Experimental Investigation on Ultrasonic Vibration Assisted Turning of Stainless Steels with PCD Tool

Abstract:

The demand for surface quality and dimensional accuracy of ferrous metallic components has increased markedly at present. Whereas, it is clear known that diamond tool could not be used for cutting operation of ferrous metals ascribed to excessive tool wear. In this paper, a series of experimental investigations for various stainless steels with ultrasonic vibration assisted turning were proposed. The micro-morphology of rake and flank face of diamond was detected by scanning electron microscopy, in order to discuss the influence law of material composition on tool wear. In addition, the effect of cutting parameters such as depth of cut, feed rate and amplitude on tool wear and surface quality were deeply studied with ultrasonic vibration cutting. The results revealed that this technological measure has enhanced tool life, decreased cutting force and improved surface quality to a large extent.
