Abstract
The ultimate goal of future manufacturing is to design, test, and manufacture parts in a virtual environment before they are sent to the shop floor. While Part I of this paper presents the modeling of process simulation in a virtual environment, this second part presents computationally efficient algorithms for optimal selection of depth of cut, width of cut, speed, and feed while considering process constraints and variation of the part geometry along the tool path. The objective function is selected as the material removal rate (MRR), and optimization of milling processes is based on user defined constraints, such as maximum tool deflection, torque/power demand, and chatter stability. The MRR is maximized by optimal selection of cutting speed, feed rate, depth, and width of cut. Two alternative optimization strategies are presented. Preprocess optimization provides allowable depth and width of cut during part programming at the computer aided manufacturing stage using chatter constraint, whereas the postprocess optimization tunes only feed rate and spindle speed of an existing part program to maximize productivity without violating torque, power, and tool deflection limits. Optimized feed rates are filtered by considering machine tool axis limitations, and the algorithms are tested in machining a helicopter gear box cover.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
