Modeling and Experimental Investigations of the Surface Layer Temperature of Titanium Alloys during AEDG Processing

Article Preview

Abstract:

Observing the latest manufacturing processes, the following tendencies can be noted: the gain of the energetic efficiency and shortening of the processing time with parallel preservation of the dimensions tolerance, shape tolerance and outer layer quality of the processed workpiece. Also the possibilities of gaining efficiency by rising criteria for process parameters are limited. It is mainly observed in the processing of hard machinable materials like titanium alloys or sintered carbides. Problems related to poor machinability were revealed during the final manufacturing processes using abrasive grinding [1,2]. In this work the results which have been presented are related to the influence by selected electrical parameters of the Abrasive Electrodischarge Grinding (AEDG) on the surface layer temperature of machined samples, in comparison to conventional grinding. Also the change in temperature during the AEDG has been depicted. The basis of this work is similar to the investigations of the deep grinding of surfaces of the titanium alloy Ti6Al4V using CBN and a diamond grinding wheel. For the comparative evaluation of the conventional grinding and AEDG, measurements of the specific grinding energy, energy of the spark discharge and internal stresses in the surface layer have been used.
