| Popis: | Advanced carbide tooling for turning operations have been proposed for some time by several cutting tool manufacturers. When machining continuous chip-forming materials, several sintered chip-breaker geometries are available in the market. They are usually classified according to the their application range, defined by the classical depth of cut/feed areas where chip-breaking occurs and an acceptable chip form is obtained. Usually, no information is available, from the cutting tool manufacturer, on the quantitative effect of cutting speed on their chip-breaking efficiency areas. In this paper, research work carried out at Instituto Superior Tecnico (IST) is presented, on the effect of cutting speed on chip-breaking when using advanced carbide tooling with sintered chip-breakers. Several commercially available chip-breakers were used. The preliminary results obtained show that an increase in the cutting speed reduces the area of efficient chip-breaking since it increases the minimum feed for chip-breaking. As expected, an increase In shear angle with cutting speed was observed. Consequently, when comparing the efficiency of several types of chip-breakers, observing the chip-breaker diagrams provided by the manufacturers, one can incur a considerable error since no standard cutting speed was used for the establishment of the presented data: a wider application range chip-breaker can have a poorer performance (usually at the lower feeds) than the apparently more restricted chip-breaker. Due to the effect of cutting speed on minimum feed for chip-breaking, when machining a continuous chip-forming material, a chip-breaker with a wide application range should be selected. From the optimised set of cutting conditions (mainly feed and depth of cut), the selection of a chip-breaker should take into consideration that the use of conditions lying on the boundaries of the chip-breaker application range can have a negative effect on machining process control mainly due to variations in chip behaviour with changing cutting conditions. |
