【 摘 要 】

In this paper, an experimental investigation, based on force special parameters, is adopted to analyze the relationship between the milling tool and adhesive phenomena in milling C17200. Generally speaking, the adhesive characteristics, force fluctuations, and tool failure are the main factors affecting the impact of the cutting process on tool wear patterns. However, difficult-to-cut materials, such as the beryllium–copper alloy C17200, require machining processes with tools with lives that are difficult to predict, due to their excellent mechanical properties. To analyze the tool failure process, a series of experiments based on cutting speed and tool geometry are presented in this paper to observe the adhesive effect on tool flank surfaces and force fluctuations. The results show that the variation of special force parameters in different directions reveals that the thermal–mechanical effect on sticking substances reached a possible peak value, with inflection points in different parameters at 200 m/min. The sticking substances and tool surfaces (observed by energy disperse spectroscopy and scanning electron microscope), wear capacity, and back-scattered electron imaging also confirmed that adhesion in the wear zone reached a peak value at 200 m/min in the cutting process, exacerbating the adhesive effect on tool failure.
