Abstract given its favourable comprehensive properties, titanium alloy has been extensively developed and used in numerous fields. However, its low thermal conductivity and strong chemical activity have led to its reputation as a difficult-to-machine material. Thus, graphene nanoparticles and sulfur-based extreme pressure (EP) additive were added to rapeseed oil to increase the lubrication and cooling properties of the machining region. In this study, three lubricants were used to machine titanium alloy: rapeseed oil+graphene+sulfur-based EP additive, rapeseed oil+sulfur-based EP additive, and rapeseed oil; and the subsequent wear of cutting tools, cutting temperature, surface roughness, and cutting force were compared. The most favourable results were found for the combination of rapeseed oil+graphene+sulfur-based EP additive, effectively decreasing the temperature of the cutting area and wear of cutting tools. In comparison with rapeseed oil, the flank wear value decreased by 56.4%. Similarly, the surface roughness and cutting force with the rapeseed oil+graphene+sulfur-based EP additive were lowest, showing a decrease of 36.1% and 27.0% respectively when compared with rapeseed oil.

Machining Performance

The cutting tool heats up during the cutting of high-performance super alloys and it negatively affects the life of the cutting tool. Improved tool life can enhance both the machinability and sustainability of the cutting process. To improve the tool life preferably cutting fluids are utilized. However, the majority of cutting fluids are non-biodegradable in nature and pose harmful threats to the environment. It has been established in the metal cutting literature that introducing microgrooves at the cutting tool rake face can significantly reduce the coefficient of friction (COF). Reduction in the COF promotes anti-adhesive behavior that improves the tool life. The current study numerically investigates the orthogonal cutting process of AISI 630 Stainless Steel using different micro grooved cutting tools. Results of the numerical simulations point to the positive influence of micro grooves on tool life. The results of the main effects found that the cutting temperature was decreased by approximately 10% and 7% with rectangular and triangular micro grooved tools, respectively. Over machining performance indicated that rectangular micro groove tools provided comparatively better performance.

Edge Preparation

Tool edge preparation can improve the tool life, as well as cutting performance and machined surface quality, meeting the requirements of high-speed and high-efficiency cutting. In general, prepared tool edges could be divided into symmetric or asymmetric edges. In the present study, the cemented carbide tools were initially edge prepared through drag finishing. The simulation model of the carbide cemented tool milling steel was established through Deform software. Effects of edge form factor, spindle speed, feed per tooth, axial, and radial cutting depth on the cutting force, the tool wear, the cutting temperature, and the surface quality were investigated through the orthogonal cutting simulation. The simulated cutting force results were compared to the results obtained from the orthogonal milling experiment through the dynamometer Kistler, which verified the simulation model correctness. The obtained results provided a basis for edge preparation effect along with high-speed and high effective cutting machining comprehension.

Abstract Al2O3 nano-scaled coating was prepared on micro-textured YT5 cemented carbide cutting tools by atomic layer deposition ALD. The effect of Al2O3 nano-scaled coating, with and without combined action of texture, on the cutting performance was studied by orthogonal cutting test. The results were compared with micro-textured cutting tool and YT5 cutting tool. They show that the micro-texture and nano-scaled Al2O3 coated on the micro-texture both can reduce the cutting force and friction coefficient of the tool, and the tools with nano-scaled Al2O3 coated on the micro-texture are more efficient. Furthermore, the friction coefficient of the 100 nm Al2O3-coated micro-texture tool is relatively low. When the distance of the micro-pits is 0.15 mm, the friction coefficient is lowest among the four kinds of pit textured nanometer coating tools. The friction coefficient is the lowest when the direction of the groove in strip textured nanometer coating tool is perpendicular to the main cutting edge. The main mechanism of the nanometer Al2O3 on the micro-textured tool to reduction in cutting force and the friction coefficient is discussed. These results show that the developed tools effectively decrease the cutting force and friction coefficient of tool–chip interface.

Abstract In order to study the influence of rotational speed and amplitude on the surface integrity, TC18 titanium alloy samples were milled by the process of conventional milling and longitudinal ultrasonic vibration assisted milling. The experimental data were obtained by dynamometer, thermometer, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer and three-dimensional surface topography instrument for observation and analysis. The results show that the rotational speed has a significant effect on the cutting force, cutting temperature, surface morphology and surface residual stress. Compared with ordinary milling, the surface micro-texture produced by ultrasonic vibration milling is more regular, , and with the increase of rotational speed, the influence of ultrasonic vibration on cutting force and cutting temperature decrease. There are adverse effects on surface roughness after ultrasonic vibration superposition. The influence of ultrasonic vibration on the surface residual compressive stress is also greatly reduced when the rotational speed is greater than 2400 rpm. In addition, a certain depth of plastic deformation layer can be formed under the surface of ultrasonic vibration machining, and the depth of deformation layer increases with the increase of vibration.

Materials often behave in a complicated manner involving deeply coupled effects among stress/stain, temperature, and microstructure during a machining process. This paper is concerned with prediction of the phase change effect on orthogonal cutting of American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) 1045 steel based on a true metallo-thermomechanical coupled analysis. A metallo-thermomechanical coupled material model is developed and a finite element model (FEM) is used to solve the evolution of phase constituents, cutting temperature, chip morphology, and cutting force simultaneously using abaqus. The model validity is assessed using the experimental data for orthogonal cutting of AISI 1045 steel under various conditions, with cutting speeds ranging from 198 to 879 m/min, feeds from 0.1 to 0.3 mm, and tool rake angles from −7 deg to 5 deg. A good agreement is achieved in chip formation, cutting force, and cutting temperature between the model predictions and the experimental data.

Titanium Alloy Ti6al4v

Titanium alloy Ti6Al4V has poor machinability, which leads to high unit cutting force and cutting temperature, rapid tool failure. In this study, the effect of the cutting speed, feed rate and cooling condition on cutting force and cutting temperature is critically analysed by turning experiment. At the same time, the relationship is established among tool wear, cutting force and cutting temperature. This investigation has shown that cutting speed is the decisive factor which increasing cutting force and cutting temperature. In the process of turning, tool wear results in high amounts of heat and mechanical stress, which leads to serious tool wear. The Minimal Quantity Lubrication reduces the frictional condition at the chip-tool, decreases cutting force and cutting temperature, and delays the tool failure.

Abstract In cutting of Ti-6Al-4V alloy, the cutting speed is limited since a high cutting temperature leads to severe tool wear and short tool life, resulting in poor production efficiency. On the other hand, some recent literature has reported that various beneficial effects can be provided by forming micro-textures on the tool surface in the metal cutting process. In this study, in order to achieve high-performance machining of Ti-6Al-4V, we first investigated the mechanism of the tool failure process for a cemented carbide cutting tool in high-speed turning of Ti-6Al-4V. Based on the results, cutting tools with micro textured surfaces were developed under the consideration of a cutting fluid action. A series of experiments showed that the textured rake face successfully decreases the cutting temperature, resulting in a significant suppression of both crater wear and flank wear. In addition, the temperature zone where the texture tool is effective in terms of the tool life in the Ti-6Al-4V cutting was discussed.
