Modern machining processes continuously face cost pressures and high quality expectations. To remain competitive a company must continually identify cost reduction opportunities in production, exploit economic opportunities, and continuously improve production processes. A key technology that represents cost saving opportunities related to cooling lubrication, and simultaneously improves the overall performance of cutting operations, is dry machining. The elimination of coolants or significant reduction in cooling lubricants affects all components of a production system. A detailed analysis and adaptation of cutting parameters, cutting tools, machine tools and the production environment is mandatory to ensure an efficient process and successfully enable dry machining. Case study is shown for examination of cylindricity error and surface roughness of helical milling machined surfaces by environmentally conscious way.

In machining processes, great amount of the cutting energy transforms to heat energy. Tool life decreases and the quality of the machined surface changes by the effects of heat during machining. Many researches are being done on the reduction of the negative effects of the heat on the tool. In this respect, cutting fluids are used, but usages of them are limited because of their some harmfully effects to the environment. In order to reduce the tool wear and to use the tool longer, during cutting continuously variation of the contact region of the tool and the chip can been realized by using self-propelled rotary tools. The tool life is longer in rotary tools when compared with stationary cutting tools. In machining with these tools lower heat effect at the cutting edge is observed. In this study, the effects of cutting parameters on surface roughness of machined part has been investigated during the turning of mild steel using self-propelled rotary tools. In experiments, cutting tools which inclination angles were 20°, 30° and 45° and rake angles were 0° and-5° were used. Cutting speeds were taken as 60 m/min and 120m/min. RCMX insert with 32mm diameter was used. Feed were chosen as 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 mm/rev and cutting depth was set at 0.25 mm.

This work presents an experimental investigation on micro-milling of fully sintered Zirconia (ZrO2) by diamond coated tools. The experiments were conducted on a Kern MMP 2522 micro-milling centre and WC micro end mills, diamond coated by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) and of stiff geometry were employed as cutting tools. The effects of cutting parameters and milling time on tool wear were investigated. The results revealed that the tool wear characters included diamond coating delamination and wear of substrate WC. Both cutting forces and machined surface quality were affected by tool wear with the progress of milling.

Abstract Machined surface is one of the most used indicators of workpiece quality. But machined surface is influenced by several factors such as cutting parameters, cutting material, shape of cutting tool or cutting insert, micro-structure of machined material and other known as technological parameters. By improving of these parameters, we can improve machined surface. In the machining, there is important to identify the characteristics of main product of these processes – workpiece, but also the byproduct - the chip. Size and shape of chip has impact on lifetime of cutting tools and its inappropriate form can influence the machine functionality and lifetime, too. This article deals with elimination of long chip created when machining of shaft in automotive industry and with impact of shape of chip-breaker on shape of chip in various cutting conditions based on production requirements.

From the invention of turning machine or lathe, some engineers are trying to increase the turning productivity. The increase of productivity is following after the breakout in instrumental area, such as the hard alloy instrument and resistance to wear cutting surfaces. The potential of cutting speed has a certain limit. New steel marks and cutting surfaces types allow significantly increase cutting and turning speeds. For the most operation types the productivity increase begins from the feeding increase. But the increase of feeding goes together with machined surface result decreasement. Metal cutting with high feeding is one of the most actual problems in the increasing of manufacturing volume but there are some problems one of them is the cutting forces increasement and larger metal removal rate, which decrease the cutting tool life significantly. Increasing of manufacturing volume, going together with the cutting instrument technology and material evolution, such as the invention of the carbide cutting materials and wear resistant coatings such as TiC and Ti(C,N). Each of these coating have its own properties and functions in the metal cutting process. Together with this evolution the cutting tool geometry and machining parameters dependencies are researched. Traditionally for the decreasing the machining time of one part, the cutting parameters were increased, decreasing by this way the machining operation quantity. In our days the wear resistance of the cutting tools increasing and it is mostly used one or two machining operations (medium and fine finishing). The purpose of the topic is to represent the experimental results of the stainless steel turning process, using increased cutting speeds and feeding values, to develop advanced processing technology, using new modern coated cutting tools by CVD and PVD methods. After investigation of the machined surface roughness results, develop the mathematical model of the cutting process using higher values of the cutting parameters.

