O material, metálico ferro fundido cinzento, é muito utilizado industrialmente, principalmente na área automobilística. Usinagem com alta velocidade tem sido uma tendência atual para aumentar a produtividade, com a possibilidade de se ober ótima qualidade superficial, possivelmente eliminando processos subseqüentes. Aliado à questão de qualidade ambiental, as operações de usinagem têm-se voltado para usinagem a seco ou com mínima quantidade de lubrificante (MQL - minimal quantity of lubricant). Este trabalho estuda o torneamento com alta velocdidade de ferro fundido cinzento GG25 através de usinagem a seco e com MQL. Utiliza-se, em operação de faceamento, ferramenta de cerâmica mista (Al2O3+ TiC) e metal duro com cobertura (TiCN/Al2O3/TiN), usando velocidades de corte muito acima dos valores tradicionais. Comparativamente o desgaste é significativamente menor na cerâmica. O tipo de desgaste predominante é o desgaste de flanco. Os principais mecanismos de desgaste encontrados são abrasão mecânica e delaminação. O aumento do avanço diminui o desgaste de flanco. Existe uma razão entre a vazão de óleo e a vazão de ar na lubrificação MQL que viabiliza sua aplicacão com relação ao desgaste de flanco. Em todas as condições testadas, o sistema MQL mostra ser capaz de reduzir a rugosidade superficial Ra. / The gray cast iron material is very used industrially, mainly in the automotive industry. High speed machining is the current tendency to increase the productivity, with the possibility of obtaining good surface quality, possibly eliminating subsequent operations. Due to regulations on the subject of environrnental quality, the machining operations have been turned to dry machining or minimal quantity of lubricant (MQL). This work studies the turning process at high speed of gray cast iron GG25 with dry machining and MQL techniques. The operation uses face turning with coated carbide (TiCN/Al2O3/TiN) and mixed alumina ceramic (Al203+ TiC) with cutting speeds much higher than the traditional recommended values. Comparatively, the wear is significantly smaller in the mixed alumina ceramic tools. The predominant type of wear is the flank wear. The main wear mechanisms are mechanical abrasion and delamination. The increase of feed values shows some reduction on the flank wear. It seems to exist an ideal ratio of oil to air in the MQL system, which makes possible its application for reducing flank wear on the tools. In all conditions tested, the MQL system shows to be able to reduce surface roughness (Ra).

Lors de l'usinage des alliages métalliques, les outils de coupe sont soumis à un chargement thermomécanique intense conduisant à une réduction considérable de leur durée de vie. L'utilisation d'outils revêtus s'avère alors bénéfique, en particulier lors de l'usinage à sec des aciers inoxydables considérés comme difficiles à usiner. Ce travail de thèse porte sur l'effet des revêtements en abordant les aspects de modélisation, de simulation numérique et expérimentaux de l'usinage à sec, avec des outils à géométries complexes. Des essais de chariotage ont été réalisés sur l'acier AISI 304L avec des outils revêtus et non revêtus. Une attention particulière a été apportée à la température, aux efforts et à la rugosité. Une large gamme de conditions de coupe a été considérée pour une compréhension avancée des phénomènes physiques mis en jeu. Cela a permis l'identification des conditions de coupe optimales pour le couple outil/pièce considéré, et la mise en évidence de l'importance des revêtements lors de l'usinage à sec des aciers inoxydables. Par ailleurs, une modélisation hybride analytique/numérique a été développée et mise en oeuvre. Fondée sur la direction d'écoulement du copeau, elle permet de déduire les efforts 3D à partir d'une simulation numérique 2D de l'usinage. Une procédure d'extraction de profils réels de l'outil à été introduite en utilisant un système de numérisation 3D Breuckmann. Cette procédure permet la prise en compte de la géométrie réelle de l'outil lors des simulations numériques. Enfin, la comparaison des résultats numériques et expérimentaux a permis la validation de la modélisation proposée / When machining metal alloys, cutting tools are subjected to intense thermomechanical loading, which can lead to a significant reduction of their lifetime. The use of coated tools is then beneficial, in particular during dry machining of stainless steels which are considered as difficult to cut materials. This phD thesis is focused on the effect of coatings addressing aspects of modeling, simulation and experimental tests using tools with complex geometries. Experimental tests under dry turning configuration were performed on an AISI 304L stainless steel with coated and uncoated tools. Particular attention was paid to the temperature evolution, cutting forces and roughness. A wide range of cutting conditions was considered for an advanced understanding of the physical phenomena involved in machining. Experimental results allowed the identification of optimum cutting conditions for the considered tool/workpiece couple and highlighted the importance of coatings in dry machining of stainless steels. In addition, a hybrid analytical/numerical modeling was developed and implemented in DEFORM code. Based on the chip flow direction, 3D forces can be deduced from a 2D numerical simulation of machining. An extraction procedure of real profiles of the tool was introduced using a 3D scanning Breuckmann system. This procedure allows taking into account the real geometry of the tool in numerical simulations. Finally, the comparison between numerical and experimental results allowed the validation of the proposed model
