\n

When we get the drawing of the workpiece, we first select the indexable insert with suitable shape according to the requirements of the drawing. In general, the lathe is mainly used to complete the work of turning the outer circle and inner hole, cutting and grooving and turning thread. The selection of insert depends on the specific conditions of the processing technology. Generally, the insert with higher versatility and more cutting edges on the same insert should be selected. Larger size is selected for rough turning, and smaller size is selected for fine and semi fine turning. According to the process requirements, we determine the required insert shape, cutting edge length, tool tip arc, insert thickness, insert back angle and insert accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selecting the shape of the insert<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1.outside turning inserts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

S-shaped: four cutting edges, short cutting edge (refers to the same diameter of inscribed circle), high strength of tool tip, mainly used for 75 \u00b0 and 45 \u00b0 turning tools, and for processing through holes in internal hole cutters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n



T-shape: three edge, long edge and low strength. The insert\u00a0with offset angle is often used to improve the strength of tool tip. It is mainly used for 90 \u00b0 turning tools. The inner hole turning tool is mainly used for processing blind hole and step hole.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

C shape: there are two kinds of insert angle. The strength of the two tool tips with 100 \u00b0 tool tip angle is high. Generally, it is made into 75 \u00b0 turning tool for rough turning of the outer circle and end face. The strength of the two edge edges of the 80 \u00b0 insert angle is high. It can be used to process the end face or cylindrical surface without changing the tool. The inner hole turning tool is generally used for processing step holes.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

R-shape: round cutting edge, used for machining special circular arc surface, with high insert\u00a0utilization rate but large radial force. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D-shape: it has two long cutting edges, 55 \u00b0 angle and low strength. It is mainly used for profiling. When 93 \u00b0 turning tool is made, the cutting angle shall not be greater than 27 \u00b0 to 30%; when 62.5 \u00b0 turning tool is made, the cutting angle shall not be greater than 57 \u00b0 to 60 \u00b0 and it can be used for step hole and shallow back cleaning when machining inner hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

V-shaped: two cutting edges and long, the cutting edge angle is 35 \u00b0 and the cutting point strength is low, which is used for profiling. The cutting angle is not more than 50 \u00b0 when making 93 \u00b0 turning tool, not more than 70 \u00b0 when making 72.5 \u00b0 turning tool, and no more than 35 \u00b0 when making 107.5 \u00b0 turning tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Cutting and grooving inserts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.Cutting insert<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generally, the cutting insert which directly presses the chip breaking groove is used on the numerical control lathe. It can make the chip transverse contraction deformation, cutting is light and fast, and chip breaking is reliable. In addition, its side deflection angle and side back angle are very large, cutting heat generation is less, service life is long, but the price is higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Grooving insert:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

generally, the deep groove cutting insert\u00a0is used, and the shallow groove cutting insert\u00a0is formed insert. For example, vertical grooving insert, flat grooving insert, strip grooving insert\u00a0and step clearing arc root groove insert, the groove width accuracy of these inserts\u00a0is high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Threaded insert:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L-shaped insert\u00a0is commonly used. This insert\u00a0can be reground and its price is cheap, but it can’t cut the top of teeth. For the thread with high cutting accuracy, the insert\u00a0with good tooth shape should be used. Because of the different tooth shape sizes of the internal and external threads, it is divided into internal and external thread inserts. Its pitch is fixed and can be used to cut out the top of the tooth. As a clamping method, there are two kinds of clamping methods: one is the insert\u00a0without hole, which is clamped by upward pressure type, and the other is the insert\u00a0with chip breaking groove and clamping hole, which is clamped by pressing hole type plum blossom screw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cutting edge length<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cutting edge length: it should be selected according to the back feed. Generally, the cutting edge length of slotted insert should be no less than 1.5 times of the back feed, and the cutting edge length of the closed groove insert should be no less than 2 times of the back feed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tool Nose Arc<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tool tip arc: when rough turning, as long as the rigidity is allowed, it can be touched as much as possible. Generally, the radius of tool tip arc is smaller when the rigidity is allowed. However, when the rigidity is allowed, it should be selected from a larger value. The commonly used circle radii for pressing are 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 2.4, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

insert\u00a0thickness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

insert thickness: the selection principle is to make the insert have enough strength to bear the cutting force, which is usually selected according to the back feed and feed rate. For example, some ceramic inserts need to use thicker inserts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

insert\u00a0back angle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

insert back angle: commonly used are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0 \u00b0 code n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 \u00b0 code B<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7 \u00b0 code C<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11 \u00b0 code P.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

0 \u00b0 back angle is generally used for rough and semi finish turning, 5 \u00b0 for rough turning, 7 \u00b0 for 7 \u00b0 for 11 \u00b0 for semi finishing, finishing turning, profiling and inner hole machining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

insert\u00a0accuracy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

insert accuracy: there are 16 kinds of indexable inserts specified by the state, among which 6 kinds are suitable for turning tools, with the codes of H, e, G, m, N, u, with H being the highest and u being the lowest. The rough and semi finishing machining of ordinary lathes is of class u, and those with higher requirements for the position of tool tip or CNC lathes use M, and the more advanced ones use G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the above steps, we have basically determined what kind of insert\u00a0should be used. In the next step, we need to further check the electronic samples of the insert\u00a0manufacturer, and finally determine the type of insert\u00a0to be used according to the materials and precision to be processed.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
