Machinability Parameters on New and Selective Aerospace Materials

Abstract

Four groups of alloys of interest to the aerospace industry were selected for the machinability studies from a survey of the industry and a review of the literature. The four groups consisted of (1) high strength steels, (2) titanium alloys, (3) nickel base alloys and (4) stainless steel alloys. Both wrought and cast alloys were included in the first three groups. A short study was also made of the machined surfaces obtained by face milling and grinding of two titanium alloys, a high strength steel, and a nickel base alloy.
