Machining Inconel With Ceramic

When machining inconel 751 with ceramic tools lima et al.

Machining inconel with ceramic.

Ceramic machining applications ceramic grades can be applied in a broad range of applications and materials. Most often in high speed turning. Why ceramic tooling works in nickel based alloys. This webinar will discuss.

How to use ceramic tooling. When inconel is work hardened tooling can wear out as heat and pressure builds. This makes inconel even harder to work causing more stress to tooling. Maybe that s 3 but i m going to call it one.

What is inconel machining. For machining blisks emag specialists developed a pecm system with 11 machining stations that drill contour radius machine and polish workpieces. They also found that attrition and chippings were the dominant wear mechanism and with less importance abrasion and diffusion. High tensile inconel material is machined at a feed rate of 5mm per minute achieving tolerances between 0 1mm and 0 3mm.

Carefully inspecting tooling is critical for maximizing quality in inconel machining. Modular pecm machines can be tailored to suit individual component. 2017 encountered notch at the end of the depth of cut as the prevailing wear mode when whisker reinforced ceramic tools were used. Machine rigidity fixture rigidity and tooling rigidity.

At superior machining we specialize in inconel machining and have developed and mastered an approach which will create your product with high quality consistency and on a timely basis. Pushing the envelope with inconel machining. Cold drawing metal hardens the work surface. The primary application for grade cc6060 sialon is milling inconel 718 engine castings and oil drilling equipment in both cases due to the high metal removal rates.

We will be discussing what it takes to successfully use solid ceramic tools in your inconel machining processes the tips and tricks to implementing this tooling and the do s and don ts of being productive with it. Top 7 tips on machining inconel hastelloy monel and other nickel alloys. With an ingersoll ceramic insert some creative toolpath programming extra attention to heat management and a willingness to burn through inserts to maximize throughput the busy ball turning operation has quadrupled throughput. We still run older mitsui seiki horizontal mills and older mori seiki lathes because they are so rigid.
