Rate My Professor Lufti Taner

Tunç's academic interests and research specializations encompass 5-axis milling, machining dynamics, tool path generation, milling of thin-wall parts, non-planar additive manufacturing, robotic milling, machining of superalloys, and hybrid manufacturing. He received the TÜBA-GEBİP Award for Outstanding Young Scientists in 2021 from the Turkish Academy of Sciences. Tunç is an Associate Member of CIRP, the International Academy for Production Engineering, and previously served as the outgoing Secretary of the CIRP Research Affiliates in 2018. Key publications include 'Experimental study on investigation of dynamics of hexapod machine tools using receptance coupling method' in the International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology (2016), 'Machining strategy development and parameter selection in 5-axis milling based on process simulations' in the International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology (2016), 'Tool Path Strategies for Efficient Milling of Thin-Wall Features' in the Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing (2024), and 'Non-planar 5-axis directional additive manufacturing of plastics' (2024). He delivered a seminar in the Robotics and Control Systems series at UNC Charlotte on February 16, 2024, and is affiliated with the DEAM Lab as a research affiliate. His work advances process simulations and strategies in advanced machining technologies.
