One of the problem in metal cutting is tool wear. Its close relation to the expected tool life and quality of product, make tool wear become object of investigation. Eventough tool manufacturers always give recommendation on machining parameter, but they don't share the information on tool wear estimation. Some theory on tool wear has been proposed, but still need verification thru experimental works to determine parameters and constants of tool life typical to machine tool condition and machining process. In this research, experimental work and analysis of the influence of spindle speed (n, rpm), feeding speed (Vf, mm/min) and depth of cut (ap, mm)to surface roughness and tool wear on milling process using carbide ballnose with diameter of 10 mm on Al-7075 had been conducted. From the experiment, it can be concluded that tool wear has influence on surface roughness of product. Tool wear could be minimized by choosing optimum spindle speed and feeding speed.

The present research attempts to develop a hybrid coolant by mixing alumina nanoparticles with cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) into ethylene glycol-water (60:40) and investigate the viability of formulated hybrid nanocoolant (CNC-Al2O3-EG-Water) towards enhancing the machining behavior. The two-step method has been adapted to develop the hybrid nanocoolant at various volume concentrations (0.1, 0.5, and 0.9%). Results indicated a significant enhancement in thermal properties and tribological behaviour of the developed hybrid coolant. The thermal conductivity improved by 20-25% compared to the metal working fluid (MWF) with thermal conductivity of 0.55 W/m℃. Besides, a reduction in wear and friction coefficient was observed with the escalation in the nanoparticle concentration. The machining performance of the developed hybrid coolant was evaluated using Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) in the turning of mild steel. A regression model was developed to assess the deviations in the tool flank wear and surface roughness in terms of feed, cutting speed, depth of the cut, and nanoparticle concentration using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The mathematical modeling shows that cutting speed has the most significant impact on surface roughness and tool wear, followed by feed rate. The depth of cut does not affect surface roughness or tool wear. Surface roughness achieved 24% reduction, 39% enhancement in tool length of cut, and 33.33% improvement in tool life span. From this, the surface roughness was primarily affected by spindle cutting speed, feed rate, and then cutting depth while utilising either conventional water or composite nanofluid as a coolant. The developed hybrid coolant manifestly improved the machining behaviour.

Machining Parameter

Introduction. The machinability is typical criteria to be investigated and different authors suggested different parameters describing its quantification. Different parameters i. e. speed, feed, depth of cut, tool work-piece combination, machine types and its condition, cutting fluid, machinist expertise, etc. are contributing directly to the tool life. The selection of the tool for the machining impacts greatly on the economic viability of the machining in terms of energy usage and tooling costs. The method of investigation. The current research emphasis mainly on tool life investigation when machining the mild steel specimens ISRO 50, BIS 1732:1989 at constant cutting speed i.e. 200 m / min. In the industries the mild steel material is commonly used for various products manufacturing. Considering the high demands on productivity and surface finish, machining at 200 m / min is the preferred. The computerized numerical control machine (CNC DX-150) is used for the turning. The four corner insert (TNMG 120408) is used for different machining times i.e. 10, 15, 20 and 25 minutes respectively. The flank wear of the tool is measured with calibrated optical microscope. The temperature of the tool corner during machining is continuously measured for possible impact of temperature on bonding properties of the tool insert and impact on red hardness. Results and discussion. The plot of flank wear vs. machining time will give the value of tool life. The other quality output parameter, such as surface roughness, is measured after machining, indicating surface irregularities in root means square value. Efforts have been made to identify the relationship of tool life, machining time, the quantity of metal removed, surface roughness, and tool bit temperature.

Cutting fluid plays an important role in machining processes to achieve dimensional accuracy in reducing tool wear and improving the tool life. Conventional flood cooling method in machining processes is not cost effective and consumption of huge amount of cutting fluids is not healthy and environmental friendly. In micromachining, flood cooling is not recommended to avoid possible damage of the microstructures. Therefore, one of the alternatives to overcome the environmental issues to use minimum quantity of lubrication (MQL) in machining process. MQL is eco-friendly and has economical advantage on manufacturing cost. However, there observed lack of study on MQL in improving machined surface roughness in micromilling. Study of the effects of MQL on surface roughness should be carried out because surface roughness is one of the important issues in micromachined parts such as microfluidic channels. This paper investigates and compares surface roughness with the presence of MQL and dry cutting in micromilling of aluminium alloy 1100 using DT-110 milling machine. The relationship among depth of cut, feed rate, and spindle speed on surface roughness is also analyzed. All three machining parameters identified as significant for surface roughness with dry cutting which are depth of cut, feed rate, and spindle speed. For surface roughness with MQL, it is found that spindle speed did not give much influence on surface roughness. The presence of MQL provides a better surface roughness by decreasing the friction between tool and workpiece.

