Analytical model of modified diamond tools temperature by focused ion beam in dry diamond turning

Abstract

The contact process between the chip and the rake face is directly affected by the temperature of the rake face, and then tool wear and machining quality is indirectly influenced by it. In this study, a temperature prediction model for the rake face of modified diamond tools during dry turning of the 6061 aluminum alloy was established based on the moving heat source method. The shear heat source, rake face chip friction heat source, cutting edge-workpiece ploughing effect heat source, cutting edge workpiece roll burnishing heat source, and flank face workpiece elastic recovery heat source were considered by this model during the dry diamond turning, simultaneously considering the non-uniformity of heat source intensity and heat distribution ratio, as well as the influence of ion implantation on the temperature of the tool rake face. The experimental results indicate that this model successfully predicts the temperature of the modified tool rake face, and it is found that an increase in dose will promote a decrease in the temperature of the rake face. Theoretical analysis reveals that modified cutting tools have the characteristic of reducing the temperature of the rake face, revealing the essence of the influence of “modification” on the temperature of the rake face from the perspective of the cutting mechanism, and providing a theoretical basis for optimizing modification parameters.
