Tool wear is a major cause of accelerated tool failure during the milling of aluminum alloy. The periodically cutting force directly affect the cutting heat and tool wear due to the intermittent cutting characteristics of the milling process. The focus of this paper is to analyze the influence of the variation of cutting force on tool wear behavior. The change law of cutting force by cutting parameters was analyzed firstly. Secondly, the variation of the wear land width (VB) of tool flank face by the milling length was analyzed. Thirdly, the wear morphology and the energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) results of tool rake face and flank face in different cutting parameters were observed by tungsten filament scanning electron microscope. Finally, considering the cutting force effect, the tool wear mechanism during high-speed milling of Aluminum-Alloy Die Castings 12 (ADC12, 12 means aluminum number 12) was analyzed. The cutting force in tangential direction is predominant during high-speed milling aluminum alloy, which decreases gradually with the increase of cutting speed but increases gradually with the feed rising. The adhesion-oxidation wear was main wear mechanism of tool rake face during high-speed milling. While adhesive wear was the main wear mechanism of the tool flank face during high-speed milling. It is found that the formation of adhesive wear is the process from particle adhesion to melting until the formation of adhesive layer, which related to the change of cutting force.

Abstract The 3D Finite element method (FEM) is an efficient tool to predict the variables in the cutting process, which is otherwise challenging to obtain with the experimental methods alone. The present study combines both experimental findings and finite element simulation outcomes to investigate the effect of tool material on output process variables, such as vibrations, cutting temperature distribution and tool wear mechanism. Machining of popular aerospace materials like Ti-6Al-4V and Al7075 turned with coated and uncoated tools are part of the investigation. The authors choose the orthogonal test, measured vibrations and cutting temperatures and used FE simulations to carry out the subsequent validations. This study includes the influence of the predicted heat flux and temperature distribution on the tool wear mechanism. The main aim of this study is to investigate the performance quality of uncoated and coated carbide tools along with its thermal aspects. Comparison of experiment and simulation outcomes shows good agreement with a maximum error of 9.02%. It has been noted that the increase of cutting temperature is proportional to its cutting speed. As the cutting speed increases, it is observed that vibration parameter and flank wear value also increases. Overall, coated carbide turning insert tool is the best method for metal turning with higher rotational speeds of the spindle.

The objectives of hard turning of high speed steel (HSS-M2 Grade) are to investigate the effect of cutting parameters on cutting force, tool wear and surface integrity. This article presents the experimental results of heat treated high speed steel machined in a CNC lathe using cubic boron nitride (CBN) tools. Turing experiments were carried out using central composite design (CCD) method. From the experiments the influence of cutting parameters and their interactions on cutting forces, temperature and surface roughness (Ra) were analyzed. Following this, multi response optimization was done to find the best combination of parameters for minimum force, minimum temperature and minimum surface roughness. The experimental results showed that the most contributing factors were feed followed by depth of cut and spindle speed. A white layer formed during hard turning was also analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the results showed that it was greatly influenced by the speed and depth of cut. Tool wear was experiments were conducted at the optimum cutting conditions and it was noted that the tool satisfactorily performed up to 10 minutes at dry condition.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the cutting performance of high-speed regime end milling of AISI 4340 by investigating the tool life and wear mechanism of steel using the minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) technique to deliver the cutting fluid. Design/methodology/approach The experiments were designed using Taguchi L9 orthogonal array with the parameters chosen: cutting speed (between 300 and 400 m/min), feed rate (between 0.15 and 0.3 mm/tooth), axial depth of cut (between 0.5 and 0.7 mm) and radial depth of cut (between 0.3 and 0.7 mm). Toolmaker microscope, optical microscope and Hitachi SU3500 Variable Pressure Scanning Electron Microscope used to measure tool wear progression and wear mechanism. Findings Cutting speed 65.36%, radial depth of cut 24.06% and feed rate 6.28% are the cutting parameters that contribute the most to the rate of tool life. The study of the tool wear mechanism revealed that the oxide layer was observed during lower and high cutting speeds. The former provides a cushion of the protective layer while later reduce the surface hardness of the coated tool Originality/value A high-speed regime is usually carried out in dry conditions which can shorten the tool life and accelerate the tool wear. Thus, this research is important as it investigates how the use of MQL and cutting parameters can prolong the usage of tool life and at the same time to achieve a sustainable manufacturing process.