Aluminum 6061 is a common alloy which is widely used in aerospace and yacht construction industry. Generally machining of aluminum alloys inherently generates high chip sticking on tool face and changes the tool edge geometry, which not only reduces tool life but also impairs the product surface quality. This study investigated the tool life and tool wear mechanisms besides evaluating surface roughness in various cutting conditions to attain finest possible surface with minimum tool wear. Turning experiments performed under dry orthogonal cutting of Al6061 using carbide CVD tri-phase coated inserts with constant depth of cut, various cutting speeds and feed rates. Insert’s flank and rake faces analyzed to assess wear mechanisms. Additionally Scanning electron microscope (SEM) employed to clarify different types of wear. Surface integrity and effect of built up edge in deviating surface roughness were studied in each cutting condition. Additionally results of experiments demonstrated that built up edge took over cutting edge and with sacrificing surface roughness, tool life increased by decreasing pace of abrasive wear propagation on flank face. According to these experiments the main reasons of flank wear were abrasive and adhesion of aluminum on tool face.

Objective: For a dental material to be machinable for CAD/CAM technology, it must offer convenient machining, under a given set of cutting conditions. Quantitative evaluation of machinability has been assessed in literature through various parameters such as tool wear, penetration rates, surface roughness, cutting force and power. A machinable ceramic will typically demonstrate a higher tool penetration rate with signs of reduced diamond tool wear and edge chipping. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the feasibility of machining an experimental ceramic, 20 wt.% zirconia reinforced mica glass ceramics (G20Z) for indirect dental restorations and compare the tool penetration rates of G20Z to commercially available dental ceramics, Presintered Zirconia (PSZ) and IPS emax CAD. Material and Methods:  Precursors of base glass (SiO2 -Al2O3 -K2O -MgO-B2O3 -F) were melted at 15000C for 2 h in a platinum crucible and quenched in deionised water. The glass frit was ball milled with 20 wt. % YSZ (G20Z) and subject to two stage heat treatment in a muffle furnace. Specimens of G20Z (12 X 2 mm) were evaluated for their feasibility of machining under varying spindle speed, depth of cut, and feed rates. Influence of depth of cut, spindle speed and feed rate (vc=8000-16000 rpm, d=0.4-0.8 mm, f=0.1- 0.3 mm/tooth) on cutting forces, material response, surface roughness and tool wear were investigated. Tool penetration rates, tool wear and margin chipping were also evaluated and compared with Pre-sintered Zirconia (PSZ)  and e.max CAD in a custom dental milling surveyor at 30,000 rpm with a load of 0.98 N under water lubrication for 6 min. Tool penetration rates were calculated as the ratio of length of cut and milling time with a measuring microscope and scanning electron microscope was used for tool wear and edge chipping. ANOVA and Tukey Kramer tests were used for statistically comparing the means of each group. Results: Spindle speed and feed rate play a significant role in influencing surface roughness, thrust force, cutting forces and tool wear. Penetration rates of G20Z (0.32 ±0.12 mm/min) was significantly greater than PSZ (0.26 ±0.06 mm/min) and IPS e.max CAD (0.21 ±0.05 mm/min). SEM observations reveal tool abrasion and edge chipping regardless of the ceramic type. Conclusion: High spindle speeds delivers low cutting forces with an average surface roughness of 1.61 µm, with abrasive wear of the tool insert and brittle fracture of zirconia mica glass ceramic composites. G20Z with its machinable nature demonstrates greater tool penetration rates than PSZ and IPS e.max CAD. Tool wear and edge chipping is seen in all the investigated ceramics.   Keywords Machinability, Dental Ceramics, Mica Glass-Ceramics, Dental Zirconia, Tool penetration rates.

