Numerical Modelling of Clamping Condition Effects on Contact Behavior and Structural Stability in Toolholder Systems during External Cylindrical Turning
The mechanical stability of tool-clamping systems is governed by contact conditions at the tool holder–tool post interface, which are directly controlled by bolt-induced preload forces. In external turning operations on universal lathes, manual tightening of clamping bolts may introduce preload asymmetry, resulting in...
