Machinability Improvement During High-Speed End-Milling Of Inconel 718 Alloy, Chukwujekwu Nnadi Jan 2014

Machinability Improvement During High-Speed End-Milling Of Inconel 718 Alloy, Chukwujekwu Nnadi

Masters Theses

“This thesis presents the results of the experimental investigation of the effects of machining parameters (spindle speed and feedrate) and cooling strategies [Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL), Cryogenic Liquid Nitrogen (LN2), and combined (MQL+LN2)] on cutting force components, cutting temperature, tool wear and surface roughness during high-speed slot end-milling of Inconel 718 alloy. In addition, a comparative evaluation of the three cooling strategies was conducted for cutting force components, surface roughness and residual stresses. All end-milling experiments were conducted on a Cincinnati Milacron Vertical Machining center (VMC), using a 0.5 inch (12.7 mm) diameter, 0.03 inch (0.762 …


Mechanistic Identification Of Specific Force Coefficients In Endmilling Inconel 718 Under Four Cooling Strategies, Mahmood Shaman Ameen Jan 2014

Mechanistic Identification Of Specific Force Coefficients In Endmilling Inconel 718 Under Four Cooling Strategies, Mahmood Shaman Ameen

Masters Theses

“This thesis presents the results of experimental investigations of the mechanistic identification of specific force coefficients for uncoated bull-nose and uncoated wavy-edge/bull-nose helical endmilling of Inconel 718 under emulsion, minimum quantity lubrication (MQL), cryogenic (LN2), and combined (MQL + LN2) cooling. Several slot milling tests were conducted on Inconel 718 workpiece block with depth of cut 1.25 mm. The cutting parameters were varied as: spindle speed, n = 250 and 750 rev/min, feedrate, f = 25–75 mm/min by using uncoated carbide bull-nose helical endmill. Also 24 peripheral milling tests were conducted on Inconel 718 workpiece block …
