RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Reznicek, Martin A1 Horava, Cyril T1 The Influence of the Choice of Machining Strategy on Production Technology JF Manufacturing Technology Journal YR 2024 VO 24 IS 1 SP 117 OP 130 DO 10.21062/mft.2024.014 UL https://journalmt.com/artkey/mft-202401-0012.php AB This paper deals with the issue of selecting different machining parameters in the CAM system Siemens NX 1946. The issue of choosing between a solid end mill, milling cutter, and a high-feed tool when machining simple rectangular and rugged cavities concerning time and residual material is solved here. The chosen material was 1.1730, which is a basic material for the production of moulds without heat treatment. The paper deals with the issue of choosing the size of tool feed into the cut and its influence on the formation of the machining path depending on the depth of the cavity. The size of the residual material depends on the machining strategy and the choice of the plunge method into the material with regard to the total machining time. Performed simulations and experiments have shown a significant impact in individual settings and, thus, on the cost of machining components of such shapes.
