The Impact

The use of electrical energy and coolants/lubricants has been widely reported in mechanical machining. However, increased research and process innovation in high speed machining has brought about optimised manufacturing cycle times. This has promoted dry machining and the use of minimum quantity lubrication (MQL). This work understudies the impact of different cutting environments in machining H13 tool steel alloys at transition speed regime with emphasis on sustainable machining of the alloy. To achieve this, end milling tests were performed on AISI H13 steel alloy (192 BHN) on a MIKRON HSM 400 high speed machining centre using milling inserts. After each cutting pass, the milling insert was removed for tool wear measurement on the digital microscope. The electrical power consumed was measured with the Fluke 435 power clamp meter mounted on the three phase cable at the back of the machine. It was discovered that MQL has a promising advantage in terms of tool life with 25 minutes of machining, net power requirement of 10% when compared to dry cutting, and environmental benefits when machining H13 tool steel alloy. This work is fundamentally important in assessing the environmental credentials and resource efficiency regime for green machining of H13 tool steel alloysKeywords— H13 tool steel, green machining, process optimization, tool life, cutting environments, energy consumption

Abrasive water jet technology is among the unconventional ways of machining. In today's modern and progressive era is often used for cutting and machining of various types of materials because of lower costs and environmental impact, as the cutting tool is water, in our case, with the addition of abrasives. Objective of the measurements was to evaluate the impact of vibration on the technological head in abrasive water jet technology in changing the selected technological parameters and the flow rate of technological head. In the given experiment, the used material - steel Hardox 500 with a thickness of 10 mm. The effort was to investigate the effects of changes in the speed rate of technological head (by speeds - 40, 200, 400 mm / min) on the size of the vibration acceleration amplitude and its frequency. Based on the measured values ​​of vibration to the technological head create the database and from it is evaluated the data in selected softwares (LabVIEW, SignalExpress and Microsoft Excel). Findings and conclusions are formulated on the basis of graphical dependencies, envelopes frequency spectra and comparison chart of envelopes.

The Impact

Advance in semiconductor technologies enables seamless integration of hundreds of cores on a single silicon die, which requires high communication performance. To deal with the increasing communication complexity of System-on-Chip (SoC), Network-on-Chip (NoC) has been recently proposed as an alternative to the conventional point-to-point links and bus based communication fabrics. In practice, to facilitate NoC design evaluation and optimization, Poisson traffic or Bernoulli traffic models are generally assumed. However, actual measurements showed that real high speed network traffic always has strong correlations. The objective of this paper is to investigate the impact of traffic correlations on the performance of NoC design. Experimental results show that traffic correlation degrades the performance of NoC design and unrealistic traffic assumptions may yield unacceptable designs.

Inconel 718, a Nickel based superalloy is widely used for aerospace applications mainly due to its high temperature resistance and high strength to weight ratio. Its poor machinability is a limiting factor in commercial, cost intensive applications. This paper investigates the machinability of Inconel 718 in high speed drilling. The impact of the material on thrust forces, torque and chip microstructure have been measured at four different cutting speeds – 19, 27,43 and 67 m/min. The high tensile strength coupled with low thermal conductivity compounds the machining process. The thrust forces decrease with cutting speed, but the torque fluctuates at intermediate cutting speeds. Chip formation is continuous across cutting speeds, with thin cross sections and evidence of saw tooth edges. Inconel work hardens more than titanium alloys and shows good ductile to brittle transition at low temperatures creating chips of lesser length as observed using scanning electron microscopy.

Purpose This paper presents the results of mean unit weight of chips and their time to ignition measured on a test stand specially designed for this purpose. In addition, the temperature of chips in the cutting area and the morphology of chips produced in HSM milling (as a temperature indicator in the cutting area) are investigated. Also, different fractions of chips produced in the dry milling of Mg alloys AZ31 and AZ91HP by a PCD end mill are examined. Finally, the paper presents conclusions and recommendations with regard to safety and efficiency of dry milling processes for the aforementioned magnesium alloys. Design/methodology/approach Milling can be used as a finishing operation, particularly when using PCD end mills. The application of this mill type isparticularly important when producing different machine and device components, especially in the aircraft industry. What can occur in dry machining operations is self-ignition. It is therefore justified to investigate chip temperature in the cutting zone, to classify produced chip fractions and to determine their mass. Safe ranges of technological parameters can be additionally determined based on metallographic analysis of chip edge partial-melting. Findings The experimental results helped determine the effect of technological parameters of milling on chip temperature in the cutting zone, chip mass and fragmentation and chip morphology images. Practical implications The results reported in this work are innovative in both cognitive and practical aspect. The authors are convinced that this work can contribute to overcoming the mistrust of industrial practitioners toward dry milling of Mg alloys, and also with respect to the application of relatively higher cutting speeds in dry milling of these alloys than it is common practice in industry today. The study investigates the problem of safety in dry milling of Mg alloys. The study was motivated by the milling process itself and the formation of broken chip, which causes a significant change in the character of heat transfer. Originality/value The paper presents a method for multi-criteria safety assessment in dry milling operations. Safe and effective parameter ranges are defined with respect to chip temperature in the cutting zone, fraction number and chip mass.

The Impact

Tool wear during high speed machining process plays an important role in machining cost and efficiency. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of tribological properties of coatings on cutting performance. Finite element methods (FEM) were used to model the effect of coated and uncoated cutting tools (K10) on the machinability of the aluminum alloy 7050T7451. Uncoated, Single coated, such as TiC, TiN and Al2O3 and multi-coated tool were studied. All finite element models were assumed to be plane strain. To achieve constitutive model of Al7050T7451 under conditions of machining that high strain rate, high strain and high temperature occur, high speed impact experiment and material drawing experiment were done. Comparison of FEM results shows that the highest temperatures in tools, the temperature change rates of different tools from surface to its bulk material, and the temperatures in chips are changed greatly. It also shows that the cutting temperature of coated tool is lower than uncoated tools, but cutting forces change very little. All these results show that coatings can be used to reduce adhesion between a tool and a workpiece material. The wear resistance of coated tool can be improved effectively and tool life is increased correspondingly.
