Previous issue date: 2011-07-29 / This work presents the results, analyses and conclusions about a study carried out with
objective of minimizing the thermal cracks formation on cemented carbide inserts during face
milling.
The main focus of investigation was based on the observation that milling process is
an interrupted machining process, which imposes cyclic thermal loads to the cutting tool,
causing frequent stresses changes in its superficial and sub-superficial layers. These
characteristics cause the formation of perpendicular cracks from cutting edge which aid the
cutting tool wear, reducing its life.
Several works on this subject emphasizing the thermal cyclic behavior imposed by the
milling process as the main responsible for thermal cracks formation have been published. In
these cases, the phenomenon appears as a consequence of the difference in temperature
experienced by the cutting tool with each rotation of the cutter, usually defined as the
difference between the temperatures in the cutting tool wedge at the end of the cutting and
idle periods (T factor).
Thus, a technique to minimize this cyclic behavior with objective of transforming the
milling in an almost-continuous process in terms of temperature was proposed. In this case,
a hot air stream was applied into the idle period, during the machining process. This
procedure aimed to minimize the T factor. This technique was applied using three values of
temperature from the hot air stream (100, 350 e 580 oC) with no cutting fluid (dry condition)
and with cutting fluid mist (wet condition) using the hot air stream at 580oC. Besides, trials at
room temperature were carried out. Afterwards the inserts were analyzed using a scanning
electron microscope, where the quantity of thermal cracks generated in each condition, the
wear and others damages was analyzed.
In a general way, it was found that the heating of the idle period was
positive for reducing the number of thermal cracks during face milling
with cemented carbide inserts. Further, the cutting fluid mist application was effective in
reducing the wear of the cutting tools. / Este trabalho apresenta os resultados, an?lises e conclus?es de um estudo realizado
com objetivo de minimizar o processo de forma??o e evolu??o de trincas de origem t?rmica
em insertos de metal duro usados no fresamento frontal.
O foco principal da pesquisa baseou-se na observa??o de que, por ser um processo de
corte interrompido, o fresamento imp?e um carregamento t?rmico c?clico ? ferramenta de
corte, conduzindo a frequentes varia??es de tens?es nas camadas superficial e sub-superficial
de seu gume cortante. Tal caracter?stica leva ? forma??o de trincas no substrato,
perpendiculares a aresta de corte, as quais auxiliam na acelera??o do desgaste e no fim de vida
da ferramenta.
Muitos trabalhos foram publicados sobre o assunto enfatizando a ciclagem t?rmica
imposta pelo processo de fresamento como a principal causa da forma??o das trincas
t?rmicas. Neste caso, o fen?meno surge como conseq??ncia da diferen?a de temperatura
sofrida pela ferramenta de corte a cada giro da fresa, normalmente definida pela diferen?a
entre as temperaturas no gume cortante imediatamente ao final das fases ativa e inativa (fator
T).
Assim, prop?s-se neste trabalho uma t?cnica que visa amenizar esta ciclagem t?rmica
caracter?stica, por aproximar o fresamento frontal de um processo quase cont?nuo do ponto de
vista t?rmico. Neste caso, um jato de ar quente foi aplicado na fase inativa da fresa durante
todo o processo de usinagem, com objetivo de minimizar o fator T. Esta t?cnica foi aplicada
usando tr?s valores de temperatura do jato de ar, 100, 350 e 580 ?C na condi??o a seco e
580?C na condi??o com fluido de corte aplicado por n?voa. Al?m disso, tamb?m foram
realizados ensaios a temperatura ambiente. Ao final dos ensaios de fresamento, os insertos
foram conduzidos a um microsc?pio eletr?nico de varredura, onde a quantidade de trincas
t?rmicas geradas em cada condi??o, o desgaste e demais avarias foram analisadas.
De maneira geral, observou-se que o aquecimento da fase inativa forneceu
resultados positivos na redu??o da quantidade de trincas t?rmicas no
fresamento frontal com insertos de metal duro. Al?m disso, a aplica??o de
fluido de corte por n?voa foi eficaz na diminui??o do desgaste das
ferramentas de corte ensaiadas.
