Özet

Ti6Al4V alloy has increasing usage areas in engineering materials due to its high corrosion and heat resistance, good toughness and strength resistance, high operating temperature, low weight ratio, long service life, and competitiveness with composite materials. This situation also highlights the studies on their production and shaping. However, the low thermal conductivity, high chemical reactivity, low modulus of elasticity, and high strength of the Ti6Al4V alloy cause high temperatures to occur between the cutting tool and the workpiece. Problems such as surface integrity and cutting tool wear during machining make it necessary to work in this area. In this study, the effects of cutting speed and cooling environment on chip morphology, insert wear, and surface roughness in milling of Ti6Al4V alloy were investigated. As cutting parameters; Cutting speeds of 50 m/min and 150 m/min, a feed rate of 0.25 mm/rev and a depth of cut of 0.4 mm were used. The milling process; was made in a dry and cool environment using an APXT-1003-PDR milling insert. As a result of the experimental studies, it was determined that the surface roughness value decreased with the increase of the cutting speed, and the surface properties improved with the transition of the cutting medium from dry to liquid. With the cutting fluid, the negative effects caused by friction were eliminated and the wear of the cutting tool decreased with increasing cutting speed. It has been determined that the cutting speed has a more decisive effect on the chip form than the cutting environment.
