Machining performance is often limited by chatter vibration at the tool-workpiece interface. Chatter vibration is a type of machining self-excited vibration which originated from the variation in cutting forces and the flexibility of the machine tool structure. Cutting tooling method is one of major factor to chatter vibration in turning process. Even though lots of cutting tooling methods are developed and used in machining process, precise analysis of cutting tooling effect in view of chatter vibration behavior. This study presents numerical and experimental approaches to verify and effects of various cutting tooling geometry and clamping method on the onset of chatter vibration. Acquired knowledge from this study will apply the optimal geometry design of cutting tooling and adjusting of machining process.
