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.

Cladding Layers

Background: As an important method of remanufacturing, laser cladding can be used to obtain the parts with specific shapes by stacking materials layer by layer. The formation mechanism of laser cladding determines the “Staircase effect”, which makes the surface quality can hardly meet the dimensional accuracy of the parts. Therefore, the subsequent machining must be performed to improve the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of cladding parts. Methods: In this paper, chip formation, cutting force, cutting temperature, tool wear, surface quality, and optimization of cutting parameters in the subsequent cutting of laser cladding layer are analyzed. Scholars have expounded and studied these five aspects but the cutting mechanism of laser cladding need further research. Results: The characteristics of cladding layer are similar to that of difficult to machine materials, and the change of parameters has a significant impact on the cutting performance. Conclusion: The research status of subsequent machining of cladding layers is summarized, mainly from the aspects of chip formation, cutting force, cutting temperature, tool wear, surface quality, and cutting parameters optimization. Besides, the existing problems and further developments of subsequent machining of cladding layers are pointed out. The efforts are helpful to promote the development and application of laser cladding remanufacturing technology.

Titanium alloy Ti1023 is a typical difficult-to-cut material. Tool wear is easy to occur in machining Ti1023, which has a significant negative effect on surface integrity. Turning is one of the common methods to machine Ti1023 parts and machined surface integrity has a direct influence on the fatigue life of parts. To control surface integrity and improve anti-fatigue behavior of Ti1023 parts, it has an important significance to study the influence of tool wear on the surface integrity and fatigue life of Ti1023 in turning. Therefore, the effect of tool wear on the surface roughness, microhardness, residual stress, and plastic deformation layer of Ti1023 workpieces by turning and low-cycle fatigue tests were studied. Meanwhile, the influence mechanism of surface integrity on anti-fatigue behavior also was analyzed. The experimental results show that the change of surface roughness caused by worn tools has the most influence on anti-fatigue behavior when the tool wear VB is from 0.05 to 0.25 mm. On the other hand, the plastic deformation layer on the machined surface could properly improve the anti-fatigue behavior of specimens that were proved in the experiments. However, the higher surface roughness and significant surface defects on surface machined utilizing the worn tool with VB = 0.30 mm, which leads the anti-fatigue behavior of specimens to decrease sharply. Therefore, to ensure the anti-fatigue behavior of parts, the value of turning tool wear VB must be rigorously controlled under 0.30 mm during finishing machining of titanium alloy Ti1023.

In the current study, the potential of dry machining of the titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V with uncoated tungsten carbide solid endmills was explored. It is demonstrated that tribo-oxidation is the dominant wear mechanism, which can be suppressed by milling in an extreme high vacuum adequate (XHV) environment. The latter was realized by using a silane-doped argon atmosphere. In the XHV environment, titanium adhesion on the tool was substantially less pronounced as compared to reference machining experiments conducted in air. This goes hand in hand with lower cutting forces in the XHV environment and corresponding changes in chip formation. The underlying mechanisms and the ramifications with respect to application of this approach to dry machining of other metals are discussed.

High Pressure Coolant

Titanium alloys are known for their excellent mechanical properties, especially at high temperature. But this specificity of titanium alloys can cause high cutting forces as well as a significant release of heat that may entail a rapid wear of the cutting tool. To cope with these problems, research has been taken in several directions. One of these is the development of assistances for machining. In this study, we investigate the high pressure coolant assisted machining of titanium alloy Ti17. High pressure coolant consists of projecting a jet of water between the rake face of the tool and the chip. The efficiency of the process depends on the choice of the operating parameters of machining and the parameters of the water jet such as its pressure and its diameter. The use of this type of assistance improves chip breaking and increases tool life. Indeed, the machining of titanium alloys is generally accompanied by rapid wear of cutting tools, especially in rough machining. The work done focuses on the wear of uncoated tungsten carbide tools during machining of Ti17. Rough and finish machining in conventional and in high pressure coolant assistance conditions were tested. Different techniques were used in order to explain the mechanisms of wear. These tests are accompanied by measurement of cutting forces, surface roughness and tool wear. The Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analysis technique made it possible to draw the distribution maps of alloying elements on the tool rake face. An area of material deposition on the rake face, characterized by a high concentration of titanium, was noticed. The width of this area and the concentration of titanium decreases in proportion with the increasing pressure of the coolant. The study showed that the wear mechanisms with and without high pressure coolant assistance are different. In fact, in the condition of conventional machining, temperature in the cutting zone becomes very high and, with lack of lubrication, the cutting edge deforms plastically and eventually collapses quickly. By contrast, in high pressure coolant assisted machining, this problem disappears and flank wear (VB) is stabilized at high pressure. The sudden rupture of the cutting edge observed under these conditions is due to the propagation of a notch and to the crater wear that appears at high pressure. Moreover, in rough condition, high pressure assistance made it possible to increase tool life by up to 400%.
