Prototype Development of Milling Machine Using CAD/CAM
Nikita R. Saharkar, Girish M. Dhote
Abstract: The development of unmanned machining systems has been a recent focus of manufacturing research. The conventional milling machine removes metal with a revolving cutting tool called a milling cutter. For this, CNC machines are in use. CNC machine operates on part program. This program includes several G-codes and M-codes. This program is generated by skilled operators. This may cause error in geometry. Also increases labor cost. Thus new technology of milling operation is conceptualized to reduce these problems using CAD/CAM. In this, firstly part design is created in CAD software like CATIA, ProE etc. This part design is fed in CAM software. Accordingly, coordinates forms. Also program is generated. According to that program, cutting tool operates to produce required part.
