Single crystal Ni3Al-based superalloy has excellent comprehensive performance.To study the micro-milling surface quality of Ni3Al-based superalloy, this article used two-edged carbide alloy micro-milling tool with 0.8mm diameter, then orthogonal experiment of three factors and five levels was implemented to the micro-milling of typical single crystal Ni3Al-based superalloy IC10. The primary and secondary factors of the impact on the micro-milling surface quality were found from spindle speed, feed rate, milling depth by range analysis, and the ideal cutting process parameters combination was optimized and obtained, then its cutting mechanism and the reason of affecting the surface quality were analyzed. The experiment result has certain guiding significance to the micro-milling mechanism of single crystal superalloy.

Micro milling is a machining method of high precision and efficiency for micro components and features. In order to study the surface quality of single crystal materials in micro milling, the two-edged cemented carbide tool milling cutter with 0.4 mm diameter was used, and the orthogonal experiment was completed on the micro-milling of single crystal aluminum material. Through the analysis of statistical results, the primary and secondary factor which impacting on surface quality were found as follows: spindle speed, feed rate, milling depth. The ideal combination of optimized process parameters were obtained, when the spindle speed was 36000 r/min, the milling depth was 10 μm, the feed rate was 80 μm/s, which made the milling surface roughness is 0.782 μm and minimal. Single crystal materials removal mechanism were revealed, and the influence of cutting parameters on micro-milling surface were discussed, the reason of tool wear was analyzed. Those provide a certain theoretical and experimental basis for micro milling of single crystal materials.

Custom-built Miniature Machine Tools (MMTs) are now becoming more popular with the demand for reduced energy consumption and workshop floor when machining small/medium batch size micro-components. This paper investigates the capability of a custom-built 4-axis MMT through machining an “adapted standard‟ of micro-testpiece. The experiments have been carried out in two different materials: Carbon Steel (AISI 1040) and Titanium Alloyed (TiAl6V4) using solid carbide flat end mill cutters with 0.6mm diameter. From here, the surface quality and geometrical accuracy of the machined testpiece are evaluated and analysed. The investigation has shown that acceptable geometrical accuracies and surface quality of the machined micro-parts can be achieved using the in-house developed MMT. These results show that the use of the custom-made MMT does not hinder the micro-milling process to produce a good and satisfactory surface quality (Ra=0.04-0.07μm) and acceptable geometrical accuracy.

Sapphire substrates with different crystal orientations are widely used in optoelectronic applications. In this work, focused ion beam (FIB) milling of single-crystal sapphire with A-, C-, and M-orientations was performed. The material removal rate (MRR) and surface roughness (Sa) of sapphire with the three crystal orientations after FIB etching were derived. The experimental results show that: The MRR of A-plane sapphire is slightly higher than that of C-plane and M-plane sapphires; the Sa of A-plane sapphire after FIB treatment is the smallest among the three different crystal orientations. These results imply that A-plane sapphire allows easier material removal during FIB milling compared with C-plane and M-plane sapphires. Moreover, the surface quality of A-plane sapphire after FIB milling is better than that of C-plane and M-plane sapphires. The theoretical calculation results show that the removal energy of aluminum ions and oxygen ions per square nanometer on the outermost surface of A-plane sapphire is the smallest. This also implies that material is more easily removed from the surface of A-plane sapphire than the surface of C-plane and M-plane sapphires by FIB milling. In addition, it is also found that higher MRR leads to lower Sa and better surface quality of sapphire for FIB etching.
