A computer-implemented method provides setpoint values for a feed rate for adaptive feed control on numerically controlled machine tools. Upon machining a workpiece with a tool, receiving a real-time data with a current state of at least one controlled axis, determining actual values of at least one cutting force of the tool based on the real-time data, receiving a look-ahead data associated with a predicted state of the at least one controlled axis, simulating the machining of the workpiece based on the real-time data and the look-ahead data, generating simulated values of the at least one cutting force of the tool, determining at least one setpoint value for the feed rate of the at least one controlled axis based on the simulated values and the actual values of the at least one cutting force of the tool, and providing the at least one setpoint value.

An estimated force applied by a milling tool at a surface point of a component is determined during milling operations of the component. An estimated deflection of the component associated with the estimated force is determined using the estimated force and a compliance tensor of the component corresponding to the surface point of the component. The estimated deflection of the component is compared to one or more deflection criteria. A feed rate of the milling tool is adjusted during the milling operations of the component based on results of the comparing.

A machining condition management system includes: a cutting tool that includes a cutting edge and a sensor; a storage that stores a mechanical machining condition and a measurement value; and a processor that performs revision of the mechanical machining condition based on the mechanical machining condition and the measurement value stored in the storage. The processor determines a load on the cutting tool based on the measurement value in a first cutting process under the mechanical machining condition, calculates a revised value for revising the mechanical machining condition for at least one machining interval that has fulfilled a prescribed condition in the determination for the first cutting process, and updates the mechanical machining condition in a second cutting process, based on the calculated revised value, and outputs the mechanical machining condition in the second cutting process.

An apparatus includes a motor, a pinion coupled to the motor, a rack engaged with the pinion, and a housing body assembly configured to hold a working tool. The motor is configured to drive rotation of the pinion and the rotation of the pinion is configured to drive linear translation of the rack. The rack is operably coupled to the housing body assembly such that the linear translation of the rack is configured to urge the housing body assembly along a first axis in a first direction to move the working tool relative to a workpiece.
