H{sub {infinity}} control of chatter in a milling machine
In this paper, preliminary results on the use of active chatter control in a new type of milling machine is presented. It is expected that this machine will cut metal at twice the rate of conventional machines without an appreciable increase in cost. Performance enhancements are achieved by the integration of active feedback control into an existing machine structure. To reduce computational burden, decoupled control is proposed. Extensive simulations have shown that significant performance enhancements are achievable.
