Abstract

Measuring rotating tool-tip frequency response functions (FRFs) is difficult because of the fluted tip geometry. The methods based on receptance coupling substructure analysis (RCSA) can obtain rotating tool-tip FRFs with a few tests. Existing RCSA-based methods require at least one smooth rod for measurement and then mathematically calculate the desired rotating tool-tip FRFs. However, involving the inverse of the experimentally obtained FRFs matrix, these methods are susceptible to the measurement noise in the rotating structure. In addition, the inconsistency between the holder–tool and holder–rod connections is another uncertainty which impacts accuracy. This paper presents a robust RCSA-based method to obtain rotating tool-tip FRFs. It is found that tool-tip FRFs can be calculated from another point FRFs on the same assembly. Then, one point on the smooth cylindrical shank of the tool is selected for measurement. The measured FRFs, along with those from the theoretical tool model, calculate the rotating tool-tip FRFs. Compared with the previous methods, the proposed one does not require inverting the measured FRFs matrix, inherently avoiding amplification of measurement noise. Since the tool replacement is no longer required, in situ measurement is achieved to ensure the same holder–tool connection throughout the procedure. The proposed method is first validated in a numerical case and then verified experimentally by a commercial hammer and laser vibrometer. Both results show that the method is insensitive to the measurement noise and can obtain rotating tool-tip FRFs with considerable accuracy.
