Investigation of Abrasive Wear in the Dry Belt Grinding of Titanium Alloy

This paper was dedicated to elucidate an investigation of abrasive wear and surface topography of Titanium alloy TA15 on dry grinding with zirconia alumina belt. In the investigation, experiments were performed on milling machine XS5040 equipped with assembled belt grinding device. The wear abrasive, surface morphology of machined belt in different phase were analyzed using 3D viewer microscope. The results show that the wear of belt abrasive is mainly steady attritions wear since zirconia alumina belt was stable on dry grinding. At higher grinding force, the abrasive was found to undergo dislodging prior to being gradually worn. So zirconia alumina belt has excellent performance in the dry grinding titanium alloy.

Experimental results of Ti-6-2-4-2S, Ti-6-4 and Ti-5-5-5-1-1 are detailed in this paper with conventional surface grinding using SiC abrasive under dry conditions. Measurements of grinding forces, surface topography and metallurgical structure of ground surface were taken to investigate the grinding mechanism of these materials. The results showed grinding force ratios to these materials were between 1.35 to 2.25 at all material remove rates, but the specific energy to Ti-5-5-5-1-1 and Ti-6-2-4-2S were little higher than Ti-6-4. Evaluation of ground surface topography indicated they were visually free of crack and burn. At the same grinding parameters, Ti-5-5-5-1-1 had the maximum depth of heat-affected zone because of its poor high temperature properties.

Blades are the key parts of turbines. The materials used for making blades have many excellent performances such as high intensity, corrosion resistant and temperature resistant. They are of hard to machine materials. However, there is little information available in the literature related to abrasive belt grinding blades materials. And its mechanisms have not yet been fully explained. This paper aims to make a contribution to the understanding of the wear mechanisms of the abrasive belt and its influence factors. A series of tests were conducted on 1Cr13 stainless steel. The surface roughness and the surface topography of abrasive wear were observed. The influences of grinding force and grinding time on surface roughness were discussed. The wear mechanisms are revealed based on the model of abrasive grain’s wear. It revealed that existence of an optimum surface roughness reachable dependent of the grinding force and grinding time. It has also been shown that the type of abrasive and grinding depth have great influence on abrasive wear.

Key Factor

In order to study the spallation phenomenon of titanium alloy under the shock of nanosecond laser, the Neodymium-Yttrium-Aluminum Garnet laser was used to carry out laser shock experiments on the surface of titanium alloy. By observing and measuring the surface morphology of the target material, the forming factors and the changes of the surface morphology under different parameter settings, the forming criteria of the titanium alloy were obtained. The results show that under the single variable method, the change of laser energy can affect the target shape variable, and there is a positive correlation between them. When the thickness was greater than or equal to 0.08 mm, no obvious cracks were found in the targets. Moreover, the number of impact times was the key factor for the target deformation; with the growth of impact times, the target deformation gradually became larger until the crack appeared. The larger the diameter of the spot, the more likely the target was to undergo plastic deformation. The surface of titanium alloy with a thickness of 0.08 mm appeared to rebound under specific laser shock condition. The changes in the back of the target material were observed in real time through a high-speed camera, and the plasma induced by the laser was observed in the process. This study is based on the results of previous studies to obtain the titanium alloy forming criteria, which provides a basis for the setting of laser parameters and the thickness of the target when the nanosecond laser impacts the Ti-6AL-4V target.

Force Ratio

The impacts of different linear speed of grinding wheel, grinding depth and workpiece feed speed with or without grinding fluid on grinding force were studied by plane grinding machining of zirconia ceramics. The impacts of different machining environment and grinding parameter on normal and tangential grinding forceswere studied by testing the grinding force during grinding with a force measuring device. The studies showed that the normal and tangential grinding forces decrease with the increase of the linear speed of grinding wheel and increase with the improvement of grinding depth and workpiece feed speed. The grinding depth has the greatest impacts on the normal and tangential grinding forces in dry grinding environment; while in wet grinding environment, the grinding depth exerts the greatest impacts on the normal grinding force and the linear speed of grinding wheel imposes the greatest impacts on the tangential grinding force. In addition, it was found that the normal grinding force in dry grinding is minor than that in wet grinding, that the tangential grinding force in dry grinding is greater than that in wet grinding, and that the grinding force ratio in dry grinding is lower than that in wet grinding.
