Super-alloys encompass great challenges in machinability. One such alloy of much interest applications is Inconel 718. Its increased hardness, low thermal diffusivity and high temperature strength make it desirable for applications, at the same time rendering its machining a demanding task. Extensive studies have been performed on machinability 718, from turning process stand-point. However, th...

To cut the cost of laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process, which is much higher than that traditional manufacturing an effective implementation optimization analysis needed. The study investigated LPBF Inconel 718 alloy with Taguchi method and principal component (PCA), covering four control factors at three levels in process. It focused on mechanical properties, namely tensile strength, elonga...

Like most other fundamental mechanical components which form the basis of many mechanical systems, springs have existed since the Bronze Age for storage or release of energy, absorption or utilization of vibration, relaxation or absorption of impact force and when unloaded, return to the original position or to the original shape. Quality, service requirement, performance as well as durability ...

The aim of this paper is to characterize welding of AISI 310 austenitic stainless steel to Inconel 657 for use in oil-refining industries. The welds were produced using four types of filler materials; nickel-based alloys designated as Inconel 82, A, 617, and 310 SS. The interfaces and heat-affected zones were characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Interfaces on the two sides...

In this work, the dry turning of Inconel 601 alloy in a environment with PVD-coated cutting inserts was studied. Turning performed at various speeds, feeds, insert shapes, corner radii, rake angles, and approach angles. After machining, arithmetic mean surface roughness (Ra) flank wear (VB) were measured, material removal rate also calculated (MRR). An analysis variance (ANOVA) to determine eff...

In this innovative work, Inconel 718 alloy turning simulation models under dry and cryogenic machining (Cryo) conditions are developed. The machinability characteristics of the aforementioned were assessed with relation to cutting temperature (Tct) force (Fcf). comparison Tct Fcf results from those obtained identical experimental served as additional evidence effectiveness suggested model. By v...
