Preparation and carrying out of turning operations

• The initial billet should be subjected to aging: the structure of aluminum cast alloys becomes finely dispersed, and more stable from possible changes in the temperature of the billet during turning. Exceptions are silumin alloys;
• The correct selection of the feed determines the quality of turning: at high feed rates and depths of cutting the cutter, a long spilling chip is formed in the material, which interferes with the precise movement of the tool;
• Turning tools and appliances must have surfaces that allow the chips to be dropped or cut into smaller pieces.

Aluminum and most of its alloys are plastic materials, but a number of alloys, for example, AL2, are more suitable for processing on lathes, using tools made of high-speed steels. Supplier Avlob offers to buy aluminum at a bargain price. The price is the best in this segment of rental.

Choice of turning modes

To improve turning, the following technological methods are used:

• Special chip flutes are provided, the profile of which corresponds to the best conditions for chip removal;
• Turning aluminum is often accompanied by a build-up — the local surfacing of the processed metal on the cutting edge in the turning zone. As a result, blunting of the cutting wedge occurs, which is accompanied by an increase in the load on the tool. To get rid of such a defect, you can improve the smoothness of the front surface of the tool, or correcting the values of the front and rear corners of the cutting wedge tool;
• With increased hardness, the defectiveness of turning is reduced. Therefore, in particular, the turning of duralumin is much more common than the turning of pure aluminum.

When turning alloys with increased viscosity (for example, AMg), it is necessary to provide continuous feeding of cutting fluids to the cutting zone. It is also effective to cool the instrument by the oil mist method.
