Solid lubricants offer lubrication potential under high mechanical loads. However, most solid lubricants only work for limited temperatures and the supply into the contact zones in cutting provides a general challenge. Quasicrystals represent an exceptional class of materials and have friction-reducing properties due to their atomic structure. However, their application has so far mainly been investigated for coatings or as tribologically effective reinforcement in composite materials. Nevertheless, their use as a solid-state additive remains largely unexplored. This paper presents the first utilisation of quasicrystals as a solid additive for cooling lubricants in machining. In fundamental investigations, it was initially determined that the addition of quasicrystals to an oil-water emulsion resulted in a significant increase in lubrication during cutting, meaning that the process forces could be reduced to a greater extent than in the case of MQL-oil. Based on these findings, a micromilling process was selected as an application example. In these investigations, it was found that tool wear could be reduced by >60 % by adding the quasicrystals. In total, the potential of quasicrystals as solid lubricant for machining could be proved.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing Processes","volume":"143 ","pages":"Pages 86-95"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143808434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accurate compensation relies on thermal error prediction and monitoring. However, existing thermal error models are limited in accuracy and robustness due to the loss of temperature information and variations in temperature-sensitive points. Moreover, the thermal error of the rotary worktable has a coupled relationship between position and temperature, posing challenges in thermal error modeling. To tackle the issues, a multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) thermal error model with three-dimensional spatiotemporal temperature information (3DSTI) is developed for the gear grinding machine rotary worktable. Firstly, the temperature field mechanism model is established by Galerkin-based Green's function method after proposed structural simplification and thermal parameter equivalence. Combining the temperature field mechanism model, parallel Aquila optimizer, and measured data, a temperature field dynamic adjustment method is proposed. Secondly, the MDOF thermal error measurement method is proposed using the double ball bar. The MDOF thermal error is decomposed into multiple temperature-dependent amplitudes, thereby simplifying the thermal error modeling process. Thirdly, a series of continuous-time 3DSTIs are constructed by integrating the temperature field mechanism model with the measured temperature. The convolutional block attention module-gate recurrent unit extracts spatiotemporal temperature features from 3DSTI to establish the thermal error model. Finally, the experiments and simulations are conducted to validate the proposed method. The results indicate that the proposed method is proficient in accurately predicting thermal errors.

Especially in times of increasing energy costs as well as prices for certain elements, conventional heat treatments as well as alloying routes can be problematic. In this context, purely mechanical methods are capable of providing significant strengthening of already established alloys. Belonging to these methods and especially suitable for sheet metals, is the so-called Accumulative Roll Bonding (ARB) process. It enables the cumulation of the forming degree within the material and can lead to the evolution of an ultrafine grain sized microstructure. However, it severely lacks in its reproducibility and efficiency due to many influencing factors in the process chain. For this, the introduced work focuses on the least investigated step in the process chain, the surface treatment. For this, a novel and automated brushing method is analyzed in terms of its reproducibility as well as feasibility within ARB. Through roughness and topography measurements, it is shown that the force as well as the dwell time of the active brushing contact has a high influence on the resulting surface condition. Additionally, the run-in behavior and the deflection of the brush must be taken into account in order to generate a homogeneous surface finish. By selecting a suitable combination of parameters within the novel surface treatment method, a significant improvement regarding the scattering of the bonding strength is proven. Whereas the conventional manual surface treatment leads to fluctuations of the bonding strength of around 35 %, the newly introduced method displays a clearly reduced deviation of only 1.6 %. This enables to derivate cause-effect relationships between the input parameters regarding brushing, the resulting surface condition and the resulting bonding properties of ARB sheets.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing Processes","volume":"143 ","pages":"Pages 30-36"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143783566","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A mass-spring vibration model for the shim-insert system is established to analyze the effect of load rate on the inertial forces within the system. Finite element analysis is conducted to explore the influence of impact load rate on the stress distribution at the tool tip for four different shim stiffness levels. Additionally, intermittent cutting experiments using four different stiffness shims are performed to study the impact of load rate on cutting forces, vibration acceleration, and insert fracture under different cutting speeds (load rates). The results show that as the impact load rate increases, the protective effect of weak stiffness shims on the inserts gradually weakens. At low impact load rates, the shim reaction force dominates, and the inertial force of the insert can be neglected. As the load rate increases, the inertial force of the insert increases and becomes dominant, while the shim reaction force gradually diminishes. As the cutting speed increases (from 500 r/min to 900 r/min), the weak stiffness shim's ability to reduce cutting force weakens (from 13.44 % to 4.17 %), the inhibition of vibration acceleration amplitude decreases (from 40.47 % to 9.57 %), and the reduction in rake face damage diminishes (from 75 % to 11 %).
