Effect of Tool Passivation Methods on Cutting Performance of Cemented Carbide Milling Cutter for Titanium Alloy Machining
With the continuous development of cutting technology,tool edge passivation technology has been attracted more attention.In order to study the effect of different tool edge passivation methods on the milling performance of TC4 tita-nium alloy,the single factor test method is used to analyze the side milling test of TC4 titanium alloy.The experimental re-sults show that the tool edge passivation method can reduce the cutting force and cutting temperature during the cutting process,and improve the surface quality of the workpiece.Compared with rotary abrasive flow passivation method,vertical rotary passivation method has greater cutting force and cutting temperature.The rotary abrasive flow passivation method can better remove the small defects at the cutting edge,improve the uniformity of the cutting edge and the quality of the ma-chined surface.Considering the actual production needs,the rotary abrasive flow passivation method can better improve the milling performance of TC4 titanium alloy.
