Experimental Study on High-Speed Turning of Free-Cutting Steel AISI 12L14 Using Multi-Layer Coated Carbide Tools
Abstract:
AISI 12L14 as a typical free-cutting steel has been widely employed in machinery, energy and metallurgy fields due to its excellent machinability. This research was concerned with the experimental investigation on high-speed turning of AISI 12L14 in terms of cutting force and tool wear with multi-layer (Al2O3/TiCN) CVD coated carbide tool. Results showed that: Depth of cut ap had the dominant effect on the main cutting force, and feed rate f followed. Increase of cutting speed vc was observed to decrease the turning forces. Optimal factor level combination (vc=500m/min, f=0.05mm/r and ap=0.5mm) was obtained through the method of extremum difference analysis. The cutting tool was observed to form sulfide lubricant zone along its rake and flank faces. Ascribed to the presence of sulfide lubricant zone the tool can obtain excellent protection and minor flank wear in the entire turning process. Crater wear was observed occurring on tool rake face and no BUE was found along the cutting edge. In addition, tool flank face suffered abrasive wear and adhesive wear.
