This paper proposes an implementation of calibrated acoustic emission (AE) and vibration techniques to monitor progressive stages of flank wear on carbide tool tips. Three cutting conditions were used on workpiece material, type EN24T, in turning operation. The root-mean-square value of AE (AErms) and the coherence function between the acceleration signals at the tool tip in the tangential and ...

The tool wear of cutting tools has a very strong impact on product quality as well as on the efficiency of machining processes overall. Despite the current high automation level in the machining industry, a few key issues prevent complete automation of the entire turning process. One of these issues is tool wear, which is usually measured off the machine tool and is still done by hand under a t...

One of the most important tasks of automatic tool monitoring systems for CNC-lathes is the supervision of a tool's wear. Considering the state of wear and the actual working process (e.g. rough or nish turning) it is possible to exchange a tool (or only the insert) just in time, which o ers signi cant economic advantages. This paper presents a new method to estimate two wear parameters by means...

The deep cryogenic treatment is a complementary operation that is done on a variety of tool steels aimed at improving their abrasion resistance and hardness. In the case of the H13 hot-work steel, which is widely used at high temperatures as a hot-deformation tool, we need to determine the efficiency of subzero treatment on it at the working temperature. In this regard, this paper is focu...

The tool wear is an unavoidable phenomenon when using coated carbide tools during hard turning of hardened steels. This   work focuses on the prediction of tool wear using regression analysis and artificial neural network (ANN).The work piece taken into consideration is AISI4140 steel hardened to 47 HRC. The models are developed from the results of experiments, which are carried out based on De...

This study investigates dry machining of hypereutectic silicon–aluminum alloys assisted with vortex-tube (VT) cooling. The objective is to reduce cutting temperatures and tool wear by enhanced heat dissipation through the chilled air generated by a VT. A machining experiment, cutting mechanics analysis, and temperature simulations are employed to (1) model the heat transfer of a cutting tool sy...

surface roughness of engineering parts is very significant property that effectively influences on the wear and fatigue strength. there are many methods for improving surface quality of engineering parts such as grinding, lapping and honing. one of the methods for improving surface quality is roller burnishing. roller burnishing improves surface quality of engineering parts by means of cold wor...

aa8090 is an extra light and deformable group of lithium containing aluminum alloys which have recently replaced some aerospace aluminum alloys, such as 2000 and 7000 series, due to their higher elastic modulus and lower specific weight. in this study, aa8090 matrix composites containing 3, 6 and 9 vol.% sic were cast using a modified stir casting method. the casting billets were deformed thoug...
