The selection of the appropriate machining parameters plays a very important role in the implementation of high-speed machining technology. The case-based reasoning is used in the developing of high-speed machining database to overcome the shortage of available high-speed cutting parameters in machining data handbooks and shop floors. The high-speed machining database developed in this paper includes two main components: the machining database and the case-base. The machining database stores the cutting parameters, cutting tool data, work pieces and their materials data, and other relative data, while the case-base stores mainly the successfully solved cases that are problems of work pieces and their machining. The case description and case retrieval methods are described to establish the case-based reasoning high-speed machining database. With the case retrieval method, some succeeded cases similar to the new machining problem can be retrieved from the case-base. The solution of the most matched case is evaluated and modified, and then it is regarded as the proposed solution to the new machining problem. After verification, the problem and its solution are packed up into a new case, and are stored in the case-base for future applications.展开更多

For the shear localized chip, the parameters used to assess the chip deformation for continuous chip, such as shorten coefficient ξ, shear angle φ and shear strain ε, can not describe the chip deformation correctly or comprehensively. This paper deals with the assessment of chip deformation of shear localization. There are two deformation regions in shear localized chip, one is the chip segment body with relative smaller plastic deformation, another one is the boundary between segments with shear localization, so called shear band. Considering the two distinct deformation regions, two parameters are used to define their deformation respectively. According to the analysis of chip formation process, the equations have been deduced to calculate the shear strains of shear band ε, shear strain of chip segment ε 1 and shear rate so that the shear localized chip deformation can be assessed correctly and comprehensively. By use of this assessment, the chip deformation in machining selenium treated stainless steel (STSS) and common stainless steel at various cutting conditions is investigated. The experiment results obtained by the machining of stainless steel prove that: (1) the shear strain and strain rate increase with the increasing of cutting speed; (2) the shear strain in shear band can be over 10 when cutting speed exceeding 200 m/min for both types of stainless steel, and it is much higher than the strain of chip segment. The difference will be enlarged as the cutting speed increasing; (3) As the comparison, the shear strain for the STSS is a little lower than that for JIS304; (4) The stain rate is extremely high (= 2.5×10 5 1/s ). In range of cutting speed less than 180 m/min, the strain rate for STSS is lower than that for JIS304. However, when the cutting speed is higher than 180 m/min, the strain rate for STSS is higher than that for JIS304.展开更多

Therefore, determining the optimum sawing conditions for a particular stone is of major importance in the natural stone-processing industry. An experimental study was carried out utilizing a fully instrumented block-cutter to investigate the sawing performances of five different types of travertine blocks during cutting with a circular diamond saw. The sawing tests were performed in the down-cutting mode. Performance measurements were determined by measuring the cutting speed and energy consumption. Then, specific energy was determined. The one main cutting parameter, cutting speed, was varied in the investigation of optimum cutting performance. Furthermore, some physico-mechanical properties of file travertine blocks were determined in the laboratory. As a result, it is found that the energy consumption （specific energy） of block cutting machines is highly affected by cutting speed. It is determined that specific energy value usually decreases when cutting speed increases. When the cutting speed is higher than the determined value, the diamond saw can become stuck in the travertine block; this situation can be a problem for the block-cutting machine. As a result, the optimum cutting speed obtained for the travertine mines examined is approximately 1.5-2.0 m/min.展开更多

It is generally known that the life of ceramic cutting tools in machining Inconel 718 is often restric ted by depth-of-cut (DOC) notch wear. In view of the number of various factors involved and the variety of tool materi als and cutting conditions available, the analysis of the DOC notch wear is very difficult. According to previous work concerning the DOC notch wear of ceramics tools, some Al 2O 3 - and Si 3N 4 -based ceramics tools have show n that the degree of tool notching depends on the thermal shock resistance of a tool material and thermal gradients (interrupted cutting, use of flood coolants) . Other observations suggest that there are chemical interactions between the to ol material and the work-piece. At the same time, an analytical technique based on thermodynamic properties for estimating cutting tool wear was proposed. Howe ver, so far, there is no concrete and convincing explanation for the DOC notch w ear. In all previous studies on the DOC notch wear, it is often assumed that notch we ar happened in the contacting region of the cutting tool and the work-piece, wh ile the exact position of notch wear is always neglected. In his article, He Ning measured the distance l n between tool nose and the center of DOC notch wear, and calculated the theoretical working length l d ― the ideal distance between the DOC notch center and the intersection of th e theoretical depth of cut line and the cutting edge. He found that l n is always greater than l d. It means that the position of the DOC notch is not at the depth of cut line, but out of the theoretical cutting area. He supposed that the saw-tooth shaped burrs and fin-shaped chip edges cause the DOC no tch wear, because only the saw-tooth shaped burrs and fin-shaped chip edges ha ve effect on the tools at the region of notch wear. Although He described the reason of notch wear and did some theoretical analysis of it, he has not done some experiments to verify it. In this paper, an experim ent was done to verify He’s assumption about DOC notch wear. In the present exp eriment, which has been done with the ceramic inserts (LT55), Working conditions at the region of DOC notch wear were analyzed. By using a KISTLER 9265B dyn amometer, the dynamic cutting force signals in three directions were pick up. By comparison between the theoretical frequency, with which the saw-shaped burr a nd fin-shaped chip edge impact on the region of notch wear, and the experimenta l results, it can be seen that the high frequency components of dynamic cutting forces mainly result from the impact effects of the saw-shaped burr and fin-sh aped chip edge. In high speed machining of nickel based alloys, DOC notch wear of ceramic tools is mainly because the impact effect of the burr and fin-shaped chip edge causes tools to be of fatigue damage, and the adherence between tool material and work piece material changes the direction of pressure stress and makes the micro-cra ck to appear and extend quickly.展开更多
