Material removal processes • Characteristics- Closer dimensional accuracy.- Most of the heat treated parts may need
additional finishing operations such as grinding.
- Machining with a diamond cutting tool e.g. makes copper mirrors with very high reflectivity.
- Economical for job & batch production.- Size & shape do not add constraints.

Cutting Tools
• Cutting tools may be classified according to the number of major cutting edges (points) involved as follows:
• Single point: e.g., turning tools, shaping, planning and slotting tools and boring tools
• Double (two) point: e.g., drills• Multipoint (more than two): e.g., milling
cutters, broaching tools, hobs,• gear shaping cutters etc.

Mechanism of Metal CuttingMachining is a semi-finishing or finishing process essentially done to impart required or stipulated dimensional and form accuracy and surface finish to enable the product to
• Fulfill its basic functional requirements
• Provide better or improved performance
• Render long service life.
![Page 13: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Mechanism of Metal CuttingMachining is a process or gradual removalor excess material from the preformedblanks in the form of chips.The form of the chips directly or indirectlyindicates :• Nature and behavior of the work material
under machining condition.• Specific Energy Requirement.• Nature & degree of interaction at the chip tool interface
![Page 14: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Mechanism of Metal Cutting
![Page 15: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Chip Formation in Ductile Material• During continuous machining the uncut layer of the work
material just ahead of the cutting tool (edge) is subjected to almost all sided compression as indicated in Fig.
• The force exerted by the tool on the chip arises out of the
normal force, N and frictional force, F as indicated in Fig.
![Page 16: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Chip Formation in Ductile Material• Due to such compression, shear stress develops, within
that compressed region, in different magnitude, in different directions and rapidly increases in magnitude.
• Wherever the value of the shear stress reaches or exceeds the shear strength of that work material in the deformation region, yielding or slip takes place resulting shear deformation in that region.
• But the forces causing the shear stresses in the region of the chip quickly diminishes and finally disappears while that region moves along the tool rake surface towards and then goes beyond the point of chip-tool engagement.
• This phenomenon repeats rapidly resulting in formation and removal of chips in thin layer by layer.
![Page 17: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Chip Formation in Ductile Material
• Metal Cutting phenomenon has been explained in a simple way by Piispannen using a card analogy as shown in Fig.
![Page 18: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Chip Formation in Ductile Material• The pattern and extent of total deformation of the chips due
to the primary and the secondary shear deformations of the chips ahead and along the tool face, as indicated depends upon
• work material• tool; material and geometry
• the machining speed (VC) and feed (so)• cutting fluid application
![Page 19: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Chip Formation in Brittle MaterialThe basic two mechanisms involved in chip formation are• Yielding – generally for ductile materials• Brittle fracture – generally for brittle materials• During machining, first a small crack develops at the tool tip
as shown in Fig.• Due to wedging action of the cutting edge. At the sharp
crack-tip stress concentration takes place.
![Page 20: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Chip Formation in Brittle Material• In case of brittle materials the initiated crack quickly
propagates, under stressing action, and total separation takes place from the parent workpiece through the minimum resistance path as indicated in Fig.
• Machining of brittle material produces discontinuous chips and mostly of irregular size and shape. The process of
forming such chips is schematically shown in Fig.
![Page 21: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Orthogonal & Oblique Cutting• While turning ductile material by a sharp tool, the
continuous chip would flow over the tool’s rake surface and in the direction apparently perpendicular to the principal cutting edge, i.e., along orthogonal plane which is normal to the cutting plane containing the principal cutting edge, as shown in fig
![Page 22: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Orthogonal & Oblique Cutting• Practically, the chip may not flow along the
orthogonal plane for several factors like presence of inclination angle, λ, etc.
![Page 23: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Orthogonal & Oblique Cutting• Effects of oblique cutting• Chip does not flow along the orthogonal plane; Positive λ causes, chip flow deviation away from the finished surface,
which may result lesser further damage to the finished surface but more inconvenience to the operator reduction of mechanical strength of the tool tip increase in temperature at the tool tip more vibration in turning slender rods due to increase in PY (transverse
force) Negative λ may enhance tool life by increasing mechanical strength
and reducing temperature at the tool tip but may impair the finished surface. The chip cross-section may change from rectangle (ideal) to skewed
trapezium The ductile metals( materials) will produce more compact helical chips if
not broken by chip breaker Analysis of cutting forces, chip-tool friction etc. becomes more
complex.
![Page 24: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Types of Chips
• Continuous chips– Ductile material
• Ex: Mild steel, Al
– High speed– Low feed– Small depth of cut
• Discontinuous chips
– Brittle material• Ex: Cast iron
– Low speed– High feed– Large depth of cut
![Page 25: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Types of Chips• Built Up Edge (BUE)
– Some of the cut material will attach to the cutting point.
– This tends to cause the cut to be deeper than the tip of the cutting tool and degrades surface finish.
– Also, periodically the built up edge will break off and remove some of the cutting tool. Thus, tool life is reduced.
![Page 26: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Types of Chips• Built Up Edge (BUE)
– built up edge can be reduced by:
• Increasing cutting speed
• Decreasing feed rate • Increasing rake angle • Reducing friction (by
applying cutting fluid)

