The effects of temperature on the machining of metals

  • Published:
Journal of Materials Shaping Technology

Abstract

The machining behaviors of metals at various workpiece temperatures are studied by the milling operation. Cutting power was recorded; tool life, chip size, surface finish and the microstructures of chips were examined.
