<![CDATA[Vibration Assisted Machining (VAM) is a cutting method with additional vibrations on the tool or workpiece with a certain frequency and amplitude to improve the machining results' cutting performance and surface quality. VAM can be applied to several machining processes, such as drilling, turning, grinding, and milling. Based on the given direction, there are two types, 1D VAM where the vibration aligns with the actuator's axis, and 2D VAM where the vibration direction forms an elliptical movement. Both the application of VAM types in the milling process are still relatively minimal. Therefore, this study aims to present a 1D VAM system design using a piezoelectric ring actuator as a vibration device. The proposed design undergoes modal simulation and harmonic response simulation using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method. A flexure hinge with a thickness of 5 mm and a notch radius of 5 mm is applied to the design. The results indicate that the proposed design operates optimally at a working frequency of 17,510 Hz, with a displacement amplitude of 0.0000094 mm along the Z-axis and a maximum equivalent von Mises stress value of 24.447 MPa. These results suggest that the design is viable for future experimental testing.]]>
