Continuous development of cutting methods for difficult-to-machine materials
July 14, 2022
The best cutting methods for difficult-to-machine materials are constantly evolving, new and difficult-to-machine materials are constantly emerging, and the processing of new materials has always plagued engineers and technicians. Recently, new machining centers, cutting tools, jigs, and CNC cutting technologies have developed rapidly. In addition to cutting, CNC grinding and CNC machining have also achieved unprecedented development. The selection of processing technology for difficult-to-machine materials has been Great expansion.
Of course, the collection of information about the processing of difficult-to-machine materials and the in-depth understanding of the technology are not satisfactory. Because of this, and the continuous emergence of difficult-to-machine materials, people always feel that processing technology is not enough.
For example, the above-mentioned turning processing is converted from continuous cutting to intermittent cutting, which is beneficial to prolong the life of the tool, and the use of the new coated cemented carbide tool further improves the cutting technology level of the difficult-to-machine material. In the machining of difficult-to-machine materials, special attention should be paid to the stability of the tool life. Not only the workpiece material should be properly matched with the tool performance, but also the requirements for machining size, surface roughness and shape accuracy are extremely strict. Therefore, it should not only be special. Attention should be paid to the selection of tools, the clamping of the workpiece and other related technologies.
In the future, the processing of difficult-to-machine material parts will adopt computer-controlled production methods such as CAD/CAM and CNC cutting. Therefore, the improvement of the tool management system such as database construction, tool design and production is extremely important. In the machining of difficult-to-machine materials, the data on cutting conditions, such as the applicable tools, fixtures, process schedules, tool trajectories, etc., should be accumulated as basic data, so that the production methods of parts can be developed in the direction of IT-based. In this way, the cutting technology of difficult-to-machine materials can enter a new stage faster.
