Surface integrity has a great effect on the fatigue property of titanium alloy. The surface integrity and fatigue property of a high speed milled Ti-6.5Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V (TA15) titanium alloy were investigated in this research. The main objective of this paper is to study the influence of milling speed on the surface integraty and fatigue property of the machined part. The surface roughness, work hardening, metallurgical structure and residual stress of the machined surface were studied in a cutting speed range of from 50m/min to 300m/min. To verify the relationship between cutting speed and the surface integrity of machined surface, the fatigue property of titanium alloy specimens milled at four different cutting speeds ranging from 50 to 200m/min were compared at two stress levels. This research shows that the cutting speed has little effect on the work hardening, metallurgical structure and residual stress, but the surface roughness decreases with the increasing cutting speed. Therefore, increasing milling speed has a positive effect on the surface integrity and fatigue property of the machined surface.

Surface integrity is particularly important for the aerospace industry components in order to permit longer service life and maximized its reliability. This present work compares the performance of palm oil and synthetic ester on surface roughness, surface defect, microhardness and subsurface deformation when high speed drilling of Ti-6Al-4V under MQL condition. The drilling tests were conducted with AlTiN coated carbide tool. The surface roughness decreased with increasing in cutting speed and thicker subsurface deformation was formed underneath the machined surface. Grooves, cavities, pit holes, microcracks and material smearing were the dominant surface damages thus deteriorated the machined surface. For both lubricants, the machined surface experienced from thermal softening and work hardening effect thus gave a variation in microhardness values. The results indicated the substantial benefit of MQL by palm oil on surface integrity.

High Speed Cutting

In order to improve machined surface quality and reduce the deformation, the residual stress involved in cutting titanium alloy was studied under different cutting speed and cutting depth by finite element simulation method. The results indicate that the increase of cutting speed and cutting depth are helpful to the surface residual compressive stress generating. However the increase of cutting speed also leads to the increase of surface residual tensile stress, the effect degree is relatively small. It is required to select higher cutting speed and smaller cutting depth to improve the surface stress state and reduce the unexpected distortion.

TC4-DT is a new damage-tolerant titanium alloy. In the paper, a series of experiments on tool wear and surface integrity in high speed milling of the alloy were carried out. The tool lives of different tool materials were studied and the wear mechanism of cutting tools was also investigated. Then surface integrity, including surface roughness, microhardness and metallurgical structure was studied and analyzed in high speed milling at different tool wear status. Results showed that K10 is the most suitable cutting tool after considering a combination of factors. And good surface integrity could be obtained in high speed milling of TC4-DT under all cutting situations. In addition, even with acutely worn stages, there has been no so-called serious hardening layer (or white layer) according to the study of microhardness and metallurgical structure beneath the machined surface.

Surface integrity is becoming important to satisfy the increasing requirements service life of machined parts. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of cutting speeds on surface integrity of Inconel 718. Experiments are conducted on a CNC machining center under various cutting speeds. The machined surface integrity is evaluated in terms of surface roughness, microhardness and residual stress. Experimental results show that machined surface integrity of Inconel 718 is sensitivity to the variations of cutting speeds. The surface roughness firstly increases with the cutting speeds increasing at the range from 50 m/min to 200 m/min, then decreases with the further increasing of the cutting speeds. For microhardness, it can be seen that work-hardening for the machined surface is serious. The surface residual stresses are tensile ones at the range of the selected cutting speeds from 50 m/min to 3,000 m/min in this research.

Processing certain kinds of micro-textures onto the surface of tools can improve their wear resistance, reduce the friction between them and machined surfaces, prolong their service life and improve their processing efficiency. When milling titanium alloy with ball-end milling cutters, the cutting force and the cutting heat causes plastic deformation and a concentration of stress on workpiece surfaces, damaging their surface integrity. In this paper, we report on a test involving the milling of titanium alloy, where a micro-texture was placed onto the front of a ball-end cutter and the surface roughness and work hardening of the machined surface were studied. The orthogonal experiment was designed around changes in the diameter of the micro-texture, its depth, the spacing between individual micro-pits, and its distance from the cutting edge. Data from the experiment was then used to assess the influence changes in the micro-texture parameters had upon the roughness and hardening of the surface. The data was processed and analyzed by using regression analysis and a prediction model for surface roughness and work hardening was established. The reliability of the model was then verified. The contents of this paper provide a theoretical basis for improving the cutting performance and the surface machining quality of cemented carbide tools.

Titanium alloy Ti1023 is a typical difficult-to-cut material. Tool wear is easy to occur in machining Ti1023, which has a significant negative effect on surface integrity. Turning is one of the common methods to machine Ti1023 parts and machined surface integrity has a direct influence on the fatigue life of parts. To control surface integrity and improve anti-fatigue behavior of Ti1023 parts, it has an important significance to study the influence of tool wear on the surface integrity and fatigue life of Ti1023 in turning. Therefore, the effect of tool wear on the surface roughness, microhardness, residual stress, and plastic deformation layer of Ti1023 workpieces by turning and low-cycle fatigue tests were studied. Meanwhile, the influence mechanism of surface integrity on anti-fatigue behavior also was analyzed. The experimental results show that the change of surface roughness caused by worn tools has the most influence on anti-fatigue behavior when the tool wear VB is from 0.05 to 0.25 mm. On the other hand, the plastic deformation layer on the machined surface could properly improve the anti-fatigue behavior of specimens that were proved in the experiments. However, the higher surface roughness and significant surface defects on surface machined utilizing the worn tool with VB = 0.30 mm, which leads the anti-fatigue behavior of specimens to decrease sharply. Therefore, to ensure the anti-fatigue behavior of parts, the value of turning tool wear VB must be rigorously controlled under 0.30 mm during finishing machining of titanium alloy Ti1023.

Abstract Application of liquid carbon dioxide to improve cutting performance in micro-end milling of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy was proposed in this study. It was found that the machined roughness decreased with the cutting speed as observed in the conventional cutting, when a 0.5 mm diameter end milling cutter was used in dry cutting. But, the tiny and shattered chips produced by the use of 0.3 mm diameter cutter could adhere on the machined surface and deteriorate surface finish, if the cutting speed was higher than 40 m/min. Cutting temperature was effectively decreased by applying liquid carbon dioxide during micromilling, which in turn reduced the amount of chips adhering on the machined surface and lowered flank wear. The surface roughness Ra at a cutting speed of 70 m/min was improved from 0.09 μm under dry cutting to 0.04 μm under the liquid carbon dioxide assisted cutting condition. And there were no flank wear and very few burrs left on the machined surface for the condition used in the experiment. The height of the burrs was only 25% of that under dry cutting. More, minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) was proposed to be applied together with the liquid carbon dioxide to enhance lubrication effect. It was noted that the machined surface roughness was further decreased by 15% as compared with that when the liquid carbon dioxide was applied alone. The height of burrs was reduced from 32 μm to 16 μm.
