Analysis of Micro Burr Formation in Austenitic Stainless Steel X5CrNi18-10

This paper presents the results on the analysis of micro-burr formation for slot milling of austenitic stainless steel X5CrNi18-10. Two-fluted submicron grain cemented carbide tools with a diameter of d = 0.5 mm were used. Applying cutting speeds from v(c) = 100 m/min to v(c) = 200 m/min and feeds per tooth from f(z) = 6 mu m to f(z) = 8 mu m the influence of these parameters on the burr formation was investigated. Additionally the effect of the lubrication method - minimum quantity lubrication, flood lubrication and bath lubrication - on the burr formation was analysed. (c) 2012 The Authors.
