The modal parameters of the structure converted to displace¬ment domain are identified from modal analysis software and are given in Table 4.3. The experimentally measured and reconstructed transfer functions are compared in Figure 4.16, which indicates the accuracy of identified modal parameters. Later the modal parameters are used to simulate the stability lobes for a half-immersion down-milling and slotting of Al-7075 alloy. These results are shown in Figure 4.17. The minimum stable depth of cut seems to be about °iim — 4 mm in half-immersion up-milling and about aijm = 1.5 mm in slotting. The ideal stability pockets correspond to a spindle speed n = 11,800 rev/min, where the maximum material can be removed without chatter. Note that there is hardly any stability pocket at speeds less than n = 5,000 rev/min, which is due to the many tightly packed vibration waves at each tooth period. Because Al-7075 is not a hard material, it is clearly advisable to machine it at high speeds to enhance productivity. The stability lobes presented for this case have been experimentally proven on a machining center powered by a 15 kW spindle capable of
