Chip Morphology Investigation among Dry, Wet and Gas Cooled Machining of Super Duplex Stainless Steel

Abstract:

In this paper, a detailed comparison between dry, wet and gas-cooled turning has been presented based on experimental study. Machining of super duplex stainless steel is considered. Cutting tool considered in this paper is uncoated carbide tool. It was observed that gas cooled machining provides a better machining performance while compared with the dry and the wet machining. Gas cooled machining is particularly needed in case of high speed machining and hard turning. In this study we investigated the chip morphology for various condition of machining and concludes that gas cooled machining is suitable for machining at higher production rate..
