Machinability by Milling of Gray Cast Iron

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the laboratory of cutting machining technologies from the “Gheorghe Asachi” Technical University of Iaşi, a series of investigations on the machinability of cast iron samples having various structures were designed and developed. The aim of the research was to know and to explain the way in which various constituents of some iron castings exert influence on the degree of wear of a milling tool made of high speed steel. Within this research, mathematical empirical models were determined, in order to calculate the cutting speed v60, considered as an indicator for the evaluation of machinability. The research allowed establishing the factors able to have a major influence on tool wear phenomenon and obtaining thus a more complete image concerning the machinability of grey iron used for castings.
