However, tools with less than lmm diameter using for micro-mills have very short and unpredictable life when they are used to cut hard metals. In this study, preliminary design of experiment （DOE） test program was conducted to investigate and i- dentify the factors affecting tool wear at the micro-scale with hard material. Analysis of variance （ANOVA） and Taguchi method were efficient to determine appropriate cutting condition and the effect of parameters. A simple model was also developed to predict the width of slots on the workpiece along the cutting length. The obtained re- suits can provide the basic guidelines for parameter setting of micro-end-milling with hard material.展开更多
