Effect of Cutting Speed on Ultrasonically Added Turning in Soft Magnetic Stainless Steel
Ultrasonic cutting is a technique that can improve machinability such as fine surface, reduce tool worn out and etc. To improve processing speed of ultrasonic cutting is difficult due to the effects of tool oscillation are invalidated when cutting speed exceeds maximum tool oscillating velocity. In this study, high speed principal direction ultrasonic turning experiments for soft magnetic stainless steel were carried out to investigate effects of cutting speed and products quality. Surface roughness, chip worn out and built up edge were investigated in this study. In case of ultrasonic turning, tool worn out and built up edge generation were reduced compare with ordinary turning. High speed ultrasonic cutting can improve cutting performances in phase of turned surface quality, cutting force and processing speed.
