“…During the milling process, the tool and the workpiece keep in continuous contact, friction and frictional heat generated in the relative motion play important roles in the surface quality of workpiece [ 41 ]. Moreover, the aluminum alloy is soft material, which makes it easy to stick to the tool during milling, and then results in an increase in the surface roughness [ 42 ].…”

The machining process of aluminum alloy usually produces built-up edge and tool sticking problems due to their low hardness and large plastic deformation, which may further affect the machined surface quality and tool life. This paper aims to investigate the influence of different cutting fluids on the machined surface quality and tool life during the milling process of 7050 aluminum alloy. A novel cutting fluid (QC-2803) was considered in the study, which is synthesized by addition of alkyl alcohol amide and chlorinated polyolefin, and the traditional cutting fluid (CCF-10) was used as the control group. The physical and chemical properties of two cutting fluids were characterized. The milling process of 7050 aluminum alloy was carried out under two different cutting fluid conditions. The machined surface morphology, cutting force and tool wear morphology were observed during the process. Results show that the surface tension of the novel cutting fluid is significantly lower than that of the traditional cutting fluid, which makes it easier to produce a lubricating film between the aluminum alloy and tool, and further benefits the machined surface quality and tool life. As a result, the surface roughness and cutting force are reduced by ~20.0% and ~42.9%, respectively, and the tool life is increased by 25.6% in the case of the novel cutting fluid (QC-2803). The results in this paper revealed the important laws of cutting fluid with metal surface quality, cutting performance and tool wear, which helps to control the machined surface quality and tool life by the selection of cutting fluid during metal milling.

The development of micro-products in industry, like aviation, medical equipment, electronics, etc, has been increasing lately. The need for scaling down of product has been increasing to make the product simpler and complex. Micro-milling has capabilities in producing complex parts. In this study, mapping and comparing the result of the machining process of Inconel 718 and Aluminum Alloy 1100 was employed. In this experiment, Inconel 718 was used as workpiece material and the result of Aluminum Alloy taken from recent studies. Then, A cutting tool with a diameter 1 mm carbide coating TiAlN was used in this experiment. The machining process was performed with three varieties of spindle speed and feed rate with a constant depth of cut. After the machining is done, the mapping of the result surface roughness of Inconel 718 and AA1100 performed. It was found that Inconel 718 has poor machinability compared with AA 1100. Inconel 718 also has a high manufacturing cost compared to AA 1100 because the cutting tool was easy to wear.

“…The results of the predictive model has been appropriated the results of experimental work very good. Campos et al, (2017) in their study, a model of a mechanical cutting force, which adapted 6351-T6 aluminum alloy in micro-milling process was applied, without regard to homogeneous grain characteristics and tool run-out. Cutting forces experimentally were analyzed, taking into account the different feed rates and cutting speeds.…”

The micro-milling process is relating to the production of miniature parts, and it is one of the significant micromachining processes. The size of parts produced by micromachining is smaller than millimeters and in the range of a few microns. In the last years, the demand for needs to minimal parts in industries, such as biomedical, communication, and aerospace have been increased. To encounter this need, one of the proper solutions is the micro-milling process. In this study, a review of the micro-milling process was achieved in terms of the important common terms and some concepts. Terms like size effect, minimum chip thickness, and ploughing phenomenon were evaluated with respect to literature. These terms can be taken into account to distinguish a major difference between micro and macro cutting processes. In addition to, surface quality is an important required factor for machined parts. In this work also the surface roughness and burr formation mechanism were showed because they represent an inevitable result in the microcutting process. In addition to the micro-milling process have been assessed in terms of important factors used in determining the quality of workpieces such as surface quality, burr formation, and cutting forces. In conclusion, this study investigated the important parameters in the micro-milling process and provided general information to compare the micro-milling with conventional milling.
