The present study aims to investigate the wear mechanisms of a TiN-coated mixed ceramic tool prevalent under different machining conditions during hard turning of hot tool die steel. The different wear mechanisms observed are abrasion wear at low cutting speed, low feed rate, and highest work piece hardness; formation of protective layer and built-up edge (BUE) resulting from tribochemical reactions between constituents of tool and work piece material at moderate speed. High temperature accompanied by high cutting speed resulted in the removal of the protective layer and suppressed the BUE formation. Hard carbide particles of work material at a higher feed rate severely gouged the tool flank land. Chipping and brittle fractures were observed at very low and high depth of cut. Adhesion of work piece material followed by plastic deformation and notching was clearly visible at low work piece hardness. The influence of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, and work piece hardness on the progressive tool flank wear, and flank wear rate (VBr-μm/km) in the steady wear region was also analysed.

The aim of the present investigation was to identify the wear mechanisms of TiN-coated CBN tools prevalent under different machining conditions during hard turning of hot tool die steel. The different wear mechanisms observed were abrasion wear at low cutting speed, low feed rate, and high workpiece hardness; formation of a transferred layer resulting from tribochemical reactions between constituents of the tool and workpiece material at high speed; and the formation of built-up edges at moderate cutting speed. Hard carbide particles of the work material at higher feed rate severely abraded the tool flank land, resulting in shallow grooves due to the detachment of CBN grains. At greater depth of cut, the built-up edges and transferred layer reduced friction and tool wear. Excessive adhesion of workpiece material followed by plastic deformation and notching were clearly visible at low workpiece hardness (47 HRC). The influence of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, and workpiece hardness on the progressive tool flank wear, i.e. flank wear rate (VBr, μm/mm) in the steady wear region, was also analysed. The flank wear rate was observed to decrease with increase in cutting speed, depth of cut, and workpiece hardness, but after an initial decrease it increased with increase in feed rate.

AISI D3 steel is a new kind of hardened tool steel with excellent wear resistance. This hard material receives wide promotion, investigation, and application in the die manufacturing industries. In the machining of AISI D3 steel, tool wear has a close relationship with the presence of different constituent elements in the workpiece material and cutting conditions. This study reports an improved experimental investigation approach to the analysis of effect of cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut on cutting forces, surface roughness, tool wear, and chip morphology in high-speed turning of AISI D3 steel using a hybrid TiN-coated Al2O3 + TiCN mixed ceramic insert. The range of each parameter is set at different levels for the analysis purpose. The experimental observations show that the cutting force is predominantly influenced by the feed rate accompanied by the depth of cut. The predominant factor influencing flank wear is the feed rate accompanied by the depth of cut and cutting speed. Feed rate is one of the dominating factors that influences the surface finish characteristics. The characterization of tool wear and chip morphology was performed by a scanning electron microscope supplied with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy pattern. The results demonstrated that the predominant wear mechanism of the multilayered hybrid-coated tool was flank wear, crater wear, adhesion wear, and abrasive wear.

The current work presents the development of cost model for tooling during high speed hard turning of AISI 4340 hardened steel using regression analysis. A set of experimental data using ceramic cutting tools, composed approximately of Al2O3 (70%) and TiC (30%) on AISI 4340 heat treated to a hardness of 60 HRC was obtained in the following design boundary: cutting speeds (175-325 m/min), feed rate (0.075-0.125 m/rev), negative rake angle (0 to -12) and depth of cut of (0.1-0.15) mm. The output data is used to develop a new model in predicting the tooling cost using in terms of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and rake angle. Box Behnken Design was used in developing the model. Predictive regression model was found to be capable of good predictions the tooling cost within the boundary design.

High speed machining has many advantages in reducing time to the market by increasing the material removal rate. However, final surface quality is one of the main challenges for manufacturers in high speed machining due to the increasing of flank wear rate. In high speed machining, the cutting zone is under high pressure associated with high temperature that lead to increasing of the flank wear rate in which affect the final quality of the machined surface. Therefore, one of the main concerns to the manufacturer is to predict the flank wear to estimate and predict the surface roughness as one of the main outputs of the machining processes. The aim of this study is to determine experimentally the optimum cutting parameters: depth of cut, cutting speed (Vc) and feed rate (f) that maintaining low flank wear (Vb). Taguchi method has been applied in this experiment. The Taguchi method has been universally used in engineering analysis.  JMP statistical analysis software is used to analyse statically the development of flank wear rate during high speed milling of hardened steel AISI D2 to 60 HRD. The experiment was conducted in the following boundaries: cutting speed 200-400 m/min, feed rate of 0.01-0.05 mm/tooth and depth of cut of 0.1-0.2 mm. Analysis of variance ANOVA was conducted as one of important tool for statistical analysis. The result showed that cutting speed is the most influential input factors with 70.04% contribution on flank wear.

