Towards Dry Machining of Titanium-Based Alloys: A New Approach Using an Oxygen-Free Environment

Towards Dry Machining of Titanium-Based Alloys: A New Approach Using an Oxygen-Free Environment

In the current study, the potential of dry machining of the titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V with uncoated tungsten carbide solid endmills was explored. It is demonstrated that tribo-oxidation is the dominant wear mechanism, which can be suppressed by milling in an extreme high vacuum adequate (XHV) environ...
