“…The approach to applying more resistant materials has an advantage, however it is not only possible to increase the wear of tools. Another possibility to improve tool parameters and process performance is proper treatment, such as cryogenic treatment and coating of tool electrodes [ 34 , 35 , 36 ]. Therefore, further research can also be carried out in this area for developed material and methods of treatment.…”

In the current work, several composites made with fly ash reinforcements are used to conduct electrical discharge machining (EDM) on stainless steel that is commercially accessible. Four composites were prepared with 2.5 to 10% reinforcement of fly ash with steps of 2.5%, copper is used as the matrix material. The specimens were created using the powder metallurgy method, which involved compaction pressures of 450 MPa and 900 °C for 90 min of sintering. The prepared composites are used as the electrode tool for EDM. EDM studies were carried out at two different current amplitudes (5A and 15A) by maintaining the Pulse on time (100 µs), Pulse off time (50 µs), and the depth of machining as 2 mm. The findings show that the addition of more fly ash to the copper matrix increased the material removal rate when cutting the SS304 plate and had a negative impact on the tool. The composite loses its ability to transfer heat during machining as the level of fly ash increases, raising the temperature in the copper matrix and causing the copper to melt more quickly at the electrode interface during machining, leading to increased electrode wear. While tool life was reduced because of the increase in current amplitude, machinability was enhanced.

“…As a result, the cutting temperatures of micro-textured tools can be reduced due to the minor shear deformations of the chips as well as the reduced tool–chip frictions. Meanwhile, the heat-radiating areas are increased by fabrication of surface textures [ 4 ], which may reduce the cutting temperature by expediting the heat dissipation as a result.…”

“…It is also thought that surface texturing on cemented carbide cutting tools can alleviate tool wear. There are many micro-pit arrays on the textured surface that can store lubricants and capture wear debris [ 4 , 5 ]. Surface texturing has also been proved to be effective in improving cutting performance.…”

Micro-textured tools were fabricated by making textures on rake faces and filling them with molybdenum disulfide. Dry milling of Ti-6Al-4V alloys was carried out with the micro-textured tools and conventional tools for comparison. Results showed that micro-textured tools can reduce the resultant cutting forces, cutting temperatures, and power consumption by approximately 15%, 10%, and 5%, respectively. Meanwhile, the developed tools can improve tool lives by approximately 20–25%. The radial width of cut, the cutting speed, and the axial depth of cut all had statistical and physical effects on the energy consumption per unit of volume in dry milling of Ti-6Al-4V alloys, while the feed per tooth seemed to have no significant effect. The mechanism for improved performance of micro-textured tools can be mainly interpreted as their self-lubricating function.

“…At present, surface texture has been proven to be an effective method to reduce friction and wear at contact interfaces [8][9]. Wu [10] et al proved that the reduction of contact area and the retention of debris were the main reasons for reducing the micro-texture wear. Surface micro-texture technology has been widely used in various industrial fields.…”

Invar 36 alloy is an iron-nickel alloy with an ultra-low coefficient of thermal expansion, which is widely used in cryogenic fields of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and aerospace. However, the wear under extremely cryogenic and dry conditions is a key problem for Invar 36 alloy applied in the bearing of cryogenic submersible pump. In this work, we are mainly for improving the cryogenic tribological performance of Invar 36 alloy through laser surface texturing. Three different types of surface micro-textures were prepared on Invar 36 alloy specimens. And the effects of these micro-textures on the friction and wear properties of Invar 36 alloy were investigated. The results show that groove-channel micro-texture has the lowest coefficient of friction and wear rate under normal and -196 °C. Further research shows that this is because the channel structure of groove-channel micro-texture is more conducive to the transfer of most debris generated caused by wear, which successfully reduces the occurrence of abrasive wear. Scanning Electron Microscopy/Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy was utilized to explain the cryogenic tribological performance of the micro-textures.
