  • Developing new materials and tool geometry for machining special aluminium alloys on automated turning centers [Elektronski vir]
    Irgolič, Tomaž ; Čuš, Franc, 1953-
    Today's demands for high end materials are very high. They are used almost everywhere where weight reduction and environmental sustainability are required. Weight reduction is very important for ... lowering the cost for raw materials. The environmental aspect of this action is to make, produce and cast a material without to health hazardous materials. Aluminium usually consists of pure Al and some other elements from which the most health hazardous is lead (Pb). On the other hand, lead is also the main ingredient which has the biggest effect on the machinability of aluminium alloys % it greatly improves the formation of short chips and in doing so, it enables better surface finish. This research focuses on testing different aluminium alloys and different tool geometries - to determinate the best option to replace an aluminium alloy with a high concentration of lead with an alloy with low concentration or preferably no lead as a main ingredient and to determine which tool geometry is best suited for machining such an alloy on automated turning centers.
