| Abstract |
Although titanium is a very useful material and becoming more in demand, we are faced
with difficulties in machining the material. By applying ultrasonic vibration to the tool tip, interrupted
cutting can be applied. Using ultrasonic vibration-assisted cutting of titanium alloy, we succeeded in
reducing the cutting force. This technology enables us to improve tool wear and surface roughness of
the workpiece. In regards to cutting fluid supply methods, it was found that semi-dry cutting was the
most suitable for ultrasonic vibration-assisted cutting of titanium alloy. |
