Thermal damage of workpiece material induced by laser machining process can be reduced by using the underwater technique. This method requies the whole workpiece to be submerged in water while a laser beam strikes the work surface for ablation. Though water can cool the workpiece during the ablation, the dynamic features of water can adversely interfere the laser beam. The vapor bubbles created in water can scatter the laser beam and in turn attenuate the laser intensity at the work surface so as the ablation performance. In this paper, the bubble formation caused by laser machining of silicon in water was investigated and analyzed. The shadowgraph technique associated with the high speed camera was used to capture and measure the vapor bubble in water. The bubble size was found to increase with the laser pulse energy. After a number of laser pulses irradiated on the workpiece surface, the bubble was broken up into small ones which can significantly disturb the laser beam so as the ablation performance.

The absorptance of a material at the laser wavelength and as a function of temperature, ranging from room temperature to the removal point, significantly affects the efficiency of the laser machining process. A priori predictions of a laser machining process, using either simplistic or sophisticated models, require knowledge of the material’s absorptance behavior. An experimental apparatus for such measurements is described. The device consists of a specimen mounted inside an integrating sphere, heated rapidly by a CO2 or a Nd:YAG laser. Reflectances are measured with a small focused probe laser (Nd:YAG or CO2), while specimen surface temperatures are recorded by a high-speed pyrometer. Experimental results have been obtained for wavelengths of 1.06 μm (Nd:YAG) and 10.6 μm (CO2) for graphite, alumina, hot-pressed silicon nitride, sintered α-silicon carbide, as well as two continous-fiber ceramic matrix composites (SiC-based). Data are presented for temperatures between room temperature and the ablation/decomposition points.

Abstract This paper presents an overview of the state of knowledge on temperature measurement in the cutting area during magnesium alloy milling. Additionally, results of own research on chip temperature measurement during dry milling of magnesium alloys are included. Tested magnesium alloys are frequently used for manufacturing elements applied in the aerospace industry. The impact of technological parameters on the maximum chip temperature during milling is also analysed. This study is relevant due to the risk of chip ignition during the machining process.

Grinding Conditions

There are strong demands for a machining process capable of reducing the surface roughness of sliding parts, such as auto parts and other components, with high efficiency. In this work, we attempted to grind hardened steel to a mirror-like surface finish with high efficiency using an ultra-high speed grinding process. In the present study, we examined the effects of the work speed and the grinding wheel grain size in an effort to optimize the grinding conditions for accomplishing mirror-like surface grinding with high efficiency. The results showed that increasing the work speed, while keeping grinding efficiency constant, was effective in reducing the work affected layer and that the grinding force of a #200 CBN wheel was lower than that of a #80 CBN wheel. Based on these results, a high-efficiency grinding step with optimized grinding conditions was selected that achieved excellent ground surface quality with a mirror-like finish.

Machining is one of the major manufacturing processes that converts a raw work piece of arbitrary size into a finished product of definite shape of predetermined size by suitably controlling the relative motion between the tool and the work. Lately, machining process is shifting towards high speed machining (HSM) from conventional machining to improve and efficiently increase production, and towards dry machining from excessive coolant used wet machining to improve economy of production. And the tools used are mostly hardened alloys to facilitate HSM. The work piece materials are continually improving their properties by emergence and development of newer and high resistive super alloys (HRSA). In this paper an attempt has been made to validate an experimental result of cutting force obtained by performing HSM on an HRSA Inconel 718, by comparing it with the numerical result obtained by simulating the same setting using DEFORM 3D software. Based on the comparison it is found that the simulated results exhibit close proximity with the experimental results validating the experimental results and the effectiveness of the software.

The Impact

The use of electrical energy and coolants/lubricants has been widely reported in mechanical machining. However, increased research and process innovation in high speed machining has brought about optimised manufacturing cycle times. This has promoted dry machining and the use of minimum quantity lubrication (MQL). This work understudies the impact of different cutting environments in machining H13 tool steel alloys at transition speed regime with emphasis on sustainable machining of the alloy. To achieve this, end milling tests were performed on AISI H13 steel alloy (192 BHN) on a MIKRON HSM 400 high speed machining centre using milling inserts. After each cutting pass, the milling insert was removed for tool wear measurement on the digital microscope. The electrical power consumed was measured with the Fluke 435 power clamp meter mounted on the three phase cable at the back of the machine. It was discovered that MQL has a promising advantage in terms of tool life with 25 minutes of machining, net power requirement of 10% when compared to dry cutting, and environmental benefits when machining H13 tool steel alloy. This work is fundamentally important in assessing the environmental credentials and resource efficiency regime for green machining of H13 tool steel alloysKeywords— H13 tool steel, green machining, process optimization, tool life, cutting environments, energy consumption

Pressure Stress

Beside strain intensity, stress triaxiality (pressure-stress states) is the most important factor to control initiation of ductile fracture in chip segmentation through affecting the loading capacity and strain to failure. The effect of stress triaxiality on failure strain is usually assessed by dynamic Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) or quasi-static tests of tension, compression, torsion, and shear. However, the stress triaxialities produced by these tests are considerably different from those in high speed machining of titanium alloys where adiabatic shear bands (ASB) are associated with much higher strains, stresses and temperatures. This aspect of shear localization and fracture are poorly understood in previous research. This paper aims to demonstrate the role of stress triaxiality in chip segmentation during machining titanium alloy using finite element method. This research promotes a fundamental understanding of thermo-mechanics of the high-speed machining process, and provides a logical insight into the fracture mechanism in discontinuous chips.