elements ( rake angle) and clearance or relief angle.

formation (depth of cut).• t2= increased chip thickness

Cutting Forces• 1/r = chip compression ratio (Measure of how thick the chip has
become compared to the depth of cut)• t1 is defined as depth of cut, but in turning operation it corresponds
to feed.• Practically we measure chip thickness by using micrometer or dial
caliper. From those values we calculate r, since we already know the rake angle we can easily calculate , and also shear strain ().

Tool Wear
• Definition:
The change of shape of the tool from its original shape, during cutting, resulting from the gradual loss of tool material .
• Objectives: Study the general characteristics of tool wear. Understand the causes of tool wear and their
consequences. Set up the tool failure criteria and understand
the meaning of tool-life.
![Page 36: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Tool Wear• Introduction: Cutting tools are subjected to an extremely severe
rubbing process. They are in metal-to-metal contact between the
chip and work piece, under conditions of very high stress at high temperature.
The situation is further aggravated (worsened) due to the existence of extreme stress and temperature gradients near the surface of the tool.
However, wear occurs during the cutting action, and it will ultimately result in the failure of the cutting tool.
![Page 37: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Tool Wear• Tool wear phenomenon: The high contact stress between
the tool rake-face and the chip causes severe friction at the rake face, as well, there is friction between the flank and the machined surface.
The result is a variety of wear patterns and scars which can be observed at the rake face and the flank face Crater wear ,Flank wear, Notch wear, Chipping ,Ultimate wear
![Page 38: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Tool Wear• Rake Face Wear
Crater wear: The chip flows across the rake
face, resulting in severe friction between the chip and rake face, and leaves a scar on the rake face which usually parallels to the major cutting edge.
The crater wear can increase the working rake angle and reduce the cutting force, but it will also weaken the strength of the cutting edge.
The crater depth KT is the most commonly used parameter in evaluating the rake face wear.
![Page 39: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Tool Wear• Flank Wear (Clearance Surface) Wear on the flank (relief) face is
called Flank wear and results in the formation of a wear land.
Wear land formation is not always uniform along the major and minor cutting edges of the tool.
Results from abrasive wear of the cutting edge against the machined surface.
Monitored in production by examining the tool or by tracking the change in size of the tool or machined part.
Measured by using the average and maximum wear land size VB and VB max.
![Page 41: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Tool WearTypical stages of tool wear in normalcutting1. Initial (or Preliminary) wear
region: Caused by micro-cracking, surface
oxidation and carbon loss layer. Small contact area and high
contact pressure will result in high wear rate.
The initial wear size is VB=0.05-0.1mm normally.
2. Steady wear region The micro-roughness is improved,
in this region the wear size is proportional to the cutting time.
The wear rate is relatively constant.
![Page 42: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Tool WearTypical stages of tool wear in normalcutting (Continued….)3. Severe (or Ultimate or catastrophic)
wear: When the wear size increases to a
critical value, the surface roughness of the machined surface decreases, cutting force and temperature increase rapidly, and the wear rate increases.
Flank wear and chipping will increase the friction, so that the total cutting force will increase.
The component surface roughness will be increased, especially when chipping occurs.
Flank wear will also affect the component dimensional accuracy.
