Study on Tool Life of Surface Textured Tool in Dry Cutting of Ti-6Al-4V Alloys

Article Preview

Abstract:

Surface textured tools were fabricated by laser beam machining. Dry cutting of Ti-6Al-4V alloys was carried out with these surface textured tools and conventional tools for comparison. The cutting temperature, tool flank wear and surface roughness of processed workpiece were measured. The experimental formulas of tool life based on DOT method were developed. Results show that the surface textured tool can reduce the surface roughness of workpiece, and the tool life of surface textured tool is improved by 15% or so compared with the conventional one.
