Abstract:

The machining of aluminium 2618 particulate reinforced Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) with 18 vol. % silicon carbide (SiC) using cemented carbide cutting tools has been undertaken. Two grades of cemented carbide inserts, uncoated K68 grade and coated KC910 grade (coated with TiC and A1203) having negative and positive rake angles (with and without chip breaker) have been used to machine this material in order to understand the machining process, tool failure modes and wear mechanisms. Turning tests in the speed range 15 - 10 m/min have been carried out at 0.2,0.4 and 0.6 mm/rev feed rates and 2

Abstract:

The use of carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) and metal matrix composites (MMC) is steadily increasing as an alternative to traditional metallic materials in various industrial sectors. The overall aim of the project is to assess the machinability when drilling epoxy based CFRP and Al/SiCp MMC composites and understand its effects on feature quality and workpiece integrity. Specific objectives of the project relate to establishing preferred/optimum operating parameters (cutting speed, feed rate and drill strategies) and investigating the influence of cutting environment (dry, chilled air,

Abstract:

In modern automotive engines, the vast majority of light vehicle diesel (LVD) pistons are made from gravity die cast monolithic AlSi based alloy systems. Presently, the market drivers for reduced emissions, more efficient fuel consumption and increased specific power output are providing cyclic thermal and mechanical fatigue loading above the safe life durability threshold for the current AlSi based alloy systems. Peak temperatures in the diesel piston’s fatigue critical combustion bowl region are presently 420 °C for the AlSi based alloys, which represents a homologous TH value in excess of

Abstract:

Particle-reinforced MMCs (pMMC) such as aluminum alloys reinforced with ceramic silicon carbide particles (AlSiC) require special cutting tools due to the high hardness and abrasive properties of the ceramic particles. Diamond coated cutting tools are ideal for machining this type of pMMC. Previous research studies focus on the machinability of pMMCs with low ceramic content. The aim of this research is to determine the optimal cutting parameters for machining AlSiC material containing high silicon carbide particle reinforcement (>25%). The optimal cutting parameters are determined by investig

Abstract:

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is the process of joining materials layer upon layer to produce parts from CAD model. Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) is an AM process in which metallic parts can be produced. The knowledge of material and mechanical properties are important for producing lightweight and functional parts. Hence, this thesis focuses on characterizing material and mechanical properties of a lightweight alloy processed by DMLS, and using it as metal matrix for producing composites in DMLS process.

The low pressure shaft in the aeroengine is one of the components that could benefit from the superior material properties of TiMMC. Potentially, the use of TiMMC could provide a combination of higher torque density (higher torque for a given diameter) and lower weight for these shafts.
