Análise da temperatura filete a filete no rosqueamento interno por machos de corte.

Abstract

Among the manufacturing processes, threading stands out, as it can be accomplished by machining or by forming. This process is responsible for the creation of internal and external threads, which has great applicability in production lines. Due to the market’s great competitiveness, methods are sought to increase production by decreasing the time of each unit process. However, tapping is usually performed at low cutting speeds due to limitations related to the manufacturing process. The study of the tapping can bring benefits, such as the reduction of wear mechanisms, resulting in an increase in tool life. In this research, the temperature was measured from fillet to fillet in the conical part of the tool, varying the cutting speed and the number of fillets. The tap used is, M 10 x 1.5 HSS, uncoated in threading process for internal thread production in SAE 1045. To analyze the temperature was used the tool-workpiece thermocouple method on each fillet of the tap. The cutting speeds used were 10 and 25m / min. From the second fillet on the temperature is constant, even with the increase in the number of fillets, as expected.
