This article focused on comparing of the properties of the two most used materials, Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS) and Polylactic Acid (PLA), in the Rapid Prototyping (RP) process using the Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) method. The thin-walled components were manufactured by Zortrax M200 and DeeGreen 3D printer. Print settings and printer parameters are also mentioned in the article. The printed models were 3D digitized using the GOM ATOS Triple Scan II optical 3D scanner. Main section is focused on the analysis of individual components in the GOM Inspect software. Authors used this software to measure the individual distances. The last section of the paper focuses especially on the evaluation of obtained results in the form of tables and a chart.
Nitride hard coatings Al25.5Cr21Si3.5N were deposited on WC-Co substrates with a different thickness and a negative substrate bias voltage by the LAteral Rotating Cathodes Arc technology. The nanoindentation tests were performed for analysis of AlCrSiN coatings in order to determine the most promising combination of parameters for subsequent machining. On the basis of results of nanohardness measurement and Ratio H/E*, which represents the resistance to plastic deformation and cracking, deposition conditions were selected for coating of turning cemented carbide inserts. For the evaluation of coating adhesion to substrate, Mercedes adhesion test was used. Chip forming tests and long-term tool life tests were performed for determination of cutting parameters (cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut) for AlCrSiN coated cemented carbide inserts when machining austenitic stainless steel material.
The contribution is dealing with the forging die renovation by hard facing and following machining processes. Deviation of weldment are creating during all types of welding technologies. Shape deviation determining is necessary to purpose of machining and welded layers control quality. The optical scanner ATOS II TripleScan was used to evaluate a quality and deformations of hard facing layers created by fusion welding. Obtained 3D model of the die was used not only for evaluation of quality but also to use as workpiece for CAM simulation of roughing process. The usage of obtained 3D model by ATOS II TripleScan indicate a significant improvement of machining time based on CAQ technology.
The article deals with the tool life of ball nose end mills and surface roughness of steel C45 depending on contouring and copy milling. The aim was to determine and compare the wear of ball nose end mill and surface roughness parameter for different types of ball end milling strategies, as well as to specify particular steps of the measurement process. For tool life test, DMG DMU 85 monoBLOCK 5-axis CNC milling machine was used. In the experiment, the cutting speeds, feed rates, axial and radial depth of cut were constant. The coated cemented carbide was used as tool material. The cutting tool wear was measured on Zoller Genius 3s and laser Blum Micro Compact NT . Surtronic 3+ (Taylor Hobson) was used for surface roughness measurement. The results show different achieved surface roughness parameter of machined material C45 and tool life of ball nose end mills depending on milling strategy.
