Through-tool coolant was applied to the drilling of an aluminum/SiC MMC. Titanium nitride coated, solid carbide drills were used to investigate the effect of the coolant application method on the performance of the drilling operation. Holes were produced dry, with conventional coolant and with through-the tool coolant. The results provided strong evidence that the conventional application of coolant was having no beneficial effect on the cutting operation compared to dry drilling. However, through-tool cooling gave a significant improvement in performance in terms of tool wear, cutting forces, surface finish and the height of the burrs produced. [S0094-4289(00)02104-6]

The emerging miniaturized high-tech products are required to have increased functionalities of systems within a volumetric size on the order of 1 cm3. Hence, the parts are mesoscopic with complex microscopic features of a few mm length with machining accuracy of better than 1 micrometer with secured surface integrity as components will require high surface finish, tensile stress and crack free surfaces in order to function reliably. One of the characteristics to be measured is the cutting forces on the parts being machined. This paper will present the design, manufacture and testing of a miniature dynamometer capable of measuring cutting forces within a low range of 50N but with a resolution better than 1 mN and high frequency since the micromachining involves small cutting forces but the spindle rotates at high speed. The dynamometer is capable of measuring forces in five directions (±x, ±y, and z). The instrument was calibrated and exhibit very good results leading to a true validation. This instrument is assembled on a micro milling desktop machine designed in-house. It will not only support predicting the surface finish and chip thickness but also monitoring tool wear evolution and hence prevents/reduce tool breakage known to be one of the main issues in micro-milling.

A new free-machining additive, MnX, has been reported to improve the machining performance of ferrous powder metallurgy (PM) materials. This work investigated this claim by comparing the performance of three otherwise identical PM materials containing: no additive, conventional manganese sulphide (MnS) additions and the new MnX additive. A turning operation and cutting speeds of 100–250 m/min were used during which cutting forces, tool wear and surface finish were measured. The MnX material was found to exhibit superior performance. However, this was most noticeable at higher cutting speeds and at the lower cutting speeds, differences in performance were substantially reduced. [S0094-4289(00)02004-1]

Cutting tools suffer severe abrasive friction and wear in high speed milling of graphite. Cutting forces were measured and analyzed using time-frequency analysis method to reveal the correlation between cutting force variations and tool wear evolution. The static and dynamic force components increased prominently with tool wear. The cutting force Fy was found the most sensitive to the tool wear evolution. The waveform of cutting force became periodic and irregular with the increase of tool wear. Good correlation was found between the first force harmonic and tool wear.

Hard turning of harder material differs from conventional turning because of its larger specific cutting forces requirements. The beneficial effects of hard turning can be offset by excessive temperature generation which causes rapid tool wear or premature tool failure if the brittle cutting tools required for hard turning are not used properly. Under these considerations, the concept of high-pressure coolant (HPC) presents itself as a possible solution for high speed machining in achieving slow tool wear while maintaining cutting forces at reasonable levels, if the high pressure cooling parameters can be strategically tuned. This paper deals with an experimental investigation of some aspects of the turning process applied on hardened steel (HRC48) using coated carbide tool under high-pressure coolant, comparing it with dry cut. The results indicate that the use of high-pressure coolant leads to reduced surface roughness, delayed tool flank wear, and lower cutting temperature, while also having a minimal effect on the cutting forces.

A large statistically designed orthogonal tube turning experiment measuring the forces, tool wear and surface finish involved in machining of AISI 1020 steel under four different cutting environments. The environments studied were nitrogen and cold compressed air against dry machining. Each data run consisted of one minute cutting time at two different feeds of 0.002″/rev. and 0.004″/rev. at a constant depth of cut of 0.125″ width of cut using High speed steel tool material inserts. Post-mortem analysis was carried out under a Keyance microscope to evaluate the wear on the rake face. The cutting force and the thrust force are collected during the machining process with a dynamometer and the data is further processed using Labview software. The surface finish on the work piece after the cutting process is also evaluated based on the average roughness measurement taken from a contact type profilometer. The advantages of using such gaseous cutting fluids are discussed.
