Titanium alloy is becoming increasingly employed in the aerospace industries due to its good mechanical and chemical properties. As a typical difficult-to-machine material, there are problems of fast tool wear and poor stability of the processing quality in the machining process. Therefore, experiments of high feed milling of TB2 titanium alloy in liquid nitrogen cooling were carried out to measure the cutting force and the cutting temperature. The experimental results showed that under some parameters, liquid nitrogen could decrease the cutting force and cutting temperature in comparison with dry cutting. What’s more, the tool life as well as the surface quality was improved.

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.

Abstract given its favourable comprehensive properties, titanium alloy has been extensively developed and used in numerous fields. However, its low thermal conductivity and strong chemical activity have led to its reputation as a difficult-to-machine material. Thus, graphene nanoparticles and sulfur-based extreme pressure (EP) additive were added to rapeseed oil to increase the lubrication and cooling properties of the machining region. In this study, three lubricants were used to machine titanium alloy: rapeseed oil+graphene+sulfur-based EP additive, rapeseed oil+sulfur-based EP additive, and rapeseed oil; and the subsequent wear of cutting tools, cutting temperature, surface roughness, and cutting force were compared. The most favourable results were found for the combination of rapeseed oil+graphene+sulfur-based EP additive, effectively decreasing the temperature of the cutting area and wear of cutting tools. In comparison with rapeseed oil, the flank wear value decreased by 56.4%. Similarly, the surface roughness and cutting force with the rapeseed oil+graphene+sulfur-based EP additive were lowest, showing a decrease of 36.1% and 27.0% respectively when compared with rapeseed oil.

Titanium alloy Ti-5Al-5V-3Cr-0.5Fe (Ti-5553) is a new generation of near-beta titanium alloy that is commonly used in the aerospace industry. Machining is one of the manufacturing methods to produce parts that are made of this near-beta alloy. This study presents the machining performance of new generation near-beta alloys, namely, Ti-5553, by focusing on a high-speed cutting process under cryogenic cooling conditions and dry machining. The machining experiments were conducted under a wide range of cutting speeds, including high speeds that used liquid nitrogen (LN2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) as cryogenic coolants. The experimental data on the cutting temperature, tool wear, force components, chip breakability, dimensional accuracy, and surface integrity characteristics are presented and were analyzed to evaluate the machining process of this alloy and resulting surface characteristics. This study shows that cryogenic machining improved the machining performance of the Ti-5553 alloy by substantially reducing the tool wear, cutting temperature, and dimensional deviation of the machined parts. The cryogenic machining also produced shorter chips as compared to dry machining.

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.

Abstract In order to study the influence of rotational speed and amplitude on the surface integrity, TC18 titanium alloy samples were milled by the process of conventional milling and longitudinal ultrasonic vibration assisted milling. The experimental data were obtained by dynamometer, thermometer, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer and three-dimensional surface topography instrument for observation and analysis. The results show that the rotational speed has a significant effect on the cutting force, cutting temperature, surface morphology and surface residual stress. Compared with ordinary milling, the surface micro-texture produced by ultrasonic vibration milling is more regular, , and with the increase of rotational speed, the influence of ultrasonic vibration on cutting force and cutting temperature decrease. There are adverse effects on surface roughness after ultrasonic vibration superposition. The influence of ultrasonic vibration on the surface residual compressive stress is also greatly reduced when the rotational speed is greater than 2400 rpm. In addition, a certain depth of plastic deformation layer can be formed under the surface of ultrasonic vibration machining, and the depth of deformation layer increases with the increase of vibration.

Materials often behave in a complicated manner involving deeply coupled effects among stress/stain, temperature, and microstructure during a machining process. This paper is concerned with prediction of the phase change effect on orthogonal cutting of American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) 1045 steel based on a true metallo-thermomechanical coupled analysis. A metallo-thermomechanical coupled material model is developed and a finite element model (FEM) is used to solve the evolution of phase constituents, cutting temperature, chip morphology, and cutting force simultaneously using abaqus. The model validity is assessed using the experimental data for orthogonal cutting of AISI 1045 steel under various conditions, with cutting speeds ranging from 198 to 879 m/min, feeds from 0.1 to 0.3 mm, and tool rake angles from −7 deg to 5 deg. A good agreement is achieved in chip formation, cutting force, and cutting temperature between the model predictions and the experimental data.

Titanium Alloy Ti6al4v

Titanium alloy Ti6Al4V has poor machinability, which leads to high unit cutting force and cutting temperature, rapid tool failure. In this study, the effect of the cutting speed, feed rate and cooling condition on cutting force and cutting temperature is critically analysed by turning experiment. At the same time, the relationship is established among tool wear, cutting force and cutting temperature. This investigation has shown that cutting speed is the decisive factor which increasing cutting force and cutting temperature. In the process of turning, tool wear results in high amounts of heat and mechanical stress, which leads to serious tool wear. The Minimal Quantity Lubrication reduces the frictional condition at the chip-tool, decreases cutting force and cutting temperature, and delays the tool failure.

Input Variables

Dual nozzle vortex tube cooling system (VTCS) is developed to improve the machinability of Ti-6Al-4V where cold-compressed CO2 gas is used as a coolant. The cooling effect is produced by the process of energy separation in the vortex tube and the coolant is supplied into the machining zone to remove the generated heat in machining. In this study, the responses such as cutting force (Fz), cutting temperature (Tm), and surface roughness (Ra) are analyzed by considering coolant inlet pressure, cold fraction, and nozzle diameter as input variables. Further optimization is performed for the input variables using the genetic algorithm technique, and the results at optimum conditions are compared with those of dry cutting. From the results, lower cutting force is observed at lower coolant pressure and cold fraction and higher nozzle diameter. The cutting temperature is minimized by increasing coolant pressure and cold fraction and by decreasing nozzle diameter. A better surface finish is observed at high coolant pressure and cold fraction and lower nozzle diameters. It is observed from the response surface method (RSM) that the coolant pressure is most significantly affecting all the responses. At optimum conditions, the cutting temperature and surface roughness are 35.6% and 66.14%, respectively, lower than dry cutting due to the effective cooling and lubricating action of the CO2 gas, whereas cutting force observed under the VTCS is 18.6% higher than that of dry cutting because of the impulse force of the coolant VTCS and thermal softening of the workpiece in dry cutting.