![Page 43: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Tool Wear• Notch Wear: Special type of combined
flank and rake face wear which occurs adjacent to the point where the major cutting edge intersects the work surface.
The gashing (or grooving, gouging) at the outer edge of the wear land is an indication of a hard or abrasive skin on the work material
![Page 44: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Tool Wear• Chipping:
Involves removal of relatively large discrete particles of tool material.
• Ultimate Failure: The final result of tool wear is the complete removal
of the cutting point - ultimate failure of the tool. This may come about by temperature rise. An alternative mechanism of ultimate failure is the
mechanical failure (usually a brittle fracture) of a relatively large portion of the cutting tip.
Ultimate failure by melting and plastic flow is most common in carbon and high-speed-steel tools.
Fracture failures are most common in sintered carbide or ceramic tools.
![Page 45: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Tool Wear• Causes of Tool Wear• Hard Particle Wear( Abrasive Wear) Caused by the impurities within the work piece material, such as
carbon, nitride and oxide compounds, as well as the built-up fragments.
This is a mechanical wear, and it is the main cause of the tool wear at low cutting speeds.
• Adhesive Wear Due to the high pressure and temperature, welding occurs between
the fresh surface of the chip and rake face (chip rubbing on the rake face results in a chemically clean surface).
• Diffusion Wear Diffusion results in changes of the tool and work piece chemical
composition.• Chemical Wear Corrosive wear (due to chemical attack of a surface) • Fracture Wear Fracture can be the catastrophic end of the cutting edge. Chipping of brittle surfaces
![Page 46: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Tool Wear• EFFECTS OF THE TOOL WEAR ON
TECHNOLOGICAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES.
Increase the cutting force; Increase the surface roughness; Decrease the dimensional accuracy; Increase the temperature; Vibration; Lower the production efficiency, component
quality; Increase the cost.
![Page 47: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Tool Life• Tool life is the time a tool can be reliably be used for
cutting before it must be discarded/repaired .• Some tools, such as lathe bits are regularly reground
after use .• Assessment of tool life• For R & D purposes, tool life is always assessed or
expressed by span of machining time in minutes, whereas, in industries besides machining time in minutes some other means are also used to assess tool life, depending upon the situation, such as
no. of pieces of work machined total volume of material removed total length of cut.
![Page 48: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Tool Life• Measurement of tool wear• The various methods are :
i) By loss of tool material in volume or weight, in one life time – this method is generally applicable for critical tools like grinding wheels.ii) By grooving and indentation method – in this approximate method wear depth is measured indirectly by the difference in length of the groove or the indentation outside and inside the worn area.iii) Using optical microscope fitted with micrometer – very common and effective method.iv) Using scanning electron microscope (SEM) – used generally, for detailed study; both qualitative and quantitative.v) Talysurf, specially for shallow crater wear.
![Page 49: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Tool Life• Taylor’s tool life equation
– tool life of any tool for any work material is governed mainly by cutting velocity, (VC), feed, (so) and depth of cut (t).
– Cutting velocity affects maximum and depth of cut minimum.
– The usual pattern of growth of cutting tool wear (mainly VB=0.3mm), principle of assessing tool life and its dependence on cutting velocity are schematically shown in Fig .
![Page 50: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