The wear characteristics and life of Al2O3/(W,Ti)C ceramic tool in turning NbCp-reinforced iron-based P/M composites was investigated. Experimental results indicate that cutting parameters have an influence on tool wear, among which cutting speed and depth of cut seem to be more prominent. The maximum flank wear rapidly increases as the increase in cutting speed and depth of cut. While, it increases gradually as the decrease in feed rate. Meanwhile, an empirical model of tool life is established, from which the influence of cutting speed and depth of cut on tool life is far greater than that of feed rate. Also from the empirical model, the preferable range of cutting parameters was obtained.

AbstractEffect of cryogenic hard turning parameters (cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut) on surface roughness (Ra) and micro-hardness (µH) that constitute surface integrity (SI) of the machined surface of alloy steel AISI 52100 is investigated. Multilayer hard surface coated (TiN/TiCN/Al2O3/TiN) insert on CNC lathe is used for turning under different cutting parameters settings. RSM based Central composite design (CCD) of experiment is used to collect data for Ra and µH. Validity of assumptions related to the collected data is checked through several diagnostic tests. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) is used to determine main and interaction effects. Relationship between the variables is established using quadratic regression model. Both Ra and µH are influenced principally by the cutting speed and the feed rate. Model equations are found to predict accurate values of Ra and µH. Finally, desirability function approach for multiple response optimization is used to produce optimum SI.

Low-rigidity thin-walled parts are components of many machines and devices, including high precision electric micro-machines used in control and tracking systems. Unfortunately, traditional machining methods used for machining such types of parts cause a significant reduction in efficiency and in many cases do not allow obtaining the required accuracy parameters. Moreover, they also fail to meet modern automation requirements and are uneconomical and inefficient. Therefore, the aim of provided studies was to investigate the dependency of cutting forces on cutting parameters and flank wear, as well as changes in cutting forces induced by changes in heating current density and machining parameters during the turning of thin-walled parts. The tests were carried out on a specially designed and constructed turning test stand for measuring cutting forces and temperature at specific cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut values. As part of the experiments, the effect of cutting parameters and flank wear on cutting forces, and the effect of heating current density and turning parameters on changes in cutting forces were analyzed. Moreover, the effect of cutting parameters (depth of cut, feed rate, and cutting speed) on temperature has been determined. Additionally, a system for controlling electro-contact heating and investigated the relationship between changes in cutting forces and machining time in the operations of turning micro-machine casings with and without the use of the control system was developed. The obtained results show that the application of an electro-contact heating control system allows to machine conical parts and semi-finished products at lower cutting forces and it leads to an increase in the deformation of the thin-walled casings caused by runout of the workpiece.

The present study addresses the machinability investigation in finish dry hard turning of high strength low alloy steel with coated ceramic tool by considering cutting speed, feed and depth of cut as machining parameters. The technological parameters like surface roughness, flank wear, chip morphology and economical feasibility have been considered to investigate the machinability performances. Twenty seven set of trials according to full factorial design of experiments are performed and analysis of variance, multiple regression method, Taguchi method, desirability function approach and finally Gilbert’s approach are subsequently applied for parametric influence study, mathematical modeling, multi-response optimization, tool life estimation and economic analysis. Results indicated that feed and cutting speed are the most significant controlled as well as dominant factors for hard turning operation if the minimization of the machined surface roughness and tool flank wear is considered. Abrasions, adhesion followed by plastic deformation have been observed to be the principal wear mechanism for tool life estimation and observed tool life for coated ceramic insert is 47[Formula: see text]min under optimum cutting conditions. The total machining cost per part is ensued to be lower ($0.29 only) as a consequence of higher tool life, reduction in downtime and enhancement in savings, which finds economical benefits in hard turning. The current work demonstrates the substitution of conventional, expensive and slow cylindrical grinding process, and proposes the most expensive CBN tool alternative using coated ceramic tools in hard turning process considering techno-economical and ecological aspects.

This article reports an experimental assessment of surface quality generated in the precision turning of AISI 4340 steel alloy using conventional round and wiper nose inserts for different cutting conditions. A three-factor (each at 4 levels) full factorial design of experiment was followed for feed rate, cutting speed, and depth of cut, with resulting machined surface quality characterized by resulting average roughness (Ra). The results show that, for the provided range of cutting conditions, lower surface roughness values were obtained using wiper inserts compared with conventional inserts, indicating a superior performance. When including the type of insert as a qualitative factor, ANOVA revealed that the type of insert was most important in determining surface roughness and material removal rate, with feed rate as the second most significant, followed by the interaction of feed rate and type of insert. It was found that using wiper inserts allowed simultaneous increases in feed rate, cutting speed, and depth of cut, while providing better surface quality of lower Ra, compared to the global minimum value that could be achieved using the conventional insert. These findings show that wiper inserts produce better surface quality and a material removal rate up to ten times higher than that obtained with conventional inserts. This clearly indicates the tremendous advantages of high surface quality and productivity that wiper inserts can offer when compared with the conventional round nose type in precision hard turning of AISI 4340 alloy steel.
