An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effects of cutting parameters on cutting force and temperature in cutting of hardened W18Cr4V with PCBN cutter. Three components of cutting force were recorded by a strain-gauge dynamometer and the cutting temperature was measured by a nature thermocouple of tool-workpiece. The cutting parameters were arranged by orthogonal method. It is shown that the cutting temperature increased with each of the three cutting parameters and the main effecting factor is feeding speed. The three components of cutting force increased greatly with an increase in feeding speed and cutting depth. But the forces decreased a little as cutting speed increased. The main and axial cutting forces depend mainly on cutting depth whereas the radius force is mainly influenced by feeding speed.

Cryogenic Minimum Quantity Lubrication

Cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication (CMQL) is a kind of green cooling/lubrication technique, which consists of the application of a small amount of lubricant (6-100 ml/h), delivered in a refrigerated compressed gas stream to the cutting zone. This paper experimentally investigates the effect of CMQL on cutting temperature and tool wear in high-speed end milling of titanium alloys. Comparative experiments were conducted under different cooling/lubrication conditions, i.e. dry milling, refrigerated air cutting, and CMQL. The refrigerated gas equipment was manufactured based on composite refrigeration method to provide the refrigerated air. The experimental results show that application of CMQL resulted in drastic reduction in cutting temperature and tool wear especially when machining titanium alloys at a high cutting speed.

Cutting Speeds

This paper investigates numerical and experimental study of end milling of titanium alloy Ti–6% Al–4% V using carbide insert based cutting tool. The experiments were carried out under dry cutting conditions. The cutting speeds selected for the experiments are 20,30,40,50 mmin–1. The feed rates used in the experiment were 0.02, 0.04, 0.06 and 0.08 mmrev–1, while depth of cut is kept constant at 1.0 mm. For conducting the experiments single insert based cutting tool is based. For a range of cutting speeds and feeds measurements of cutting force, surface roughness and cutting temperature have been recorded. From the experimental study it can be seen that cutting speed has the significant effect on temperature when compared to feed/tooth. Further it is also found that cutting speed of 30 m min−1 and feed rate of 0.02 mm rev−1 could be used for machining Ti alloy. Moreover the experimental and numerical cutting force values are compared.

In this paper, based on finite element software DEFORM, the model of a large cutting depth and quasi-high speeds milling of titanium alloys is built to study the cutting temperature and cutting force variation along with the change of cutting parameters. The simulation results show that: the location of the maximum cutting temperature appears in the cutting edges of the tool nose circular profile. Meanwhile, due to workpiece material rebound in the cutting process, the interface between workpiece and tool flank face occurs serious extrusion, which results in relatively high cutting temperature on the workpiece machined surface. In addition, cutting speed and feed rate per tooth play a key role in influencing the cutting temperature. However, the influence of cutting depth on the cutting temperature is less clear. With the increase in the feed rate and depth of cut, cutting force increased significantly. In particular, within the scope of the cutting speeds under the given conditions, the cutting force has a tendency to decrease with the cutting speed increasing over 120m/min.

In the traditional titanium alloy processing, Titanium alloys, however, are generally machined at lower cutting efficiency due to their low cutting speed and low cutting tool durability. This paper introduces a static cooling auxiliary method of titanium alloy TC11 cutting to solve the above-mentioned problems. The static cooling cutting can solve pollution by using coolant and decrease the consumption of resources and solve disadvantages in traditional titanium alloy processing problems.

Titanium alloys are attractive materials used in different engineering applications, due to its excellent combination of properties such as high strength to weight ratio, good corrosion resistance and high temperature applicability. They are also being used increasingly in chemical process, automotive, biomedical and nuclear plant. When machining of Titanium alloys with traditional tools the tool wear rate high. Because of high chemical reactivity and low modulus of elasticity resulting high cutting temperature and strong adhesion between the tool and work piece materials. The poly crystalline diamond (PCD) cutting tool is used for the turning experiment. The turning parameters for the experimental work are cutting speed, feed, nose radius, and depth of cut. From the results, analysis of the influences of the individual parameters on the surface roughness have been carried out. Fuzzy modeling technique is effectively used to predict the surface roughness in the machining of titanium alloy.

The titanium alloys (Ti-6Al-4V) have been widely used in aerospace, and medical applications and the demand is ever-growing due to its outstanding properties. In this paper, the finite element modeling on machinability of Ti-6Al-4V using cubic boron nitride and polycrystalline diamond tool in dry turning environment was investigated. This research was carried out to generate mathematical models at 95% confidence level for cutting force and temperature distribution regarding cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut. The Box-Behnken design of experiment was used as Response Surface Model to generate combinations of cutting variables for modeling. Then, finite element simulation was performed using AdvantEdge®. The influence of each cutting parameters on the cutting responses was investigated using Analysis of Variance. The analysis shows that depth of cut is the most influential parameter on resultant cutting force whereas feed rate is the most influential parameter on cutting temperature. Also, the effect of the cutting-edge radius was investigated for both tools. This research would help to maximize the tool life and to improve surface finish.

Tool wear phenomena during the machining of titanium alloys are very complex. Severe adhesive interaction at the tool chip interface, especially at low cutting speeds, leads to intensive Built Up Edge (BUE) formation. Additionally, a high cutting temperature causes rapid wear in the carbide inserts due to the low thermal conductivity of titanium alloys. The current research studies the effect of AlTiN and CrN PVD coatings deposited on cutting tools during the rough turning of a Ti6Al4V alloy with severe BUE formation. Tool wear characteristics were evaluated in detail using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and volumetric wear measurements. Chip morphology analysis was conducted to assess the in situ tribological performance of the coatings. A high temperature–heavy load tribometer that mimics machining conditions was used to analyze the frictional behavior of the coatings. The micromechanical properties of the coatings were also investigated to gain a better understanding of the coating performance. It was demonstrated that the CrN coating possess unique micromechanical properties and tribological adaptive characteristics that minimize BUE formation and significantly improve tool performance during the machining of the Ti6Al4V alloy.

High-speed milling tests were performed on vol. (5%-8%) TiCp/TC4 composite in the speed range of 50-250 m/min using PCD tools to nvestigate the cutting temperature and the cutting forces. The results showed that radial depth of cut and cutting speed were the two significant influences that affected the cutting forces based on the Taguchi prediction. Increasing radial depth of cut and feed rate will increase the cutting force while increasing cutting speed will decrease the cutting force. Cutting force increased less than 5% when the reinforcement volume fraction in the composites increased from 0% to 8%. Radial depth of cut was the only significant influence factor on the cutting temperature. Cutting temperature increased with the increasing radial depth of cut, feed rate or cutting speed. The cutting temperature for the titanium composites was 40-90 °C higher than that for the TC4 matrix. However, the cutting temperature decreased by 4% when the reinforcement's volume fraction increased from 5% to 8%.
