Modeling of process of gear milling for definition of the intense deformed state in replaceable many-sided plates of a worm mill

Abstract

The tool equipment plays an important role in work of machine-building enterprises. One of the most important elements of equipment is the metal-cutting tool [1]. Replacement of the tool from HSS of steel on the cutting tool with use of WC-Co [2-7] sintered hard alloys gives increase in productivity and overall effectiveness of processing [8-11]. When the cutting ability of material of the tool increases, the universality of its application decreases therefore the most rational is comprehensive research approach which considers design of the tool the used WC-Co hard alloy. Design, production and testing of the toothed cutting tools, working off of the modes of cutting have to be carried out concerning a specific work piece and its material. When developing this kind of the tool it is necessary to consider features of WC-Co alloy as the cutting material, the cutting modes, destruction of the tool and other moments connected with its use. Influence of an initial contour on distribution of tension in the replaceable cutting many-sided plate. Results of calculation of the intense deformed state in a replaceable plate from the material WC-Co. Zones of stretching and compression are observed on the main cutting edge. Concentration of the dangerous stretching tension is located in a transitional zone between the direct side cutting edge to top as in this zone there is the greatest constraint of cutting. Respectively, the greatest destruction will happen in this zone. Important, the fact that in this part of the cutting edge there will be the biggest wear on a back surface. The analysis of isolines of distribution of tension showed that the stretching tension along a front surface of the replaceable cutting plate decreases because each replaceable cutting plate cuts off the part of material. First, work is entered by the made narrower cutting plate which cuts off metal an upper part of the cutting plate, and then the underestimated cutting plate which works with the side cutting edges works. As a result of the conducted researches it was established that with the progressive scheme of cutting in comparison with the standard scheme of cutting at which the initial profile of the making rail is made on DIN3972 at gear milling, dangerous tensile stresses in the cutting hard-alloy plates significantly decrease.
