Abstract
The cutting-edge temperature on the flank face in dry turn-milling of medium carbon steel (ISO C45) is measured using a two-color pyrometer with an optical fiber. In turn-milling, undeformed chip geometry is complex due to its dependence on several factors including diameter of the cutting tool, number of tooth, diameter of the workpiece, tool-work revolution speed ratio, depth of cut, feed per tooth, tool axis offset, and the cutting distance. In this study, the undeformed chip is analyzed and visualized by the 3D-CAD system, and the effects of the cutting parameters in turn-milling, especially relative cutting speed and tool axis offset on tool flank temperature, are investigated. It is interesting that the relative cutting speed does not significantly affect the tool flank temperature, where it increases by approximately 20 °C at most when relative cutting speed increases from 124 m/min to 217 m/min. In addition, tool flank temperature varies by approximately 40 °C when the tool axis offset is changed from 0 mm to 9.2 mm due to the change in the undeformed chip geometry.
