<\/figure><\/div>Oil-based cutting fluid has good lubricity and poor cooling effect. The lubrication performance of water-based cutting fluid and oil-based cutting fluid is relatively poor, and the cooling effect is better. Slow cutting requires strong lubricity of cutting fluid. Generally speaking, cutting oil is used when cutting speed is less than 30 m\/min.<\/p>
Cutting oil containing extreme pressure additives is effective when cutting speed does not exceed 60 m\/min for any material. In high-speed cutting, because of the high calorific value and the poor heat transfer effect of oil-based cutting fluid, the temperature in the cutting area will be too high, which will lead to smoke and fire in the cutting oil, and because the workpiece temperature is too high, thermal deformation will occur, which will affect the workpiece processing accuracy, so water-based cutting fluid is often used.<\/p>
Emulsion combines lubricity and rust resistance of oil with the excellent cooling ability of water, and has good lubrication and cooling performance, so it is very effective for high-speed and low-pressure metal cutting which generates a lot of heat. Compared with oil-based cutting fluid, the advantages of emulsifier are greater heat dissipation, cleanliness, economy brought by water dilution, and the health and safety of operators, which make them happy to use. In fact, in addition to the particularly difficult materials, the emulsifier can be used for almost all light and medium load cutting and most heavy load processing. The emulsifier can also be used for all grinding processes except thread grinding, groove grinding and another complex grinding. The disadvantage of the emulsifier is that it is easy for bacteria and mildew to multiply and make the effective components of the emulsifier produce chemical decomposition and odor. Deterioration, so generally should be added to the toxic organic fungicides.<\/p>
The advantages of chemical synthetic cutting fluid are economy, fast heat dissipation, strong cleanliness, and excellent workpiece visibility. It is easy to control the processing size. Its stability and anti-corruption ability are better than emulsified fluid. The poor lubrication will cause the adhesion and wear of the moving parts of machine tools. Moreover, the sticky residues left by chemical synthesis will affect the movement of machine parts and will cause rust on the overlapping surfaces of these parts.<\/p>
In general, water-based cutting fluid should be selected in the following circumstances:<\/p>
1.Potential fire hazards of oil-based cutting fluids;<\/p>
2. High speed and large feed cutting make the cutting area exceed the high temperature, smoke is intense, and there is a fire danger.<\/p>
3.Considering the process of the former and the latter, it is necessary to use water-based cutting fluid.<\/p>
4.Hope to alleviate the pollution and dirty around the machine tool caused by oil splash, oil mist protection and diffusion, so as to keep the operating environment clean.<\/p>
Considering the price, the general water-based cutting fluids can meet the requirements of the use and greatly reduce the cost of cutting fluids when the surface quality requirements of some easy-to-process materials are not high.<\/p>
When the durability of cutting tools takes a large proportion of the economy of cutting (such as the expensive price of cutting tools, the difficulty of grinding tools, the long time of loading and unloading assistance), the high precision of machine tools, absolutely not allowing water to mix in (to avoid corrosion), the easy collusion of lubrication system and cooling system of machine tools, as well as the occasions without waste liquid treatment equipment and conditions. Oil-based cutting fluid should be considered.<\/p>
Scope of application<\/h2>Folding tool steel<\/h3>
Its heat resistance temperature is about 200 – 300 C. It can only be used for cutting general materials and will lose hardness at high temperature. Because of the poor heat resistance of this kind of tool, the cooling effect of coolant is required to be better, and it is generally appropriate to use an emulsifier.<\/p>
Folding High Speed Steel<\/h3>
This material is high-grade alloy steel based on chromium, nickel, tungsten, molybdenum, and vanadium (some also contain aluminum). Its heat resistance is obviously higher than that of tool steel, and the allowable maximum temperature can reach 600 C. Compared with other high-temperature resistant metals and ceramics, high-speed steel has a series of advantages, especially its high toughness, suitable for complex geometry workpiece and continuous cutting, and high-speed steel has good machinability and is easy to be accepted at price. Oil-based cutting fluid or emulsifier is recommended for low and medium speed cutting with high-speed steel tools. In high-speed cutting, water-based cutting fluid is suitable because of its high calorific value. If oil-based cutting fluid is used, it will produce more oil mist, pollute the environment, and easily cause workpiece burns, reduce processing quality and increase tool wear.<\/p>
Folded cemented carbide<\/h3>
The cemented carbide used for cutting tools is composed of tungsten carbide (WC), titanium carbide (TiC), tantalum carbide (TaC) and 5-10% cobalt. Its hardness is much higher than that of high-speed steel. The maximum allowable working temperature can reach 1000 C. It has excellent wear resistance and can reduce the bonding phenomenon between chips when processing steel materials. When choosing cutting fluid, the sensitivity of cemented carbide to sudden heat should be considered, so that the tool can be heated evenly as possible, otherwise, the cutting edge will collapse. Dry cutting is often used in the processing of general materials, but in dry cutting, the higher temperature rise of the workpiece makes the workpiece prone to thermal deformation and affects the processing accuracy of the workpiece. Moreover, cutting without lubricant can increase power consumption and speed up tool wear due to high cutting resistance. Cemented carbide cutting tools are expensive, so from the economic point of view, dry cutting is also not economical. When choosing cutting fluid, the thermal conductivity of general oil-based cutting fluid is poor, so the risk of tool sudden cooling is smaller than that of water-based cutting fluid, so oil-based cutting fluid containing anti-wear additives is generally suitable. When cutting with coolant, attention should be paid to the uniform cooling of the tool. Before cutting, it is better to use the coolant in advance to cool the tool. For high-speed cutting, the cutting area should be sprayed with large flow cutting fluid to avoid tool thermal unevenness and edge collapse and to reduce soot pollution caused by evaporation due to excessive temperature.<\/p>
Folded ceramics<\/h3>
Alumina, metal and carbide are sintered at high temperature. The wear resistance of this material at high temperature is better than that of cemented carbide. Dry cutting is generally used, but water-based cutting fluid is often used in consideration of uniform cooling and avoiding excessive temperature.<\/p>
Folded diamond<\/h3>
It has very high hardness and is generally used in cutting. In order to avoid excessive temperature, water-based cutting fluids are used in many cases, just like ceramics.<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
