Ultrasonic Cutting

We propose ultrasonic rotary cutting, in which ultrasonic vibrations are imparted to a rotating cemented carbide cylindrical tool to cut hardened steel to reduce the cutting resistance and improve the properties of the machined surface, and investigate the machining characteristics. Machining experiments were conducted under dry and wet conditions to verify the effects of the ultrasonic vibrations. The surface produced via ultrasonic rotary cutting was intermittently machined, which is characteristic of ultrasonic cutting. In dry machining, the cutting resistance was reduced by approximately 20%, and the surface roughness of the machined surface was reduced by approximately 30% when the cutting speed was below the critical speed. We also demonstrated that the surface roughness was improved by ultrasonic vibrations when the cutting speed was equal to or above the critical speed. A similar tendency was observed in wet machining with longer cutting lengths. We then applied ultrasonic rotary cutting to machine a straight R groove in hardened steel and showed that the cutting resistance was reduced, and the tool engagement was improved.

Abstract - Magnesium and magnesium alloys is one of materials that worldwide used on automotive components due to very good  strength to weight ratio, resistant to corrosion, lighter compare to steel materials. Other than that magnesium has an advantage in easy to form and good machinability.  Nevertheless, magnesium known as metal which is easy to burned because of magnesium has low melting point. To maintain magnesium from burning quickly when proses machining, it needs to use coolant or lubricant to reduce temperature. Using of coolant when machining process can reduce temperature on cutting tool and work piece material, while using of lubricant can reduce friction between the cutting tool and work piece mateial. However, using of coolant and lubricant can harm for the environment and also coolant difficult to destroyed. Therefore, an alternative method to reduce the temperature when machining of magnesium alloy is using  the rotary cutting tool system. In the rotary cutting tool system, the cutting tool has a time to experience cooling in the period time. Other than aspect of temperature, surface roughness values are representative of surface of quality of produced componens. In this research, surface roughness value of magnesium alloy of AZ31 observed in ranges of work piece cutting speed of  (Vw) 25, 50, 120, 160, 200 m/min, rotary cutting speed of (Vt) 25, 50, 75 m/min, feed rate of (f) 0,05  and 0,10 mm/rev, and depth of cut of 0.2 mm. The turning process was done by using two kinds of diameter of rotary cutting tools are 16 and 20 mm, and without applying of coolant. The results of the research showed that the minimum surface roughness value of machined surface was 0,62𝝻m by using insert with diameter of 16 mm, while the maximum surface roughness value of machined surface was 2,86 𝝻m by using insert with diameter of 20 mm. This result stated that the increase in the diameter of rotary cutting tool gives a significant effect on the produced surface roughness value. Factor of feed rate also gives a significant contribution on the surface roughness value of machined magnesium surface.  The increase in feed rate generated significantly surface roughness value as long as the trials experiments. The produced surface roughness values inversely proportional to the cutting speed of rotary cutting tool.Keywords - magnesium, rotary tool, surface roughness, turning.

Hard milling of hardened steel has wide application in mould and die industries. However, milling induced surface finish has received little attention. An experimental investigation is conducted to comprehensively characterize the surface roughness of AISI D2 hardened steel (58-62 HRC) in end milling operation using TiAlN/AlCrN multilayer coated carbide. Surface roughness (Ra) was examined at different cutting speed (v) and radial depth of cut (dr) while the measurement was taken in feed speed, Vf and cutting speed, Vc directions. The experimental results show that the milled surface is anisotropic in nature. Surface roughness values in feed speed direction do not appear to correspond to any definite pattern in relation to cutting speed, while it increases with radial depth-of-cut within the range 0.13-0.24 µm. In cutting speed direction, surface roughness value decreases in the high speed range, while it increases in the high radial depth of cut. Radial depth of cut is the most influencing parameter in surface roughness followed by cutting speed.

Machine tool chatter is a dynamic instability of the cutting process. Chatter results in poor part surface finish, damaged cutting tool, and an irritating and unacceptable noise. Exten¬sive research has been undertaken to study the mechanisms of chatter formation. Efforts have been also made to prevent the occurrence of chatter vibration. Even though some progress have been made, fundamental studies on the mechanics of metal cutting are necessary to achieve chatter free operation of CNC machine tools to maintain their smooth operating cycle. The same is also true for Vertical Machining Centres (VMC), which operate at high cutting speeds and are capable of offering high metal removal rates. The present work deals with the effect of work materials, cutting conditions and diameter of end mill cutters on the frequency-amplitude characteristics of chatter and on machined surface roughness. Vibration data were recorded using an experimental rig consisting of KISTLER 3-component dynamometer model 9257B, amplifier, scope meters and a PC.  Three different types of vibrations were observed. The first type was a low frequency vibration, associated with the interrupted nature of end mill operation. The second type of vibration was associated with the instability of the chip formation process and the third type was due to chatter. The frequency of the last type remained practically unchanged over a wide range of cutting speed.  It was further observed that chip-tool contact processes had considerable effect on the roughness of the machined surface.Key Words: Chatter, Cutting Conditions, Stable Cutting, Surface Roughness.

