Projek ini dijalankan bertujuan untuk mengkaji kesan proses pengisaran terhadap keutuhan permukaan keluli perkakas D2. Dalam kajian ini, keluli perkakas kerja sejuk AISI D2 yang telah dikeraskan kepada 62 HRC dimesin menggunakan sisip karbida bersalut CVD boleh indeks yang dipegang oleh perkakas pengisaran hujung berdiameter 20 mm. Siri–siri ujian dijalankan dalam keadaan kering. Penilaian ke atas permukaan yang dimesin melibatkan kekasaran permukaan dan analisis mikrostruktur. Keputusan kajian menunjukkan bahawa tiada hubungan yang jelas di antara variasi kelajuan pemotongan dan suapan terhadap kekasaran permukaan. Umumnya, permukaan yang dihasilkan adalah sangat licin dengan nilai Ra berada dalam julat 0.10 μm – 0.43 μm dan analisis permukaan pada sampel–sampel ujikaji juga mendapati hampir tiada perubahan dapat dikesan pada mikrostruktur bahagian bawah permukaan yang dimesin. Walau bagaimanapun, pada kelajuan pemotongan tertinggi (160 m/min) dan suapan yang tinggi (0.02 mm/sisip), terdapat kesan termampat dan terherot pada mikrostruktur pada kedalaman yang sangat cetek iaitu lebih kurang 2.2 μm dari permukaan termesin.

The hardened AISI D2 (62 HRC) was machined under dry cutting conditions using a 20 mm diameter end–milling tool with indexable CVD coated carbide insert. Analyses revealed that the variation in cutting speeded and feed did not significantly affect the surface roughness of the machined surface. Generally, the surfaces produced are very smooth with Ra values in the range of 0.1 – 0.43 μm, and studies showed almost no microstructure alteration on the machined surfaces. However, at the highest cutting condition, i.e. a cutting speed of 160 m/min, and feed of 0.02 mm/tooth, some compression and distortion effects were detected on the microstructure at the very shallow depth of approximately 2.2 μm from the machined surface.

This paper presents the additional work of the previous research in order to verify the previously obtained cutting condition by using the different cutting tool geometries. The effects of the cutting conditions with the dry cutting are monitored to obtain the proper cutting condition for the plain carbon steel with the coated carbide tool based on the consideration of the surface roughness and the tool life. The dynamometer is employed and installed on the turret of CNC turning machine to measure the in-process cutting forces. The in-process cutting forces are used to analyze the cutting temperature, the tool wear and the surface roughness. The experimentally obtained results show that the surface roughness and the tool wear can be well explained by the in-process cutting forces. Referring to the criteria, the experimentally obtained proper cutting condition is the same with the previous research except the rake angle and the tool nose radius.

Alloy cast iron cylinder is the mainstream product used in engine nowadays. However, the machinability of alloy cast iron is poor because of its enhanced mechanical properties. In this paper, turning experiment has been conducted to study machinability of alloy cast iron with uncoated and coated carbide tools under dry cutting condition. The results of the experiment indicated that the turning performance of alloy cast iron with coated tool was much better than uncoated tool in terms of cutting force coefficients and tool wear. Feed rate has a great influence on surface roughness, and appropriate tool wear is benefit of finished surface roughness.

In this paper, the surface integrity is studied when machining the aeronautical titanium alloys. Surface roughness, lay, defects, microhardness and microstructure alterations are studied. The result of surface roughness judges that the CVD-coated carbide fails to produce better Ra value than the uncoated. Lay is characterized by cutting speed and feed speed directions. Feed mark, tearing surface, chip layer formation as built up layer (BUL), and deposited microchip are the defects. Microhardness is altered down to 350 microns beneath the machined surface. The first 50 microns is the soft sub-surface caused by thermal softening in ageing process. Microstructure alteration is observed in this sub-surface. Down to 200 microns is the hard sub-surface caused by the cyclic internal work hardening and then it is gradually decreasing to the bulk material hardness. It is concluded that dry machining titanium alloy is possible using uncoated carbide with cutting condition limited to finish or semi-finish for minimizing surface integrity alteration.

TA15 (Ti-6.5Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V) is a close alpha titanium alloy strengthened by solid solution with Al and other component. A series of experiments were carried out on normal and high speed milling of TA15. The recommended tools for many years had been the uncoated tungsten carbide grade K. In this work, the tool life of coated carbide tools used in high speed milling of forging and cast titanium alloy was studied. Additionally, the wear mechanism of cutting tools was also discussed. Finally, surface integrity, including surface roughness, metallograph and work hardening, were examined and analyzed. The result shows that the surface quality of forging and cast machined by carbide cutter is similar, but the tool life of carbide in high speed milling of forging TA15 is longer than that in high speed milling of cast TA15.

Ultra-precision machines are widely used to turn aspherical profiles on mould inserts for the injection moulding of optical lenses. During turning of a profile on a stainless steel mould insert, the cutting speed reduces significantly to 0 as the cutting tool is fed towards the center of the machined profile. This paper reports on experiments carried out to study the wear of uncoated, PVD-coated and CVD-coated carbide tools in the ultra-precision machining of STAVAX (modified AISI 420 stainless steel) at low speeds.
