Single Crystal Diamond

In this study, the tool performance of two types of binderless diamond tools – single-crystal diamond (SCD) and nano-polycrystalline diamond (NPD) – is investigated in the high-speed cutting of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) with a water-soluble coolant. The NPD tool allows for a larger cutting force than the SCD tool by dulling of the cutting edge, despite NPD being harder than SCD. This large cutting force and the very low thermal conductivity of NPD yield a high cutting temperature above 500°C, which promotes the adhesion of the workpiece to the tool face, thereby increasing tool wear. Based on the morphology of the tool edge without scratch marks and the elemental analysis by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) of both the flank face and the cutting chips, diffusion-dissolution wear is determined to be the dominant mechanism in the diamond tool. A thin TiC layer seems to be formed in the boundary between the diamond tool and the titanium alloy at high temperatures; this is removed by the cutting chips.

Ae Signals

This study deals with the micro v-grooving of a single crystal diamond tool that is implemented on a 3-axis micro-stage. A method for monitoring the machining conditions is investigated using acoustic emission (AE) signals and cutting force signals in the micro-grooving. The AE signals and machined surface profiles are obtained under various machining conditions. The signals are acquired from an AE sensor that is attached to the tool holder and are investigated to identify the correlation with the machined surface profiles. It is found that the AE signal is an effective parameter for monitoring the texture of the machined surface.

Titanium Alloy Ti6al4v

In this work, cutting experiments were carried out on titanium alloy Ti6Al4V by using single crystal diamond tools to investigate the effects of cutting parameters on machined surface roughness. Experimental results show machined surface roughness decreases with increases in the cutting speed within a limited range, begins to increase as the factors reaches to certain values respectively, and decreases with increases in feed rate. Cutting depth has no significant influence on the machined surface roughness. The results also show that dominant mechanisms of the single crystal diamond tools are abrasive wear and adhesion wear.

Optical Applications

This publication focuses on the ultra precision manufacturing of hardened steel parts with single crystal diamond tools for optical applications such as injection moulding. Nowadays optical steel moulds are nickel plated, in order to be able to machine the surface with single crystalline diamond tools. One technology that has proven its potential for replacing this procedure is the ultrasonic assisted diamond turning technique. This process allows direct machining of hardened steel with single crystal diamond tools, which is conventionally not possible due to the high tool wear. The ultrasonic assisted diamond turning process is applied in order to machine different steel alloys that are conventionally used for mould manufacturing in injection moulding. The goal is to analyze the influence of the steel alloy and the material microstructure on the machining results. The presented analysis show the capabilities of this new technology and opens the door for it to compete with established manufacturing processes, such as the manufacturing of nickel plated mold inserts.