3D Surface Roughness

This work performed molecular dynamic simulations to study the 2D profile and 3D surface topography in the nanometric cutting process. The least square mean method was used to model the evaluation criteria for the surface roughness at the nanometric scale. The result showed that the cutting speed was the most important factor influencing the spacing between the peaks, the sharpness of the peaks, and the randomness of the profile. The plastic deformation degree of the machined surface at the nanometric scale was significantly influenced by the cutting speed and depth of cut. The 2D and 3D surface roughness parameters exhibited a similar variation tendency, and the parameters Ra and Rq tended to increase gradually with an increase in the cutting speed and a decrease in the depth of cut. Finally, it is concluded that at the nanometric scale, the 3D surface roughness parameters could more accurately reflect the real surface characteristics than the 2D parameters.

Abstract Application of liquid carbon dioxide to improve cutting performance in micro-end milling of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy was proposed in this study. It was found that the machined roughness decreased with the cutting speed as observed in the conventional cutting, when a 0.5 mm diameter end milling cutter was used in dry cutting. But, the tiny and shattered chips produced by the use of 0.3 mm diameter cutter could adhere on the machined surface and deteriorate surface finish, if the cutting speed was higher than 40 m/min. Cutting temperature was effectively decreased by applying liquid carbon dioxide during micromilling, which in turn reduced the amount of chips adhering on the machined surface and lowered flank wear. The surface roughness Ra at a cutting speed of 70 m/min was improved from 0.09 μm under dry cutting to 0.04 μm under the liquid carbon dioxide assisted cutting condition. And there were no flank wear and very few burrs left on the machined surface for the condition used in the experiment. The height of the burrs was only 25% of that under dry cutting. More, minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) was proposed to be applied together with the liquid carbon dioxide to enhance lubrication effect. It was noted that the machined surface roughness was further decreased by 15% as compared with that when the liquid carbon dioxide was applied alone. The height of burrs was reduced from 32 μm to 16 μm.

Abstract High speed cutting (HSC) technology has the characteristics of high material removal rates and high machining precision. In order to study the relationships between chip morphology and machining surface characteristic in high speed cutting of superalloy Inconel718. High-speed orthogonal cutting experiment are carried out by used a high speed cutting device based on split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). The specimen surfaces and collected chips were then detected with optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and three-dimensional surface profile measuring instrument. The results show that within the experimental parameters (cutting speed from 8–16m/s, depth of cut 0.1–0.5mm), the obtained chips are sawtooth chips and periodic micro-ripple appear on the machined surface. With the cutting speed increases, machining surface roughness is decreases from 1.4 to 0.99μm, and the amplitude of periodic ripples also decreases. With the cutting depth increases, the machining surface roughness increases from 0.96 to 5.12μm and surface topography becomes worse. With the increase of cutting speed and depth of cut, the chips are transform from continues sawtooth to sawtooth fragment. By comparing the frequency of surface ripples and sawtooth chips, it is found that they are highly consistent.

Frequently, on the drawings of mechanical parts, only indications concerning the surface roughness parameter Ra and, relatively rarely, the surface roughness parameter Rz are included. However, the study of the machined surface roughness highlights the necessity to use yet other surface roughness parameters, in order to have a clearer image on the state of the machined surface. Some other surface roughness parameters possible to be used and presenting importance, without the parameters Ra and Rz, were highlighted. One took into consideration the possibility of measuring parameters Rsk and Rmr by means of the available surface roughness testers. Experimental researches of turning by applying the method of full factorial experiment were developed. As input factors in turning process, the cutting speed, the feed rate and the tool nose radius were used. The experimental results were mathematically processed, being determined empirical mathematical models that highlight the influence of certain input factors of turning process on the values of some surface roughness parameters characterized by a more restricted use

Surface integrity is particularly important for the aerospace industry components in order to permit longer service life and maximized its reliability. This present work compares the performance of palm oil and synthetic ester on surface roughness, surface defect, microhardness and subsurface deformation when high speed drilling of Ti-6Al-4V under MQL condition. The drilling tests were conducted with AlTiN coated carbide tool. The surface roughness decreased with increasing in cutting speed and thicker subsurface deformation was formed underneath the machined surface. Grooves, cavities, pit holes, microcracks and material smearing were the dominant surface damages thus deteriorated the machined surface. For both lubricants, the machined surface experienced from thermal softening and work hardening effect thus gave a variation in microhardness values. The results indicated the substantial benefit of MQL by palm oil on surface integrity.

In this paper, the surface integrity is studied when machining the aeronautical titanium alloys. Surface roughness, lay, defects, microhardness and microstructure alterations are studied. The result of surface roughness judges that the CVD-coated carbide fails to produce better Ra value than the uncoated. Lay is characterized by cutting speed and feed speed directions. Feed mark, tearing surface, chip layer formation as built up layer (BUL), and deposited microchip are the defects. Microhardness is altered down to 350 microns beneath the machined surface. The first 50 microns is the soft sub-surface caused by thermal softening in ageing process. Microstructure alteration is observed in this sub-surface. Down to 200 microns is the hard sub-surface caused by the cyclic internal work hardening and then it is gradually decreasing to the bulk material hardness. It is concluded that dry machining titanium alloy is possible using uncoated carbide with cutting condition limited to finish or semi-finish for minimizing surface integrity alteration.
