Cutting force information may be used for several tasks, such as tool design and trajectory optimization, tool condition monitoring, machinability testing and many others. Accordingly, cutting force measuring has become a crucial activity aimed at enhancing process performance. In this work, the development of an innovative rotating dynamometer for cutting force measurement in milling is illustrated. The device is capable of providing independent triaxial cutting force information from each cutting edge with a good dynamic response. Static and dynamic behavior of a simplified single-edge device was first investigated through the static calibration procedure, pulse tests and preliminary cutting tests. Afterwards, the dynamic properties of the final prototype clamped on the spindle of a high speed milling machine were assessed by means of standard and rotating pulse tests - i.e. pulse tests performed during spindle rotation. Eventually, cutting tests were performed on a benchmark workpiece. The experimental tests highlighted the superior features of the new device.
