This study investigates passive vibration reduction in spring wire cutting by integrating lattice structures into optimized cutter head geometries. Finite element modelling was conducted to evaluate the dynamic performance of modified designs through modal and harmonic response analyses. Results from modal analysis indicate that the introduction of internal cavities and lattice infill maintains structural stiffness with minimal reduction in natural frequencies. Harmonic response analysis demonstrates a significant decrease in vibration amplitude under dynamic loading, confirming improved damping characteristics. The lattice structures enhance energy dissipation and reduce resonance effects by redistributing stresses within the cutter head. Overall, the findings highlight that lattice-integrated designs provide an effective and practical approach for mitigating cutting-induced vibrations while preserving structural integrity in high-impact spring manufacturing applications.Downloads
