Cutting Characteristics of Lanthanum Base Metallic Glass in Single Point Diamond Turning
Keyword(s):
To investigate the maintainability of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs), two Lanthanum base metallic glass were first characterized by using X-ray diffraction and then machined by single point diamond turning (SPDT). With increasing depths of cut (DOC) from 1 um to 5 um, surface finish was improved. However, surface finish is not improved significantly when the DOC is further increased.
