Novel Approach

Chatter phenomenon is a major issue as it greatly affects the topography of machined parts. Due to the inconsistent character of chatter, it is extremely difficult to predict resultant surface roughness in a machining process, such as end milling. Also, recent studies have shown that chatter can be suitably damped using magnetic fields. This paper, thus, focuses on a novel approach of minimizing surface roughness in end milling of Mild (Low Carbon) Steel using uncoated WC-Co inserts under magnetic field from permanent magnets. In this experiment, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) approach using DESIGN EXPERT 6.0 (DOE) software was used to design the experiments. The experiments were performed under two different cutting conditions. The first one was cutting under normal conditions, while the other was cutting under the application of magnetic fields from two permanent magnets positioned on opposite sides of the cutter. Surface roughness was measured using Mitutoyo SURFTEST SV-500 profilometer. The subsequent analysis showed that surface roughness was significantly reduced (by as much as 67.21%) when machining was done under the influence of magnetic field. The experimental results were then used to develop a second order empirical mathematical model equation for surface roughness and validated to 95% confidence level by using ANOVA. Finally, desirability function approach was used to optimize the surface roughness within the limiting values attainable in end milling.

This paper presents the effect of cutting parameters on surface roughness in end milling of Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V under the influence of magnetic field from permanent magnets. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) with a small central composite design was used in developing the relationship between cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut, with surface roughness. In this experiment, three factors and five levels of central composite with 0.16817 alpha value was used as an approach to predict the surface roughness, in end milling of titanium alloy, with reasonable accuracy. The Design-Expert 6.0 software was applied to develop the surface roughness equation for the predictive model. The adequacy of the surface roughness model was validated to 95% by using ANOVA analysis. Finally, desirability function approach was used to determine the optimum possible surface roughness given the capabilities of the end machine.

Chatter Suppression

One of the most challenging issues in machining process is understanding the chatter phenomenon. Chatter mechanics is still not fully understood. It is inconsistent in character, making it difficult to analyze and predict. This research work investigates the influence of permanent magnets on chatter suppression in end milling of Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) using uncoated WC-Co insert. The experiments were designed based on the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) approach using DESIGN EXPERT (DOE) software. The experiments were performed under two different conditions: under normal condition and under the application of magnetic fields from two permanent magnets located in opposite direction. Ti-6Al-4V was used as the work material. The resultant average surface roughness was found to be reduced by a maximum of 50% due to magnet application. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used to analyze the chip morphology. The microphotographs showed the evidence of more stable chip formation under the influence of magnetic fields.

Abstract Magnetic-Field Assisted Finishing (MAF) is a polishing process that utilizes a slurry mixture made of ferrous and abrasive particles in a liquid medium, known as a brush. The brush attached to a magnetic tool directly interacts with the surface of a workpiece and removes any imperfections and defects in the surface giving a smooth and nice surface finish. In this study, two distinct MAF setups were applied to the surface of chromium alloyed low carbon steel sheets to achieve the surface finish. The preliminary studies were conducted on one setup to understand the polishing behavior of the sheets and the other setup was designed to polish larger areas of the sheets to mimic the practical sheet producing environment. The effect of processing conditions such as types and sizes of abrasives, brush composition, and finishing time to attain the final surface roughness of the sheets was studied. The brush with the weight composition of 4:1:1.5 (iron: 3 μm black ceramic: silicone) was found to be the optimal condition for polishing the sheet metal samples. The optimal conditions obtained were applied to the larger scaled experimental setup. The final surface roughness of 38 nm and 220 nm were achieved in these experimental setups, respectively.

Titanium Alloy Ti6al4v

Machining of metals is generally accompanied by a violent relative vibration between work and tool, known as chatter. Chatter arises due to resonance when the vibrations of the instability of chip formation and the natural vibration modes of the machine-system components coincide. This paper focuses on a novel approach of minimizing chatter in end milling of Titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) under magnetic field from permanent magnets. The method consists of two ferrite permanent magnet bars (dimensions: 1′′ x 6′′ x 3′′), mounted 5mm from the cutting tool using a specially designed fixture, to provide a uniform magnetic field of 2500-2700 Gausses (approximately). A titanium alloy Ti6Al4V block was then end milled using uncoated WC-Co inserts.The experiments were designed using the Design Expert software with three independent variables; cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut. Machining tests were conducted for two different conditions – with and without the application of magnets. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used to measure the chip segmentations.The SEM analysis of chip serrations demonstrated that the chip formations were more stable while cutting under the presence of permanent magnets due to lower intensity of chatter.

