Abstract:
A throwaway insert and a cutting tool enable a high speed cutting operation for a metallic material having great ductility such as aluminum and obtaining a vertical wall with a high quality machined surface while improving chip control. The throwaway insert comprises a major cutting edge including a tapered cutting edge connected to a cutting edge of a nose portion, and a curved cutting edge connected to an end of the tapered cutting edge at a connection point. The curved cutting edge is formed so as to extend along an imaginary cylindrical surface whose center axis coincides with the axis of rotation of a tool main body, and tapered cutting edge is formed so as to gradually curve from the imaginary cylindrical surface toward the inside of the imaginary cylindrical surface as the distance from the curved cutting edge increases, and the distance from the nose portion decreases. The throwaway insert is attached to the tool main body in which the surface of the distal end thereof is machined so that surface roughness thereof is less than 3.2 μm when indicated by the Ry roughness.
Abstract:
A coating is provided having a first metal or non-metal nitride layer and a second metal or non-metal nitride layer wherein the first and second nitride layers are sufficiently resistant to interdiffusion to maintain respective individual layer structure and strength at an elevated operating temperature when a coating contact surface is in sliding contact with another material and wherein one of the first layer or second layer includes a component that is oxidizable at the contact surface to form a friction-reducing lubricous oxide material at the contact surface.

Abstract:
A solid-lubricated metal cutter and processing method relates to the technical field of metal cutters. A surface texture morphology is worked out on a metal cutter, a solid lubricant is filled into the surface texture morphology, and a convex dam is arranged on the cutter surface on which surface texture morphology is located at a chip flow side. The surface texture morphology has micro-pit and micro-boss features, and can exert antifriction effect of a solid lubricant and anti-adhesion effect of micro-protrusions. The convex dam is arranged at an end of the micro-texture region away from the cutting blade, so that a part of the solid lubricant flows back to the texture region and thereby the utilization efficiency and retentiveness of the solid lubricant are improved.

A throwaway insert and a cutting tool enable a high speed cutting operation for a metallic material having great ductility such as aluminum and obtaining a vertical wall with a high quality machined surface while improving chin control. The throwaway insert comprises a major cutting edge including a tapered cutting edge connected to a cutting edge of a nose portion, and a curved cutting edge connected to an end of the tapered cutting edge at a connection point. The curved cutting edge is formed so as to extend along an imaginary cylindrical surface whose center axis coincides with the axis of rotation of a tool main body, and tapered cutting edge is formed so as to gradually curve from the imaginary cylindrical surface toward the inside of the imaginary cylindrical surface as the distance from the curved cutting edge increases, and the distance from the nose portion decreases. The throwaway insert is attached to the tool main body in which the surface of the distal end thereof is machined so that surface roughness thereof is less than 3.2 nullm when indicated by the Ry roughness.

A screw connection to be undone without problems and without disproportionate application of force after long-term use in cutting under extreme usage conditions with dirt, extreme heat, moisture, oxidation and alternating loads provides that the screws have a smooth surface due to coating at least in the area of the thread of the screws, that PTFE particles, preferably have a particle size between 100 nm and 300 nm, are continued in the coating, and the screw connection of the two thread partners are lubricated using small amounts of a heat-resistant grease having ceramic powder particles.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a clamping system as a point of separation inside a tool or workpiece support system, or as an interface between a tool or workpiece support system and a machine tool for the detachable, non-positive connection of two clamping system parts. According to the present invention, it is proposed to coat at least one joining surface of a joining surface pairing between components of the clamping system parts that are to be connected in non-positive fashion with a layer of solid lubricant applied in an abrasion-resistant manner. On the one hand, this coating with solid lubricant enables significant improvement in the sliding characteristics of the joining surfaces, subjected to friction, of the components of the clamping system to be connected with one another. On the other hand, the joining surfaces, which are in addition subjected to a high surface pressure, exhibit improved corrosion characteristics. These characteristics ensure the required positional accuracy of the two clamping system parts, even in the case of tool or workpiece support systems rotating at high speed.