Tool Life
• If the tool lives, T1, T2, T3, T4 etc are plotted against the corresponding cutting velocities, V1, V2, V3, V4 etc as shown in Fig., a smooth curve like a rectangular hyperbola is found to appear.
![Page 52: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Tool Life• When F. W. Taylor plotted the same
figure taking both V and T in log-scale, a more distinct linear relationship appeared as schematically shown in Fig.
• With the slope n and intercept c, Taylor derived the simple equation as
VTn = C
where, n is called, Taylor’s tool life exponent.
The values of both ‘n’ and ‘c’ depend mainly upon the tool-work materials and the cutting environment (cutting fluid application).
The value of C depends also on the limiting value of VB undertaken ( i.e., 0.3 mm, 0.4 mm, 0.6 mm etc.)

Tool Life• Example of use of Taylor’s tool life equation
Problem :• If in turning of a steel rod by a given cutting tool (material
and geometry) at a given machining condition (so and t) under a given environment (cutting fluid application), the tool life decreases from 80 min to 20 min. due to increase in cutting velocity, VC from 60 m/min to 120 m/min., then at what cutting velocity the life of that tool under the same condition and environment will be 40 min.?
• Solution :Assuming Taylor’s tool life equation, VT n = CV1T1
n = V2T2 n= V3T3 n= ................. = CHere, V1 = 60 m/min; T1 = 80 min.,V2 = 120 m/min; T2 = 20 min.V3 = ? (to be determined); T3 = 40 min.Taking, V1T1
n = V2T2 n

Use of Chip Breaker• Need and purpose of chip-breaking
The sharp edged hot continuous chip that comes out at very high speed
becomes dangerous to the operator and the other people working in the vicinity
may impair the finished surface by entangling with the rotating job
creates difficulties in chip disposal.Therefore it is essentially needed to break such continuous chips into small regular pieces for
safety of the working people prevention of damage of the product easy collection and disposal of chips.
Chip breaking is done for improving machinability by reducing the chip-tool contact area, cutting forces and crater wear of the cutting tool..

Machinability
• ‘Machinability’ has been introduced for gradation of work materials w.r.t. machining characteristics.
• “Machinability” can be described in several ways such as:
It is generally applied to the machining properties of work material.
It refers to material (work) response to machining. It is the ability of the work material to be
machined. It indicates how easily and fast a material can be
machined.

Machinability• Attempts were made to measure or quantify
machinability and it was done mostly in terms of
tool life which substantially influences productivity and economy in machining
magnitude of cutting forces which affects power consumption and dimensional accuracy
surface finish which plays role on performance and service life of the product.

Machinability
• Machinability rating (MR):
The relative machining response of the work materials compared to that of a standard metal was tried to be evaluated quantitatively only based on tool life (VB* = 0.33 mm)

