Magnetic Chuck Failure Prediction: Towards the Use of Non-conventional Clamping in Milling Operations

Applicability assessment of magnetic plates systems in milling evaluates quickly and economically the advantages of the use of such equipment in machining operations. Easily determine whether a given operation can be performed in a specific magnetic table requires prior knowledge of the limits of the equipment and of the forces generated in the cutting process. This article determines necessary tools to feed a system of evaluation of applicability based on the relationship between stresses and reactions of the magnetic plate. The content focuses on the development of a behavioral model of forces in milling and a methodology for characterization of magnetic chucks.
