Experimental Study on Orthogonal Cutting of Ti6Al4V with Surface Micro-Groove Textured Cutting Tool

Abstract:

Currently biomimetic tribology study shows that high performance surface texture can achieve good friction, anti-adhesion and improve the wear resistance, which brings a new research direction for tool antifriction technology. The orthogonal cutting tests of surface micro-groove cutting tool in machining titanium alloy were presented. Different types of micro-grooves were made using laser in the rake face of uncoated tungsten carbide cutting inserts. Dry with no lubricant and minimal quantity lubricant (MQL) were used as lubrication conditions. Cutting force and cutting temperature were measured and compared. It was found that under MQL condition the surface micro-grooves could effectively improve the friction status between the tool and chip, thereby reducing cutting force and cutting temperature, and also reduce cutting temperature under no lubricant condition. The micro-grooves paralleling with cutting edge had the best effect in three types of micro-grooves.
