Abstract: The determinations of actual cutting depth and ultrasonic vibration amplitude, and the influences of input variables on ultrasonic vibration amplitude have important significance on the high efficiency and precision processing of rotary ultrasonic machining (RUM). The features of actual cutting depth during RUM are presented by analyzing the kinematics and cutting characteristics of diamond tool. Experiments are conducted to explore the relations of actual cutting depth and ultrasonic vibration amplitude,and the effects of spindle speed, feedrate and cutting depth on ultrasonic vibration amplitude. The results show that actual cutting depth is determined by effective superpositied ultrasonic vibration amplitude and cutting depth. The ultrasonic vibration amplitude stays unchanged with the changes in input variables (spindle speed, feedrate, and cutting depth), which can ensure the dimensional accuracy of the workpiece during RUM.
