +0.025 mm in the axial center, and the machining accuracy exceeds 30 μm in terms of foam error. This projection causes deep scratches on the machined surface, and the machined surface roughness is the maximum surface roughness. Rz was inferior to 37 μm. Conventional Example 4 is not in a state where it can be used for finishing processing of a three-dimensional shape because the rounded accuracy is greatly minus at the notch portion, and excessive cutting and uncut parts are generated.

A ball end mill of 45%, 40% as Invention Example 7, 35% as Invention Example 8, 30% as Invention Example 9, and 25% as Invention Example 10 was manufactured. After measuring, a cutting test was performed. In the invention example 5, each side of the substantially polygonal shape is substantially linear, and the invention examples 6 to 10 are concave. As a result, Examples 5 to 10 of the present invention all have a good radius accuracy of ± 0.0025 to 0.0050 mm, and the amount of wear in the vicinity of the shaft center is that of Examples 5 to 9 of the present invention when the cutting length is 500 m. 0.03 mm or less, Invention Example 10 was slightly inferior at 0.05 mm, but it was very small, and the foam error was 5 μm or less, which was good processing accuracy. As for the machined surface roughness, the invention example 10 was a good machined surface roughness of 5 μm or less except that the maximum height surface roughness Rz was inferior to 11 μm due to mussels and chatter.