This paper proposes a new magnetic field assisted machining process using a magnetic machining jig (permanent magnet tool) to finish the internal surface of thick tubing 5~30 mm in thickness. Because the magnetic machining jig consists of permanent magnets, it can generate a higher magnetic force (finishing force) than conventional magnetic abrasives, and makes possible the internal finishing of thick non-ferromagnetic tubing. First, the principle and the feature of this process were examined. It was compared that the difference of the mechanism of using the conventional magnetic abrasives and magnetic machining jig (magnet tool) was clarified. Next, a processing unit and magnetic machining jig were made, and the processing unit was set on a lathe machine. An experiment was performed on a thick SUS304 stainless steel tubing 5 mm in thickness. In this study, it was clarified that this processing method can improve the roundness of the inside tubing while improving the surface roughness. The results showed that the initial surface roughness of 6.5 μm Ra can be improved to 0.06 μm Ra, and the roundness of the inside tubing can be improved from 187 μm to 89 μm.

Magnesium alloys have a tremendous possibility for biomedical applications due to their good biocompatibility, integrity and degradability, but their low ignition temperature and easy corrosive property restrict the machining process for potential biomedical applications. In this research, ultrasonic vibration-assisted ball milling (UVABM) for AZ31B is investigated to improve the cutting performance and get specific surface morphology in dry conditions. Cutting force and cutting temperatures are measured during UVABM. Surface roughness is measured with a white light interferometer after UVABM. The experimental results show cutting force and cutting temperature reduce due to ultrasonic vibration, and surface roughness decreases by 34.92%, compared with that got from traditional milling, which indicates UVABM is suitable to process AZ31B for potential biomedical applications.

The Magnetic Field

Magnetorheological braking devices function due to the organization of domain structures between liquid and solid magnetic materials under the action of an electromagnetic or magnetic field. The disc is most widely used as a rotating braking element that made of a solid magnetic material due to the large area of contact with a magnetorheological fluid. Many factors affect the braking characteristics of the magnetorheological disc brake. Specifically, the value of the magnetic field and how the field is distributed across the work element is significantly affected at the braking torque. There are different ways to generate a magnetic field. In this study, the method of installation of permanent magnets into the construction, allowing to increase the braking torque of the magnetorheological disc brake is proposed. Simulation modelling showing the distribution of the magnetic field across the disk depending on the installation of permanent magnets with different pole orientations were carried out. The model takes into account the possibility of increasing the gap between solid magnetic materials of the structure, inside them which the magnetorheological fluid is placed. Comparative estimation of the distribution of the magnetic fields depending on the chosen method of installation of permanent magnets with different orientations of their poles is carried out. Further research is planned to focus on a comparative assessment of the distribution of magnetic fields depending on the selected material of the braking chamber.

The ability to focus biological particles into a designated position of a microchannel is vital for various biological applications. This paper reports particle focusing under vertical and inclined magnetic fields. We analyzed the effect of the angle of rotation (θ) of the permanent magnets and the critical Reynolds number (Rec) on the particle focusing in depth. We found that a rotation angle of 10° is preferred; a particle loop has formed when Re < Rec and Rec of the inclined magnetic field is larger than that of the vertical magnetic field. We also conducted experiments with polystyrene particles (10.4 μm in diameter) to prove the calculations. Experimental results show that the focusing effectiveness improved with increasing applied magnetic field strength or decreasing inlet flow rate.

The primary purpose of this work was to study the effectiveness of using diamond-like coatings (DLC) to increase the wear resistance of carbide end mills and improve the surface quality of the processed part when milling aluminum alloy and low-carbon steel. The functional role of forming an adhesive sublayer based on (CrAlSi)N immediately before the application of the external DLC film by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) technology in the composition of a multicomponent gas mixture containing tetramethylsilane was established in the article. The article shows the degree of influence of the adhesive sublayer on important physical, mechanical, and structural characteristics of DLCs (hardness, modulus of elasticity, index of plasticity, and others). A quantitative assessment of the effect of single-layer DLCs and double-layer (CrAlSi)N/DLCs on the wear rate of end mills during operation and the surface roughness of machined parts made of aluminum alloy AlCuMg2 and low-carbon steel 41Cr4 was performed.

Finishing Process

In the present work, the friction surfacing process was applied to manufacture aluminum alloy (AA6351) coatings on low carbon steel (AISI 1020) substrates. After friction surfacing the AA6351 deposited coatings were submitted to two finishing process in order to adjust surface roughness: milling and milling followed by sanding. The corrosion behavior of the two finishing process was compared with the as-deposited condition in order to determine the influence of surface roughness on the corrosion resistance of friction surfacing coatings. The corrosion behavior was examined by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization in a 3.5wt.%NaCl solution containing naturally dissolved O2. The results obtained indicated that the elevated surface roughness observed in the as-deposited condition led to relatively lower corrosion resistance in comparison, with lower values for polarization resistance and more anodic corrosion potential.
