초경공구를 사용한 Ti-6Al-4V 타이타늄 합금의 절삭가공시 공구마멸과 절삭특성에 관한 연구

A Study on the Tool Wear and Cutting Characteristics in the Machining of Ti-6Al-4V using Tungsten Carbide Tool

The machinability of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy and tool wear behavior when machining Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy was studied to understand the machining characteristics. this material is one of the strong candidate materials present and future aerospace or medical applications. Nowadays their usage has already been broaden to everyday's commercial applications such as golf club heads, finger rings and many decorative items. Anticipating the general use of this material and development of the titanium alloys in domestic facilities, the review and the study of the machining parameters for those alloys are deemed necessary. this study is concentrated to the machining parameters of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy due to their dominant position in the production of titanium alloys.
