Investigation of the turning process of the TC21 titanium alloy: Experimental analysis and 3D simulation

Lei Pei et al.

Summary: Titanium alloy TC21, with higher strength and lower heat conductivity, is difficult to cut and requires in-depth investigation of the cutting mechanism. Turning experiments were conducted to observe the cutting phenomenon and analyze the influence of important turning parameters on cutting force and chip morphology. A 3D finite element model was established to simulate cutting force, chip formation, and temperature distribution, which were compared with experimental results to validate the findings.

Development and analysis of tool wear and energy consumption maps for turning of titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V)

Muhammad Younas et al.

Summary: Machine tools are the main source of electric power consumption in industrial operations. In order to mitigate production costs, energy-efficient and cleaner production methods are preferred in manufacturing. This research focuses on evaluating tool wear rate and specific cutting energy at varying cutting conditions for Titanium alloys, aiming to develop tool wear and energy maps for monitoring wear and energy data. The results suggest that recommended cutting conditions for machining Ti-6Al4V alloy can enhance tool life, reduce energy consumption, and increase material removal rate.
