Abstract Research has been carried out to determine the kinetics of coating formation on AISI 1045 steel with diffusion saturation with boron, chromium and titanium simultaneously. It was found that the experimental parameters of the thickness of the diffusion layer of borides over time outstrip the calculated values. The diffusion layer has a thickness of 120 μm with a saturation duration of 2.5 h, 155 μm with a saturation duration of 5 h, and 180 μm with a saturation duration of 7.5 h. In addition to studying the kinetics of the formation of a diffusion coating, also studied the distribution of microhardness over the cross section of the diffusion coating. The maximum microhardness of the diffusion coating is observed not on the surface, but at some distance from it. On average, at a depth of 45–60 µm from the surface. In this case, the microhardness on the surface of the diffusion coating, on the contrary, tends to take on a minimum value of about 1800 HV0.1. Such a distribution of microhardness it gives the parts the possibility of minor surface wear.

In the present work, a diffusion model was suggested to study the growth kinetics of Fe2B layers grown on the AISI 1045 steel by the pack-boriding treatment. The generated boride layers were analyzed by optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The applied diffusion model is based on the principle of mass conservation at the (Fe2B/ substrate) interface. It was used to estimate the boron diffusion coefficients of Fe2B in the temperature range of 1123-1273 K. A validation of the model was also made by comparing the experimental Fe2B layer thickness obtained at 1253 K for 5 h of treatment with the predicted value. Basing on our experimental results, the boron activation energy was estimated as 180 kJ mol-1 for the AISI 1045 steel.

The objective of the present work is to simulate surface roughness in Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machine by Fuzzy Modeling of AISI 1045 Steel. To develop the fuzzy model; cutting depth, feed rate and speed are taken as input process parameters. The predicted results are compared with reliable set of experimental data for the validation of fuzzy model. Based upon reliable set of experimental data by Response Surface Methodology twenty fuzzy controlled rules using triangular membership function are constructed. By intelligent model based design and control of CNC process parameters, we can enhance the product quality, decrease the product cost and maintain the competitive position of steel.

AbstractQuench hardening aims at the microstructural transformation of steels in order to improve hardness and mechanical strength. The aim phase is, in most cases, the martensite. It is necessary to heat the material until it obtains its austenitization and quenching by immersion in a fluid. Currently, it is common to use watery polymeric solutions in this procedure. These fluids, which are the mixture of polymers in water, vary their thermal exchange capacity depending on the concentrations applied. The increase in concentration minimizes the removal of heat from the part, reducing the formation capacity of martensite, and developing a lower hardness and strong steel. In this work, microstructural characteristics and properties of AISI 1045 steel quenched in solutions based on polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in 10, 15, 20, and 25% concentration were evaluated. The microstructural characterization quantified the percentage of the phases in each concentration, demonstrating a reduction of martensite as the concentrations were high. The investigation of the samples by x-ray diffraction confirmed the absence of austenite retained in the material. Furthermore, a microhardness scale between the core and the surface was constructed, in which a reduction gradient of the indices of this property towards the core of the sample was evidenced.

When applying the non-parallel shear zone model to predict the cutting process parameters of carbon steel workpiece, it is found that there is a big error between the prediction results and the experimental values. And also, the former approach to obtain the relevant cutting parameters of the non-parallel shear zone model by applying coordinate transformation to the parallel shear zone model has a theoretical error – it erroneously regards the determinant (|J|) of the Jacobian matrix (J) in the coordinate transformation as a constant. The shape of the shear zone obtained when |J| is not constant is drew and it is found that the two boundaries of the shear zone are two slightly curved surfaces rather than two inclined planes. Also, the error between predicted values and experimental values of cutting force and cutting thrust is slightly smaller than that of constant |J|. A corrected model where |J| is a variable is proposed. Since the specific values of inclination of the shear zone (α, β), the thickness coefficient of the shear zone (as) and the constants related to the material (f0, p) are not given in the former work, a method to obtain the above-mentioned five constants by solving multivariable constrained optimization problem based on experimental data was also proposed; based on the obtained experimental data of AISI 1045 steel workpiece cutting force, cutting thrust, chip thickness, the results of five above-mentioned model constants are obtained. It is found that, compared with prediction from uncorrected model, the cutting force and cutting thrust of AISI 1045 steel predicted by the corrected model with the obtained constants has a better agreement with the experimental values obtained by Ivester.

The present work proposes to enhance the thermal interface denition in Finite Element (FE) simulations of machining. A user subroutine has been developed in Abaqus/Explicit © to implement a new experimentally-based heat partition model extracted from tribological tests. A 2D Arbitrary-Lagragian-Eulerian (ALE) approach is employed to simulate dry orthogonal cutting of AISI 1045 steel with coated carbide inserts. Simulation results are compared to experimental ones over a whole range of cutting speeds and feed rates in terms of average cutting forces, chip thickness, tool chip contact length and heat flux. This study emphasizes that heat transfer and temperature distribution in the cutting tool are drastically in uenced by the thermal formulation used at the interface. Consistency of the numerical results such as heat flux transmitted to the tool, peak temperature as well as hot spot location can be denitively improved.

This paper describes an electronic-mechanical system which utilizes sonic signals to detect the degree of cutting edge wear in metalworking tools and automatically trigger a cutting edge change. A packaged electronic unit reads out sonic vibrations from an instrumented machine-tool workpiece cutting-tool system to determine degree of cutting edge wear during a turning cut. At a predetermined comparative sonic ratio, the electronic unit commands stoppage of the machine tool feed, retraction of the tool and automatic index of the cemented carbide insert to the next good cutting edge. The latter function is performed by a prototype mechanical device. The paper describes the system and cites data generated during use of the sonic detection system with five grades of cemented carbide cutting AISI 1045 steel. Results under varying cutting conditions are reported. The authors speculate on the possibility of combining such a wear detection and cutting edge indexing arrangement with a computer to provide a complete system for optimum productivity and economy in a completely automatic operation.