The objective of this project is to experimentally investigate the influence of Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) on tool wear and tool life in micro hardmilling. The experiments were performed on stainless steel using uncoated WC micro-mill with the nominal diameter of 508 microns. The tool wear is characterized by the volume of the material loss at the tool tip. In order to reveal the progression of the tool wear, the worn tool was examined periodically under SEM after a fixed amount of workpiece material removal (1.25 mm3 or 5 slots in this study). The tool life was characterized as the amount of material removed, instead of the conventional cutting times. The feedrate and the spindle speed were fixed, and two levels of axial depth of cut (50 and 75 microns) were compared. The higher depth of cut leads to longer tool life. The machining performance under MQL is superior to the dry machining for both process conditions in terms of the tool life. The cutting forces in feed direction and the surface roughness at the bottom of the slots were also examined during the experiments. The magnitude of the machining forces showed cyclic pattern for both MQL and dry machining. The SEM images and the cutting force signals suggested that the dominant mode of the tool wear in micro-milling is edge chipping and abrasive wear at the tool tip. The loss of the micro-grain of WC at the cutting edge leads to edge chipping, which reduces the effective cutting diameter; the abrasive wear enlarge the edge radius, causing the cutting force increase. As the cutting edge radius reaches a certain dimension, the whole edge was stripped off, a new edge formed with a smaller edge radius, and the cycle restarts. Under MQL cutting conditions, three cycles were observed before tool failure, while under dry machining conditions, the tool only experienced two cycles before tool breakage. The surface roughness at the bottom of the slots improved significantly with the application of MQL for all levels of the tool wear. The surface roughness did not increase drastically as the tool wear increased. It reached a plateau after the tool wear went into gradual wear state. Further experiments and theoretical analysis will be pursued in the future to gain a deeper understanding of tool wear mechanism in micro-milling.

The Cost

During a machining process, cutting parameters must be taken into account, since depending on them the cutting edge starts to wear out to the point that tool can fail and needs to be change, which increases the cost and time of production. Since wear is a negative phenomenon on the cutting tool, due to the fact that tool life is reduced, it is important to optimize the cutting variables to be used during the machining process, in order to increase tool life. This research is focused on the influence of cutting parameters such as cutting speed, feed per tooth and axial depth of cut on tool wear during a face milling operation. The Taguchi method is applied in this study, since it uses a special design of orthogonal array to study the entire parameters space, with only few numbers of experiments. Also a relationship between tool wear and the cutting parameters is presented. For the studies, a martensitic 416 stainless steel was selected, due to the importance of this material in the machining of valve parts and pump shafts.

This research work considered the high speed milling operation of Inconel 718 using a 4 flute solid carbide end mill tool without the use of coolant. Inconel 718 is a Nickel based Heat Resistance Super Alloy (HRSA) that is vastly used in the aerospace industries due to its excellent corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties. However, Inconel 718 is considered as a difficult-to-cut super alloy, which poses several problems when machining the material. The aim of this work is to investigate the effect and the influence of cutting parameters (feed rate, spindle speed, and depth of cut) on the quality of the machined surface as well as to evaluate the tool wear after machining. This evaluation of the surface roughness was done using a CNC milling machine at various parameters range for the values of feed rate (50-150 mm/min), spindle speed (2000-4000 RPM), and depth of cut (0.05-0.1 mm). The experiment was designed using Response Surface Analysis Method with Central Composite Design (CCD) to optimize the experimentation. The resulting tool wear and surface roughness after high speed machining were then analysed using ANOVA to determine the cutting parameters which is most affecting the surface roughness.

Machining technique using high spindle speed, high feed rate and shallow depth of cut utilize in High Speed Milling (HSM) machines offer several benefits such as increase of productivity, elimination of secondary and semi-finishing process, reduce tool load and small chips produced. By adjusting some of the machining parameters, non-HSM machine having lower spindle speed and feed rate could also take advantages some of the benefits mentioned above when applying the HSM technique. This experiment investigate the effects of varying combination of depth of cut and feed rate to tool wear rate and surface roughness during end milling of Aluminum and P20 tool steel in dry condition. The criterion for tool wear before it gets rejected is based on maximum flank wear, Vb of 0.6mm. Material removal rate, spindle speed and radial depth of cut are constant in this experiment. After preliminary machining trials, the combination starts with depth of cut of 2mm and feed rate of 45mm/min until the smallest depth of cut and highest feed rate of 0.03mm and 3000mm/min respectively. The obtained result shows that for both materials, feed rate significantly influences the surface roughness value while depth of cut does not as the surface roughness value keep increasing with the increase of feed rate and decreasing depth of cut. Whereas, tool wear rate almost remain unchanged indicates that material removal rate strongly contribute the wear rate. With no significant tool wear rate, this study demonstrates that HSM technique is possible to be applied in non-HSM machine with extra benefits of eliminating semi-finishing operation, reducing tool load for finishing, machining without coolant and producing smaller chip for ease of cleaning.