WC–5TiC–10Co cemented carbides inserts were prepared and used for the cutting tool for HT250 gray cast iron. The objective was to investigate the wear mechanism when machining HT250 gray cast iron with WC–5TiC–10Co cemented carbides inserts. WC–10Co cemented carbides with the same sintering technology and grain size were prepared for comparison. wear mechanism was examined at the same cutting parameters. The cutting tests were performed at a speed of 120 m/min with feed rate of 0.2 mm/rev and a constant depth of cut of 0.2 mm under dry conditions. Tool wear mechanism is analyzed by SEM and EDS. Adhesive and built-up-edge were found to be the predominant tool wear for WC–5TiC–10Co cemented carbides inserts. However, Attrition was the main wear mechanisms observed in WC–10Co cutting tools. The results obtained indicated that WC–5TiC–10Co cutting tools performed better than WC–10Co cutting tools, in terms of tool wear with current parameters.

Tool Wear Mechanism

Three distinctive regions of tool wear, known as initial wear, steady-state wear, and accelerated wear, are well understood. However, the effects of cutting parameters on the initial tool wear mechanism, morphology, and size have received less attention as compared to the other two regions. Knowing that adequate control of initial tool wear may lead to extended tool life, in particular in hard-to-cut metals such as superalloys, this topic has become a source of attention. Amongst superalloys, Inconel 718 is considered as one of the most difficult to cut materials, which has a wide range of industrial applications. This study intends to evaluate the effects of cutting parameters on initial tool wear, as well as tool wear progression, when turning Inconel 718. Therefore, microstructural evaluation of the initial tool wear mode under various cutting conditions, as well as tool wear measurements, were conducted. It was observed that certain elements of the workpieces were migrated to the insert flank face. This is evidence of adhesion at the initial moments of the cutting process. In contrast to many other easy-to-cut materials, the steady-state wear period when turning Inconel 718 is significantly short under a higher level of cutting speed and feed rate.

Wear Rates

The machinability of a material can be defined in terms of the wear rate of the cutting tool used to machine the material. The lower the tool wear rate or the greater the tool life the better the machinability. The wear processes of cutting tools are complicated, but recent work has shown that cutting tool wear rates during machining can be directly related to tool material wear rates when rubbing in a modified crossed cylinder wear experiment (Mills & Akhtar 1975). The wear of cutting tools can be simulated by simple experiments. Here I present results on the effect of total residual levels in leaded low carbon free machining steels on the tool life of M2 high speed steel. The results will be discussed in terms of a simple wear model.

A large statistically designed orthogonal tube turning experiment measuring the forces, tool wear and surface finish involved in machining of AISI 1020 steel under four different cutting environments. The environments studied were nitrogen and cold compressed air against dry machining. Each data run consisted of one minute cutting time at two different feeds of 0.002″/rev. and 0.004″/rev. at a constant depth of cut of 0.125″ width of cut using High speed steel tool material inserts. Post-mortem analysis was carried out under a Keyance microscope to evaluate the wear on the rake face. The cutting force and the thrust force are collected during the machining process with a dynamometer and the data is further processed using Labview software. The surface finish on the work piece after the cutting process is also evaluated based on the average roughness measurement taken from a contact type profilometer. The advantages of using such gaseous cutting fluids are discussed.

In production of safety critical components in aero engine manufacture, to date broaching is the most efficient process machining fir-tree slots in turbine discs. Machining highly thermal resistant Nickel-based alloys, manufacturers commonly use High Speed Steel (HSS) tools and work at low cutting speeds in order to stay at rather low tool wear rates and avoid part quality defects. The key variable affecting tool wear as well as part quality, as in most machining processes, is the temperature. Excessive temperatures in the cutting zone lead to enhanced tool wear on the one hand, and surface defects such as white layer formation and residual tensile stresses on the other hand. In this article, the temperature development is investigated for typical tool geometries and cutting parameters in broaching. Furthermore, the possibility of a temperature control using intermediate variables such as process forces is discussed, and potentials employing a control are explained.
