The Temperature






                                  Effect in Turning












                                       In the last few years, the concept and implementation of cooling
                                       solutions for cutting tools has enjoyed a surge of popularity
                                       and enthusiasm as if it had never existed before. CNC machine
                                       manufacturers throughout the world have invested time and
                                       resources to develop solutions that can supply coolant at high
                                       pressures and today all new machines are supplied with a
                                       high-pressure coolant option.



        Manufacturers from industries such as aerospace,
        automotive, and large part production appreciate the
        immense advantage of supplying coolant directly to the
        cutting edge and are only ordering machines for milling
        centers or turning centers with high pressure coolant
        capabilities - minimum 70 bar and up to 300 bar. Mass
        production manufacturers are also benefiting from the
        integration of ISCAR’s JETCUT tools into their processes.
        One of the most serious enemies of carbide inserts is
        the high temperature of the materials that results from
        the machining process. The average temperature during
        machining can range from 300°C to 900°C.
        As the temperature rises, the lifespan of the inserts is
        shortened. Increased wear can damage workpiece
        quality and negatively affect machining properties:
        the heat generated between the insert and the
        workpiece can cause a change in chip shape and
        plastic deformation of the insert. High pressure
        starting at 70 bar can be effective in breaking
        chips and, in cases when it is difficult to break
        chips and the chip formed is long and curled,
        coolant applied correctly and under high
        pressure can solve this problem.
