Brazing experiments of polycrystalline CBN abrasive grains and AISI 1045 steel matrix using 95(72Ag-28Cu)-5Ti (wt.%) filler alloy were carried out at the heating temperature of 900 °C for the dwell time of 8 min. The microstructure of the brazing interface among PCBN grain, Ag-Cu-Ti alloy and steel matrix, was characterized with optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction equipment. Grinding performance of the brazed polycrystalline CBN abrasive tools was evaluated experimentally by comparison with monocrystalline CBN counterparts. The results show that the reaction layer between polycrystalline CBN abrasive grain and Ag-Cu-Ti filler layer consists of the compounds of Ti-nitride, Ti-borides and Ti3AlN. The resultants have played an important role in terms of strong chemical joining at the grain-filler interface. The brazed abrasive tools with polycrystalline CBN grains have given higher material removal rate and longer service life than that with monocrystalline CBN ones.

AbstractQuench hardening aims at the microstructural transformation of steels in order to improve hardness and mechanical strength. The aim phase is, in most cases, the martensite. It is necessary to heat the material until it obtains its austenitization and quenching by immersion in a fluid. Currently, it is common to use watery polymeric solutions in this procedure. These fluids, which are the mixture of polymers in water, vary their thermal exchange capacity depending on the concentrations applied. The increase in concentration minimizes the removal of heat from the part, reducing the formation capacity of martensite, and developing a lower hardness and strong steel. In this work, microstructural characteristics and properties of AISI 1045 steel quenched in solutions based on polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in 10, 15, 20, and 25% concentration were evaluated. The microstructural characterization quantified the percentage of the phases in each concentration, demonstrating a reduction of martensite as the concentrations were high. The investigation of the samples by x-ray diffraction confirmed the absence of austenite retained in the material. Furthermore, a microhardness scale between the core and the surface was constructed, in which a reduction gradient of the indices of this property towards the core of the sample was evidenced.

In this study, an experimental and statistic investigation approach based on analysis of variance (ANOVA) and response surface methodology (RSM) techniques was performed to find the significant main effects and two-factor interaction effects and to determine how the controllable factors such as cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut (DOC), tool nose radius, substrate and coating method of cutting tools influence surface quality in turning of AISI 1045 steel. The first optimal or near-optimal conditions for the quality of the generated surface and the second ones, including maximum material removal rate, were established using the proposed regression equations. The group mean roughness of the turned workpieces was lower from using chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-coated carbide inserts than the group means of other types of inserts; however they could not achieve the specific lowest roughness. The physical vapor deposition (PVD)-coated carbide and cermet inserts achieved the best surface quality when the specific combinations within the range interval of controllable factors were used in the experiment, showing that they may be applied to finish turning processes or even to particular high material removal rate conditions associated with the lowest roughness.

Residual stress that are induced during machining of components plays a significant part in the endurance and life of the component. The magnitude and nature of the residual stresses have been of interest to many researchers across the globe. The present work involves methodology to find out the influence of factors on the residual stresses. The machining parameters were varied and the residual stresses were determined using non-destructive method, namely X-ray diffraction. Using statistical methods, the influence of the machining parameters was ascertained. This paper aims at investigating the residual stresses in AISI 1045 steel, induced due to milling. AISI 1045 steel was considered as it is a widely used material and its applications are innumerable. It was observed that speed and feed have significant influence on stresses left behind after the machining is completed. Using statistical techniques a mathematical model was developed which is further used to predict the residual stresses. The error percentage of the predicted values was less than 5%. The results obtained were promising and future work involves the optimization of the machining parameters.

In the present work, a diffusion model was suggested to study the growth kinetics of Fe2B layers grown on the AISI 1045 steel by the pack-boriding treatment. The generated boride layers were analyzed by optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The applied diffusion model is based on the principle of mass conservation at the (Fe2B/ substrate) interface. It was used to estimate the boron diffusion coefficients of Fe2B in the temperature range of 1123-1273 K. A validation of the model was also made by comparing the experimental Fe2B layer thickness obtained at 1253 K for 5 h of treatment with the predicted value. Basing on our experimental results, the boron activation energy was estimated as 180 kJ mol-1 for the AISI 1045 steel.

The objective of the present work is to simulate surface roughness in Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machine by Fuzzy Modeling of AISI 1045 Steel. To develop the fuzzy model; cutting depth, feed rate and speed are taken as input process parameters. The predicted results are compared with reliable set of experimental data for the validation of fuzzy model. Based upon reliable set of experimental data by Response Surface Methodology twenty fuzzy controlled rules using triangular membership function are constructed. By intelligent model based design and control of CNC process parameters, we can enhance the product quality, decrease the product cost and maintain the competitive position of steel.
