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.

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.

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.

Abstract Improving the surface quality of additive manufactured parts like poly lactic acid (+) is an important study that is currently being carried out by researchers. To reach the high quality, different conventional and non-conventional methods are applied. In this study, the capability of ultrasonic vibration in drilling of an additive manufactured poly lactic acid (+)was examined. The process was implemented in two methods: conventional and vibratory drilling. Then, thrust force and chip type were analyzed and the effect of them on surface roughness, delamination, circularity, and cylindricality have been investigated. As a result, it was indicated that lower thrust force and broken chips, which were generated in ultrasonic drilling, caused the surface quality parameters to be improved compared to the conventional method.

Purpose Micro-holes are drilled and plated in flexible printed circuit boards (FPCs) for connecting circuits from different layers. More holes, with diameters smaller than 0.3 mm, are required to be drilled in smaller areas with flexible circuits’ miniaturization. The micro-hole quality of micro-drilling is one of the biggest issues of the flexible circuit manufacturers’ production. However, it is not easy to control the quality of micro-holes. The purpose of this study was to conduct research on the tool wear characteristics of FPC drilling process and its influence on micro-hole quality to improve the micro-hole quality of FPC. Design/methodology/approach The tool-wear characteristics of micro-drills after FPC drilling were observed. The influence of spindle speed, feed rate, number of drilled holes and entry board materials on tool-wear was analyzed. The hole qualities of FPC micro-drilling were measured and observed. The relationship between tool-wear and hole quality was analyzed. Findings The result showed that the tool-wear characteristics of FPC micro-drilling was similar to the tool-wear characteristics of rigid printed circuit board (RPC) micro-drilling. Abrasive wear occurred on both the main cutting edges and the chisel edges of micro-drills, even though there was no glass fiber reinforcing the cloth inside FPC. Resin adhesion was observed on the chisel edge. The influence of feed and number of drilled holes on tool-wear was significant. Tool-wear significantly influences the hole quality of FPC. Tool-wear will largely decrease the hole position accuracy of FPC micro-holes. Tool-wear will increase the thickness of PI nail heads and the height of exit burrs. Fracture was the main difference between tool wear of FPC and RPC micro-drilling. Resin adhesion of RPC was much more severe than FPC micro-drilling. Increasing the spindle speed properly may improve tool life and hole quality. Originality/value The technology and manufacturing of FPC has been little investigated. Research on micro-drilling FPC and research data is lacking so far. The micro-hole quality directly affects the reliability of FPC. Thus, improving the micro-hole quality of FPC is very important.

Abstract The usage of CFRP and Ti stacks in the aerospace industry has widely increased due to its mechanical properties and improved structural functions but at the same time, different mechanical and thermal properties of the CFRP and Ti makes the process difficult. Major apprehensions in the drilling of CFRP/Ti stacks include rapid tool wear and poor hole quality. Typically, the surface quality of the holes in the drilling of CFRP/Ti stack is poor due to delamination, the progression of hole diameter in CFRP and burr formation in Ti. Moreover, the flank wear on the tool also influences the surface quality of the hole produced. Therefore, the present study is mainly focused on the influence of cutting parameters on cutting forces, hole quality and tool wear characteristics. Drilling was performed on CFRP/Ti stack using coated and uncoated carbide tools. The obtained results revealed a significant correlation between tool wear and delamination characteristics.
