Features of grinding titanium alloys
In selecting the technological parameters of the grinding process, the difference in the chemical activity of titanium at ordinary (room) and elevated temperatures should be taken into account. At a localized point of contact of the grinding wheel with the surface of the ground workpiece, titanium can chemically interact with the material of the grinding wheel.
To prevent such phenomena, the following technological methods are used:
Effective use of cutting fluids. They are oil-water emulsions, which, although improves the quality of grinding, but reduces the operational durability of the tool (grinding bands or circles). The solution is to use corrosion inhibitors in the vapor phase of the nitrite type. Particularly good results are achieved with belt grinding of titanium with a tool of alumina. The cooling liquid should be continuously filtered to remove fine solids. Replacing the coolant should be done more often than when grinding the steels;
Correcting the speed of movement of the grinding belt or wheel. For grinding titanium and its alloys it is recommended to apply reduced speeds (from 35 to 50% of the commonly used ones).
Supplier — AvekGlob company — offers at affordable prices from the manufacturer various products made using tape grinding methods, from titanium alloys and stainless steels. The supplier guarantees the timely delivery of products to any address specified by the consumer.
Selection of grinding tools and process parameters
To ensure optimum surface quality and minimum wear, silicon carbide grinding belts can not be used at travel speeds of more than 1200.1800 m / min, otherwise intense sparking may occur which can cause a fire. The workpiece must be covered with coolant to reduce sparking. When using grinding tapes made of glass fiber A60, the speed should not exceed 450… 600 m / min. With the increase in the hardness of the tool material used in belt grinding, the speed of movement must be proportionally reduced.
Recommended materials of abrasive tapes are silicon carbide (for grinding with subsequent cutting) and aluminum oxide for cylindrical and surface grinding.
To minimize residual surface stresses, the recommended feed rates are from 0.025 mm to 0.05 mm per pass. Then the feed is gradually reduced.
As a coolant for intensive grinding, a standard grinding oil is used more often, and in other cases, nitrite-based fluids are used.
Supplier — AvekGlob Company — offers to purchase various designs made with the use of belt grinding technology, made of titanium alloys and stainless steel. Products can be bought at a price formed on the basis of European and world standards of production. Implementation is possible in bulk and retail, for regular customers, a flexible system of discounts operates.
