The concept of the equivalent orthogonal cutting conditions, applied to modeling of the mechanics of ball end milling, is extended to include the dynamics of cutting forces. The tool is divided into very thin slices and the cutting force applied to each slice is calculated and summed for all the teeth engaged.

In this study the mechanics of ball-end tool which is commonly used to machine parts with free-form geometric features are studied. The main problem in ball-end milling mechanics is tool indentation which leads to inaccurate force prediction in tool axial direction, and has previously been solved experimentally only for specific cases.
Chatter in ball-end milling was first studied by Altıntaş and Lee in . They described a numerical method for predicting stability lobes in a ball-end milling system. They integrated the mechanics and dynamics of ball-end milling into a time-domain simulation model, which resulted in a time-consuming computation process.
In addition to geometrical model verification, milling tests for regular, serrated cylindrical, and serrated tapered ball end mills were conducted to validate the model's accuracy.

Abstract Ball-end milling is widely used in industrial applications, such as mold manufacturing and aerospace industries. One of many difficulties in milling research is the milling force, which is often crucial to the component's processing efficiency and quality. In this paper, a method for predicting ball-end cutter milling force and its probabilistic characteristics is presented.
