    Effect of Tool Cavity Conditions on Damping, Chatter Mitigation, and Surface Quality in Internally Cooled Milling Tools
    (Elsevier B.V., 2025) Namlu, R.H.; Dogan, H.; Ozsoy, M.
    Chatter is a critical factor limiting productivity and efficiency in machining processes. Cutting tools significantly impact chatter stability, as they often serve as the most flexible component. The influence of cutting tools on chatter varies depending on their design and cooling mechanisms. Internally cooled cutting tools, commonly used in industrial applications, have the potential to exhibit distinct damping characteristics due to the presence of internal cavities, differentiating them from conventional solid tools. This study explores the effects of internally cooled milling cutting comparing an empty cavity cutting tool with a tool filled with viscous fluid. The primary objective is to evaluate how these conditions influence the damping of the machining system and their subsequent impact on surface quality, a key outcome sensitive to chatter. Surface topography and roughness measurements were taken after the experiments to assess changes in surface quality. The findings offer valuable insights into the role of internal cooling and fluid properties in not only chatter but also vibration suppressions in milling operations, highlighting their potential to enhance machining performance. © 2025 The Author(s).

    Feasibility Study of Chatter Suppression in Milling Through Internal Channels
    (Springer London Ltd, 2025) Dogan, Hakan; Ozsoy, Muhammet; Namlu, Ramazan Hakki
    Milling chatter significantly affects machining productivity, and methods to eliminate chatter caused by milling cutter dynamics are limited due to space constraints and the rotation of the milling cutter. This study investigates the impact of fluid-induced damping effect on chatter stability in milling operations and proposes it as an easy to implement and effective method to improve chatter stability caused by a cutter's vibration mode. The approach utilises a viscous fluid, silicone oil, filled into internal coolant channel of the cutting tool to improve stability by increasing the damping. Both modal and milling tests were conducted for the tool with and without silicone oil. The results show that stability can be significantly increased by this method presenting it as a viable chatter suppression technique. The results show a significant improvement in stability by presenting the method as a practical and cost-effective chatter suppression solution. Its ease of implementation makes it attractive for industrial use.
