Research on the Wear Process of High Speed Cutting Ni-Based Superalloy
As the main method of high efficiency cutting Ni-based superalloy, high-speed cutting can not but intensify the cutting-tool wear for the high cutting force and cutting temperature. So, it is very necessary to study the process of cutting-tool wear and wear mechanism, especially, the effect of cutting-tool wear on the cutting force, cutting temperature and surface roughness of machined workpiece. In this paper, investigation of tool wear in high-speed cutting is proposed, the PCDTiAlN carbide insert is used in the experiment, the cutting-tool wear and the corresponding cutting force, cutting temperature and surface roughness of machined workpiece is detected. It indicates that the cutting force, cutting temperature and surface roughness of machined workpiece is changed corresponding the cutting-tool wear,the wear process of coated tool include the coated material wears and base material wears,the wear mechanism is complex. Key word: superalloy, high-speed cutting, tool wear, wear form ; .
