Abstract

Cutting tools are usually represented by two-dimensional representation schema(s). The two-dimensional nomenclatures have their inherent limitations. This paper outlines a detailed surface based modeling paradigm for a variety of multi-point, multi-flute cutting tools. The work presents the generic biparametric surface based models of slab mills, end mills and drills. The flutes are modeled as helicoidal surfaces. The relations to map proposed three-dimensional (3D) rotational angles that generate 3D geometric models to conventional angles (forward mapping) and their reverse relations (inverse mapping) are also developed. The new paradigm offers immense technological advantages through numerous downstream applications.