Cutting Tool MaterialsHistory of cutting tool materials
• Cutting tool used during the industrial revolution in 1800 A.D
• First cutting tool was cast using crucible method (1740) and slight hardened by H.T.
• 1868: R. Mushet found by adding Tungsten we can increase hardness and tool life ( Air Quenching)
![Page 67: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Cutting Tool MaterialsHistory of cutting tool materials• F.W.Taylor in Pennsylvania did the most basic
research in metal cutting between 1880-1905– Invented high speed steel (better H.T. process)– Better alloy
• Tungsten Carbide was first synthesized in 1890.• Took 3 decades before we got Cemented
carbide• First used in Germany • Sintering technology was invented
![Page 68: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Cutting Tool Materials
• Selection of cutting tool materials is very important
• What properties should cutting tools have– Hardness at elevated temperatures– Toughness so that impact forces on the tool
can be taken– Wear resistance– Chemical stability
![Page 69: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Cutting Tool MaterialsTool Materials • 1.Carbon and medium-alloy steels (1880): Oldest tool
material, rarely used today. Poor hot hardness, need to be used in low cutting speed.
• 2. High speed steels (1900): Have good wear resistance, Tough (high resistance to failure), Low hot hardness (cutting speed cannot be high). Two basic types; T-type: Tungsten(tungsten and as alloying elements,
chromium, vanadium, cobalt), M-type: Molybdenum(tungsten and molybdenum,
chromium, vanadium, cobalt)
![Page 70: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Cutting Tool Materials• 3. Cast cobalt alloys: (1915), Good wear resistance because of its hardness at high
temperatures Not as tough as HSS, not used in interrupted cutting
operations Capable heavy roughing cuts at speeds higher then HSS
• 4. Carbides(1930): (Cemented or sintered carbides); High hot hardness, allows high cutting speeds High strength -Tungsten Carbide (WC) (cutting steel, cast iron, non
ferrous materials) (replaced HSS cutting tools) Titanium Carbide (TiC) (higher wear resistance than WC,
but is not is tough)(machining of hard materials)
![Page 71: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Cutting Tool Materials• 5. Alumina based ceramics: Ceramic tools. • Very high wear resistance, and hot hardness • Chemically more stable than HSS and carbides• Used in high speed turning of cast iron and steel.• Toughness is not good enough. (uninterrupted
operations)• 6. Coated tools (1960):• Coatings have unique properties • Lower friction• Higher resistance to wear• Act as a diffusion barries• Higher hot hardness
![Page 72: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Cutting Tool Materials7. Cubic boron nitride: Hardest next to diamond, but very
expensive. It has good shock resistance and wear resistance. Good cutting edge strength.
8. Silicon nitride (SiN) Ceramics: Good thermal shock resistance. Not suitable for steel machining.
9. Diamond: Hardest tool material, used in high speed machining of non-ferrous metals and abrasive non-metals. Other metals are not practical, because of chemical affinity between metals and carbon. It has low friction, high wear resistance and used for good surface and accurate dimensions. Prefered in finishing cuts. It is brittle.

Heat Treatment of Steel
• Treatments induce phase transformations that influence mechanical properties.
• Depend on:- alloy composition and microstructure- degree of prior cold work- rates of heating and cooling during heat treatment
![Page 79: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Heat Treatment of Tool Steel
Martensite• When austenite is cooled rapidly and fcc structure
transformed to bcc structure.• Does not have many slip systems, thus extremely hard
and brittle, low toughness and limited usage.
Tempered martensite• Tempering reduces martensite’s hardness and improves
toughness.• The bcc is heated to an intermediate temperature which
consists of bcc alpha ferrite and small cementite.
![Page 80: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Heat Treatment of Steel• Annealing is the restoration of a cold/heat-
treated part to its original properties• Increase ductility and reduce hardness and
strength.• Also applies to thermal treatment of glasses and
weldments.• Annealing process:
1.Heating
2.Holding it at that temperature
3.Cooling it slowly
![Page 81: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Heat Treatment of Steel
Process annealing• Restore workpiece ductility.• If the temperature is high, grain growth may
result adverse effects on the formability of annealed parts.
Stress-relief annealing• Residual stresses may have been induced
during phase transformations.• Stress relieving is allowing of slow cooling, such
as in still air.
![Page 82: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Heat Treatment of Steel
• The steel is heated to a specific temperature and cooled at a prescribed rate.
• Use to reduce brittleness and residual stresses, increase ductility and toughness.
• In austempering, heated steel is quenched rapidly to avoid formation of ferrite/pearlite.
• Austempering is used to:
a)reduce cracking and distortion during quenching
b)improve ductility and toughness
![Page 83: Mechanics-of-Metal-Cutting.ppt](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/55cf938a550346f57b9dc4ad/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
Heat Treatment of Tool Steel
• Annealing– Full annealing– Normalising (faster rate of cooling)– Recovery annealing (longer holding time, slower rate
of cooling,)– Stress relieving (lower temperature)
• Martensite formation in steel– Austenitizing (conversion to austenite)– Quenching (control cooling rate– Tempering (reduce brittleness)
