Characterization chip formation of commercial steel materials at low speed cylindrical grinding processes

Abstract

Cylindrical grinding is the process of metal removal using multiple cutting point. The objective of the study is to investigate the chip characteristics (shape and width) and surface roughness materials. The materials are AISI 1020, AISI 1045, AISI 1090, AISI D2, and AISI 4340 with a grinding wheels WA46K8V. The research is using cylindrical grinding processes at low-speed workpiece 100 rpm, depth of cut 0.5 mm, in dry condition. Result of research is comparing characteristic chip with variable feet rate 120 mm/min, 420 mm/min, 1300 mm/min. The result is to show the increasing feedrate lead, the growth of chip width and high surface roughness value. On materials AISI 1020, AISI 1045, AISI 1090, and AISI 4340 show that chips width is related to hardness value.
