Abstract Although Inconel 718 is an important material for modern aircraft and aerospace, it is a kind material, which is known to have low machinability. Especially, while these types of materials are machined, high cutting temperatures, BUE on cutting tool, high cutting forces and work hardening occur. Therefore, in recent years, instead of producing new cutting tools that can withstand these difficult conditions, cryogenic process, which is a heat treatment method to increase the wear resistance and hardness of the cutting tool, has been applied. In this experimental study, feed force, surface roughness, vibration, cutting tool wear, hardness and abrasive wear values that occurred as a result of milling of Inconel 718 material by means of cryogenically treated and untreated cutting tools were investigated. Three different cutting speeds (35-45-55 m/min) and three different feed rates (0.02-0.03-0.04 mm/tooth) at constant depth of cut (0.2 mm) were used as cutting parameters in the experiments. As a result of the experiments, lower feed forces, surface roughness, vibration and cutting tool wear were obtained with cryogenically treated cutting tools. As the feed rate and cutting speed were increased, it was seen that surface roughness, vibration and feed force values increased. At the end of the experiments, it was established that there was a significant relation between vibration and surface roughness. However, there appeared an inverse proportion between abrasive wear and hardness values. While BUE did not occur during cryogenically treated cutting tools, it was observed that BUE occurred in cutting tools which were not cryogenically treated.

AbstractThe nickel alloy has good mechanical strength and corrosion resistance at high temperature; it is extensively used in aerospace and biomedical and energy industries, as well as alloy designs of different chemical compositions to achieve different mechanical properties. However, for high mechanical strength, low thermal conductivity, and surface hardening property, the nickel alloy has worse cutting tool life and machining efficiency than general materials. Therefore, how to select the optimum machining parameters will influence the workpiece quality, cost, and machining time. This research will be using a new experimental design methodology to the cutting parameter planning for nickel-based alloy cutting test, and used the uniform design methodology to cutting test to reduce the number of experiments. Three independent variable parameters are set up, including cutting speed, feed rate, and cutting depth, and four dependent variable parameters are set up, including cutting tool wear, surface roughness, machining time, and cutting force. A nickel alloy turning parameter model is built by using regression analysis to further predict the I/O relationship among various combinations of variables. The errors between actual values and prediction values are validated. When the cutting tool wear (VB) is 2.72~6.18%, the surface roughness (Ra) is 4.10~7.72%, the machining time (T) is 3.75~8.82%, and the cutting force (N) is 1.54~7.42%; the errors of various dependent variables are approximately less than 10%, so a high precision estimation model is obtained through a few experiments of uniform design method.

In the deep-hole boring process on pure niobium tube, there exist some problems including serious tool wear, tough chips, and poor surface quality. In order to bore high-quality deep holes on rolled niobium tube, the cutting tool structure and boring process parameters suitable for machining rolled niobium tube were designed and two experimental schemes were proposed. The results showed that the geometric parameters of the cutting tool and process parameters have important influences on the tool wear, chip morphologies, hole-axis deflection, and hole surface roughness. By adjusting the geometric parameters of the cutting tool and boring process parameters, reasonable geometric parameters of the cutting tool and boring process parameters were obtained.

Al 7075

 Recently, almost 70% of a commercial jetliner’s airframe is made of aluminium alloys. It is predicted that the application of aluminium alloy is to increase up to 65% by the year 2025. They are typically used because of their high strength to weight ratio. However, there are some drawbacks during machining aluminium alloy such as the adhesion wear and built-up edge (BUE) formation that can shorten tool life. As the tool wears, the machining performance, surface roughness, and cutting tool life are affected significantly. A lot of studies were conducted in order to minimize this critical issue. This project presents a study of the cutting tool performance of an uncoated carbide tool in dry turning operation on Al 7075-T651, in which the tool wear rate, volume of material removed, wear mechanism, and surface roughness were investigated. The machining tests were conducted on a CNC lathe machine to obtain the tool wear and surface roughness of the machined work piece. The average flank wear was measured using a digital microscope, whereas the wear mechanism was observed using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The average surface roughness (Ra) was measured using a surface roughness tester. The cutting time for this experiment was fixed at 40 minutes and all the results were analysed within this time range to evaluate the tool performance in the turning of Al 7075-T651. The results revealed that the tool performs better at low cutting speed, 250 m/min, by reducing the tool wear rate by 33%. The cutting speed of 250 m/min also contributed to 71% higher volume of material removed during the machining tests. The dominant type of wear found was flank wear, while the main principal of wear mechanism is adhesion. At higher cutting speed, the surface roughness was improved. Based on the results, it can be concluded that high cutting tool performance is achieved when low tool wear growth rate, high volume of material removal, and low surface roughness during turning operation are obtained.

Ia biasa digunakan kerana nisbah kekuatan kepada berat yang tinggi. Walau bagaimanapun, terdapat beberapa kekurangan semasa pemesinan aloi aluminum ini iaitu pemakaian pelekat dan pembentukan binaan tepi (BUE) yang mengurangkan jangka hayat mata alat. Apabila mata alat menjadi haus, prestasi mesin, kekasaran permukaan, dan jangka hayat mata alat pemotong terjejas dengan ketara. Banyak kajian telah dijalankan bagi mengurangkan isu kritikal ini. Projek ini mengkaji prestasi mata alat pemotong karbida tidak bersalut dalam operasi mesin larik kering pada Al 7075-T651, di mana kadar haus mata alat, kuantiti bahan yang dibuang, mekanisme haus dan kekasaran permukaan telah diselidiki. Ujian pemesinan dijalankan pada mesin CNC mesin larik bagi mendapatkan kadar haus mata alat dan kekasaran permukaan material yang dimesin. Purata haus pengapit mata alat diukur dengan menggunakan mikroskop digital, manakala mekanisme haus dipantau menggunakan Mikroskop Elektronik Pengimbas (SEM). Purata kekasaran permukaan (Ra) diukur menggunakan alat penguji kekasaran permukaan. Tempoh masa pemotongan bagi eksperimen ini telah ditetapkan pada 40 minit dan semua keputusan telah dianalisa dalam tempoh masa ini bagi menilai prestasi mata alat dalam melarik Al 7075-T651. Hasil menunjukkan prestasi mata alat lebih baik pada kelajuan pemotongan rendah, 250 m/min dengan mengurangkan kadar haus mata alat sehingga 33%. Kelajuan pemotongan 250 m/min juga menyumbang kepada 71% peningkatan ke atas jumlah bahan yang dibuang semasa ujian pemesinan. Jenis haus yang dominan telah ditemui pada pengapit mata alat, manakala mekanisme haus yang utama adalah lekatan. Pada kelajuan pemotongan yang tinggi, kekasaran permukaan didapati lebih baik. Berdasarkan keputusan, dapat disimpulkan bahawa prestasi mata alat pemotong yang bagus dapat dicapai apabila kadar haus mata alat adalah rendah, jumlah penyingkiran bahan yang tinggi dan kekasaran permukaan yang rendah semasa operasi pelarikan dijalankan.
