Inconel 718 is a material often used in the aerospace and marine industries due to its properties and ability to work in harsh environments. However, its machining is difficult, and therefore methods are sought to facilitate this process. One of such methods is turn-milling. This paper presents the forces during orthogonal turn-milling of the Inconel 718 alloy. In this machining, both the side and the end edge are involved in the material removal, which causes the tool to be more loaded. The forces during turn-milling can be up to 50% higher than in the case of milling, which causes damage to the tool. Tool wear during machining has a significant impact on the values of the cutting force proportional coefficients. In the case of the tested material, it is important to take it into account when creating cutting force models.
Presented is method for prediction of cutting force components during end milling process by utilizing finite element analysis (FEA) combined with classical analytical approach. Hybrid model predicts Ff and FfN force components which are compared with empirical measurements from milling operation.
A B S T R A C TThis paper presents analysis of flank wear influence on forces in orthogonal turning of 42CrMo4 steel and evaluates capacity of finite element model to provide such force values. Data about magnitude of feed and cutting force were obtained from measurements with force tensiometer in experimental test as well as from finite element analysis of chip formation process in ABAQUS/Explicit software. For studies an insert with complex rake face was selected and flank wear was simulated by grinding operation on its flank face. The aim of grinding inset surface was to obtain even flat wear along cutting edge, which after the measurement could be modeled with CAD program and applied in FE analysis for selected range of wear width. By comparing both sets of force values as function of flank wear in given cutting conditions FEA model was validated and it was established that it can be applied to analyze other physical aspects of machining. Force analysis found that progression of wear causes increase in cutting force magnitude and steep boost to feed force magnitude. Analysis of Fc/Ff force ratio revealed that flank wear has significant impact on resultant force in orthogonal cutting and magnitude of this force components in cutting and feed direction. Surge in force values can result in transfer of substantial loads to machine-tool interface.
W artykule przedstawiono analizę wpływu zużycia powierzchni przyłożenia (wskaźnik VBB) na składowe siły całkowitej oraz rozkład nacisków na ostrzu podczas toczenia ortogonalnego. Dane eksperymentalne uzyskano, mierząc składowe siły całkowitej siłomierzem tensometrycznym oraz przez rejestrację wartości reakcji ostrza w modelu MES procesu formowania wióra. Badania eksperymentalne posłużyły do walidacji modeli numerycznych przygotowanych w programie ABAQUS. Określone pasmo zużycia zostało zamodelowane geometrycznie na powierzchni przyłożenia, a wpływ tego zużycia został oceniony w niezależnych symulacjach. Model numeryczny formowania wióra wykorzystuje równanie konstytutywne Johnsona-Cooka do opisu wartości i rozkładu naprężeń w przedmiocie obrabianym, a ostrze z zamodelowanym zużyciem zostało opisane jako ciało idealnie sztywne. Mechanikę procesu skrawania przedstawiono, odwołując się do modelu Merchanta skrawania ortogonalnego, nanosząc wykreślnie wektory przyrostu składowych siły całkowitej obliczone MES na tle zamodelowanego konturu strefy skrawania. Wyniki pomiarów i symulacji wskazują, że wzrost zużycia określony wskaźnikiem VBB wpływa bezpośrednio na wzrost składowych siły całkowitej.Słowa kluczowe: metoda elementów skończonych, zużycie narzędzia, modelowanie, rozkład nacisków, składowe siły całkowitej