In order to better provide a theoretical basis for the machining of luxury vinyl tiles, a helical milling experiment was conducted by using diamond cutting tools, and special attention was given to the trends of cutting force and surface roughness in respect to tool geometry and cutting parameters. The results showed that the resultant force was negatively correlated to the helix angle and cutting speed, but positively correlated with the cutting depth. Then, that the surface roughness increased with a decrease of the helix angle and an increase of cutting depth, while as cutting speed raised, the surface roughness first declined and then increased. Thirdly, the cutting depth was shown to have the greatest influence on both cutting force and surface roughness, followed by helix angle and cutting speed. Fourth, the contribution of cutting depth only was significant to cutting force, while both the helix angle and cutting speed had insignificant influence on the cutting force and surface roughness. Finally, the optimal cutting conditions were proposed for industrial production, in which the helix angle, cutting speed and cutting depth were 70°, 2200 m/min and 0.5 mm, respectively.

The WCCo/PCD (Diamond Dispersed Cemented Carbide—DDCC) manufactured with the use of PPS (pulse plasma sintering) are modern materials intended for cutting tools with the benefits of tungsten carbides and polycrystalline diamonds. Nevertheless, the cutting performance of DDCC materials are currently not recognized. Thus this study proposes the evaluation of technological effects of a precise groove turning process of hard-to-cut AlSi13MgCuNi alloy with DDCC tools. The conducted studies involved the measurements of machined surface topographies after grooving with different cutting parameters. In addition, the tool life and wear tests of DDCC inserts were conducted during grooving process and the obtained results were compiled with values reached during machining with cemented carbide tools. It was also proved that grooving of AlSi13MgCuNi alloy with DDCC inserts enables 5 times longer tool life and almost 3-fold increase of cutting path compared to values obtained during grooving with H3 and H10 cemented carbide inserts. Ultimately, the feed value of f = 0.15 mm/rev and cutting speed in a range of 800 m/min ≤ vc ≤ 1000 m/min during grooving with DDCC inserts can be defined as an optimal machining parameters, enabling the maximization of tool life and improvement in surface quality.

The paper is concerned with the effect of cutting parameters on surface microstructure of titanium alloy TC17 in high speed milling with the carbide cutting tools by single factor experiment. It will be provided experimental evidence for optimization cutting parameters and surface quality control of titanium alloy parts in high-speed cutting process. It is observing microstructure with Germany's Leica DMI 5000M inverted metallurgical microscope. The results show that in the range of experimental parameters, the effect of milling speed, feed per tooth and milling depth on surface microstructure in high-speed milling of titanium alloy TC17 is little. There is no obvious phase change, as indicating that most of the heat generated by chip away, little heat incoming workpiece, under the conditions of high speed milling titanium alloy TC17.

In the modern manufacturing of sophisticated parts with 3D sculptured surfaces, die/mold making operations are the most widely used machining processes to remove unwanted material. To manufacture a die or a mold, many different cutting tools are involved, from hole-drills to the smallest ball nose end mills. Since the specification of each tool is very different from each other, each die/mold is specific with their complicated shapes and many machining rules exist to consider, a great deal of expertise is needed in selecting cutting tools for the die/mold machining operations. An intelligent system developed by using case-based reasoning (CBR) technology for this purpose is described in the present work. The geometry of the workpiece, workpiece condition, and operation type are considered as input values and various recommendations about the tool material, tool type, tool specifications, and cutting parameters are provided.

The article deals with the surface roughness examination of three selected hard materials, that is, K100, 100CrMnMo7, and 16MnCr5, all with a defined hardness of HRC 60. The individual materials were machined using sintered carbide and cermet cutting materials with TiCN and TiN + TiCN + Al2O3 coatings. The research resided in the realization of three experiments. These experiments were carried out by three alternatives differing in the setting of basic cutting parameters. The experimental procedure was realized by the simulation method and direct contact measurement method of surface roughness. From the overall technical evaluation described in the practical part of the article, for the primarily observed parameter, the surface roughness, the least suitable values were obtained in the evaluation of the material from experiment No. 1-K100 with hardness HRC60. The experiments realized and the results achieved show that the machining of tool steels and other superhard materials requires special cutting tools, machines, and the use of progressive technologies, to ensure the production of a dimensionally and qualitatively shaped functional component.
