In machining processes, surface integrity is a major quality-related performance output. In the case of difficult-to-cut materials, this frequently relates to residual stresses induced in the machined surface and subsurface. As cryogenic machining presents a sustainable alternative to conventional machining processes, in this work, cryogenic machining and the influence of cooling/lubrication conditions on the surface integrity generated during turning of Inconel 718 are presented. The results show that the cryogenic machining process generates larger compressive residual stresses, and prevail at deeper levels beneath the machined surface, thus resulting in improved product quality and performance characteristics in terms of fatigue life and wear resistance.

Reversible cutting method is a new research thesis proposed to shorten processing route, decrease tool number and handling time, increase machining efficiency. The aim of the presented work was to analysis the effects of reversible fine machining sequence on surface integrity in machined layer. Nonlinear hardening during reverse loading and the change of the Bauschinger effect factor with plastic strain were properly taken into account. In experiments, the residual stresses have been measured using the X-ray diffraction technique (at the surface of the workpiece and in depth). Moreover, micro-hardness and surface roughness of machined surface are presented. Experimental data for the range of cutting parameters tested showed that the reversible fine machining produce the tensile residual stresses at the surface, which are critical in the performance of the machined components. The experimental results of micro-hardness of reversible fine machining technique are smaller than that of general fine machining show that decreased plastic deformation of the surface layer and work-hardening. Surface roughness of machined surface with reversible finishing is discussed. Research results indicted that it can be adopted such planning which rough machining during advance stroke and fine machining or semi-finishing during return stroke in machining process. In this way, it has such advantages that increase machining efficiency and machining accuracy, decrease bending deformation.

Close Relationship

It is essential for superalloys (e.g., Inconel 718) to obtain an anticipated surface integrity after machining, especially for safety critical areas (e.g., aerospace). As one of the main characteristics for cutting tools, the rake angle has been recognized as a key factor that can significantly influence the machining process. Although there are large research interests and outcomes in the machining of nickel-based superalloys, most of them focus on the surface integrity and macroscale temperature observation, whereas the temperature distribution in the tool rake face is not clear. Thus, it is necessary to investigate the basic role of rake angles and the tool–workpiece interaction mechanism to determine the machining condition variations and surface integrity. In the present study, both experimental and numerical methods are employed to explore the cutting force, thermal distribution, and shear angles during the process and the metallurgy characteristics of the subsurface after machining, as well as the mechanical properties. The research has emphasized the importance of rake angles on both the cutting process and machined surface integrity, and has revealed the microscale temperature distribution in the tool rake face, which is believed to have a close relationship with the tool crater wear. In addition, it is clearly presented that the surface generated with positive rake angle tools generates the minimum subsurface deformation and less strain hardening on the workpiece.

Abstract Surface integrity of micro components is a major concern particularly in manufacturing industries as most geometry of the products must meet out necessary surface quality requirements. Advanced machining process like electrochemical micro machining possess the capabilities to machine micro parts with best surface properties exempting them from secondary operations. In this research work, different electrolytes have been employed for producing micro holes in A286 super alloy material to achieve the best surface quality and the measurement of surface roughness and surface integrity to evaluate the machined surface is carried out. The machined micro hole provides detailed information on the geometrical features. A study of parametric analysis meant for controlling surface roughness and improvement of surface integrity has been made to find out the suitable parameters for machining. The suitability of various electrolytes with their dissolution mechanism and the influence of various electrolytes have been thoroughly studied.

Analysis of the cutting process in machining of advanced alloys, which are typically difficult-to-machine materials, is a challenge that needs to be addressed. In a machining operation, cutting forces causes severe deformations in the proximity of the cutting edge, producing high stresses, strain, strain-rates and temperatures in the workpiece that ultimately affect the quality of the machined surface. In the present work, cutting forces generated in a vibro-impact and hot vibro-impact machining process of Ti-based alloy, using an in-house Ultrasonically Assisted Turning (UAT) setup, are studied. A three-dimensional, thermo-mechanically coupled, finite element model was developed to study the thermal and mechanical processes in the cutting zone for the various machining processes. Several advantages of ultrasonically assisted turning and hot ultrasonically assisted turning are demonstrated when compared to conventional turning.

