Abstract

Magnesium alloys are an important group of materials that are used in many industries, primarily due to their low weight. Constantly increasing quality requirements make it necessary to improve the accuracy of manufactured products. In this study, the precision milling process for AZ91D and AZ31B magnesium alloys was investigated, and the results obtained with uncoated and TiB2-coated end mills were compared. The impact of variable cutting parameters was also investigated. Specifically, the study focused on the dimensional accuracy of the machined parts. The results showed that even though the dimensional accuracy obtained in milling both magnesium alloys was comparable, it was higher in the case of the AZ31B alloy by up to 22%. The study also demonstrated that the use of the TiB2 coating did not have the desired effect and that higher dimensional accuracy up to 27% was obtained with the uncoated tool.
