In deep-hole boring processes, boring bars with a large length-to-diameter ratio are typically employed. However, excessive overhang significantly reduces the boring bar's stiffness, inducing vibrational effects that severely degrade machining precision and surface quality. To address this, the research objective is to suppress vibrations using a tunable-parameter boring bar. This paper proposes a novel Tunable Dynamic Vibration Absorber (TDVA) boring bar and designs its fundamental parameters. Based on the derived dynamic model, the vibration characteristics of the proposed boring bar are analyzed, revealing the variation in damping performance under different excitation frequencies. By establishing the relationship between TDVA stiffness, damping, and the axial compression of rubber bushings, optimal parameter combinations can be precisely identified for specific excitation frequencies. Ultimately, adjusting the TDVA's axial compression displacement (0.1-0.5 mm) significantly expands the effective machining frequency range compared to conventional designs while maintaining operational reliability. This study proposes a novel Tunable Dynamic Vibration Absorber (TDVA) that innovatively integrates axial compression to achieve coupled stiffness and damping adjustments, addressing the rigidity-adaptability trade-off in deep-hole boring tools.