The paper presents the surface integrity analysis in ball end milling of thin shaped cantilever plate of Inconel 718. It is noticed that the workpiece deflection has significantly contributed to machined surface integrity in terms of surface topography and subsurface microhardness. The ball end milling performed with 15° workpiece inclination with horizontal tool path produced higher surface integrity which varies with the location of machined surface region. In general, the mid portion of the machined plate shows lower surface roughness and microhardness with less surface defects.

The Impact

Nimonic C-263 is predominantly used in the manufacturing of heat susceptible intricate components in the gas turbine, aircraft, and automotive industries. Owing to its high strength, poor thermal conductivity, the superalloy is difficult to machine and causes rapid tool wear during conventional machining mode. Moreover, the unpleasant machining noise produced during machining severely disrupts the tool engineer’s concentration, thereby denying a precise and environment friendly machining operation. Hence, close dimensional accuracy, superior machined surface quality along with production economy, and pleasant work environment for the tool engineers is the need of an hour of the current manufacturing industry. To counter such issues, the present work attempts to compare and explore the machinability of two of the most popular machining strategies like minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) and cryogenic machining process during turning of Nimonic C-263 work piece in order to achieve an ideal machining environment. The machining characteristics are compared in terms of surface roughness (SR), power consumption (P), machining noise (S), nose wear (NW), and cutting forces (CF) to evaluate the impact of machining variables like cutting speed (Vc), feed (f), and depth of cut (ap) with a detailed parametric study and technical justification. Yet again, an investigation is conducted to compare both the machining strategies in terms of qualitative responses like chip morphology, total machining cost, and carbon emissions. The study revealed that cryogenic machining strategy is adequately proficient over MQL machining to deliver energy proficient and gratifying work environment for the tool engineers by reducing the cost of machining and improving their work efficiency.

Residual Stress Profile

Machining induced residual stresses have an important effect on the surface integrity. Effects of various factors on the distribution of residual stress profiles induced by different machining processes have been investigated by many researchers. However, the initial residual, as one of the important factor that affect the residual stress profile, is always been ignored. In this paper, the residual stress field induced by the quenching process is simulated by the FEM software as the initial condition. Then the initial residual stress field is used to study the residual stress redistribution after the machining process. The influence of initial stress on the stress formation is carried out illustrating with the mechanical and thermal loads during machining processes. The effects of cutting speed on the distribution of residual stress profile are also discussed. These results are helpful to understand how initial residual stresses are redistributed during machining better. Furthermore, the results in the numerical study can be used to explain the machining distortion problem caused by residual stress in the further work.

The effects of cutting conditions and tool wear on chip morphology and surface integrity during high speed machining of D2 tool steel (60–62 Hrc) are investigated experimentally and analytically in this paper. Polycrystalline Cubic Boron Nitride (PCBN) tools are used in this investigation. The chips and the subsurface of the workpiece are examined using optical and scanning electron microscopy. Microhardness measurements are performed on the surface and subsurface of the workpiece. The X-ray diffraction technique is used to measure the residual stresses induced in the machined surface. The paper is divided into two parts. Part 1 presents the results obtained from the micrographical analysis of the chips and the surfaces produced. Part 2 deals with microhardness and residual stresses of the machined surface. The micrographical analysis of the chips produced shows that different mechanisms of chip formation exist depending on the magnitude of the cutting pressure and tool wear. Saw toothed chips are produced during the machining of D2 tool steel if the cutting pressure exceeds approximately 4000 MPa. The metallographic analysis of the surface produced illustrates the damaged surface region that contains geometrical defects and changes in the subsurface metallurgical structure. The types of surface damage are dependent on the cutting conditions, tool geometry and the magnitude of the wear lands. [S1087-1357(00)00104-0]
