This paper concern a design of a boring bar in order to reduce chatter vibration amplitude of machining by adding an auxiliary mass imbibed in viscous oil and related to the bar by a flexible rod. This principle of simple application lends itself very well to the transposition into a two degrees of freedom system. It is therefore possible by conventional methods to give the boring bar higher dynamic qualities and an optimal design.
Introducing these innovations, we managed to reduce neatly the amplitude of vibration chatter about one third (1/3).
