Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal processing cutting tool technology, and in particular to a profile turning insert and tool for difficult chip breaking conditions. Background Technology

[0002] Turning is one of the most important machining methods in the field of mechanical processing, and profile turning, as an important category of turning, has wide applications in many high-end fields such as aerospace and automotive manufacturing. It is mainly used to process workpieces with complex curved surfaces and irregular contours, and can meet the high-precision and complex shape processing requirements of these fields.

[0003] However, current steel turning processes often involve low cutting speeds, shallow depths of cut, or challenging chip-breaking conditions, particularly with mild steel. Under these conditions, chip breaking becomes a critical issue that urgently needs to be addressed. Traditional profile turning inserts, due to their inherent structural limitations, struggle to achieve ideal chip-breaking results in these challenging situations.

[0004] Existing chip-breaking structures for contour turning generally employ conventional chip breakers. Due to the characteristics of contour turning, the resulting chips are typically wide and thin, making them inherently difficult to break. Moreover, under certain specific working conditions, the difficulty in breaking the chips is further exacerbated by factors such as the inherent properties of the workpiece material (e.g., material toughness) or cutting parameters (e.g., low cutting speed, small depth of cut).

[0005] Difficult-to-break iron filings can cause a series of serious problems. They may become entangled on the tool holder, affecting the normal cutting of the tool and reducing machining accuracy; they may also scratch the surface of the machined workpiece, causing the workpiece to be scrapped; in more serious cases, the iron filings may jam the machine tool, causing machine tool failure, affecting production efficiency, and may even cause safety accidents.

[0006] To address the chip-breaking problem, users typically try increasing cutting parameters, hoping to achieve chip breaking by altering the cutting conditions. However, for most users, the limited load capacity of their machine tools prevents them from handling excessively high cutting parameters; or, for economic reasons, increasing parameters increases energy consumption, tool wear, and other costs, resulting in poor economic efficiency. Moreover, even with increased parameters, chips may still be difficult to break in certain situations, and increasing parameters can also accelerate tool wear, shorten tool life, and further increase machining costs.

[0007] In conclusion, there is currently a lack of profile turning inserts on the market that can specifically target various difficult chip-breaking conditions and have high chip-breaking performance. Therefore, the development of such inserts has significant practical importance and market demand. Utility Model Content

[0030] The device has 12 protrusions and 12 concave points. The 12 protrusions and 12 concave points are arranged around the first arc 55 to form a wave-shaped first arc 55 and a 3D chip breaker.

[0031] The profile turning insert provided by this utility model greatly improves the chip breaking ability by combining the 3D chip breaking groove 52 with the wavy first arc 55 cutting edge, which can meet the difficult chip breaking turning conditions of most steel parts.
