Abstract
The feasibility study of the face-milling performance of hard-facing weld metal on JIS-S50C carbon steel was investigated on microstructure, chip characteristics, wear properties, and surface roughness. Discontinuous chips were found in all machining conditions. No buffering weld metal (No buffering layer, NBL) produces longer and thicker chips than that of the buffering weld metal (Buffering layer, BL). The flank wear of the cutting tool edge increases with the cutting length of the test specimen. The maximum wear of 850 mm was found in a wet condition of the NBL weld metal which is about 4 times higher than that of the base metal. High hardness value of the NBL weld metal produces a higher flank wear of the cutting tool edge than that of the BL weld metal. After comparing the wear of the cutting tool edge in wet and dry conditions, it was found that the dry condition exhibits a smaller flank wear than that of the wet condition. In the wet condition, more amount of coolant oil droplets cannot penetrate into the chip-tool interface and then provides an insufficient amount of lubricant in order to decrease the cutting temperature. Therefore wet condition produces severe wear of the cutting.
