Binderless-cubic-Boron-Nitride(cBN) from the company SUMITOMO CORPORATION, Itami, Japan, provides the opportunity for direct cutting of steel with ultra-precision quality without additional equipment or coating of the workpiece. This work presents the latest results in the field of ultra-precision machining of hardened stainless steel with binderless-cBN. In this paper the influence of the cutting speed vc, the feed f, the depth of cut ap, and the cooling lubricant on the cutting force Fc is shown for turning the stainless steel STAVAX ESU. The cutting speed, the feed and the depth of cut were varied between 3 m/min ≤ vc ≤ 450 m/min, 0.9 μm ≤ f ≤ 9.7 μm, and 5 μm ≤ ap ≤ 30 μm respectively. As cooling lubricants compressed air and W200SL of the company OPORTET, Duisburg, Germany, with a volumetric flow rate = 1 l/min were used. For measuring the cutting forces Fc the piezoelectric dynamometer MINIDYN 9256C2 from the KISTLER INSTRUMENTE AG, Middlefield, USA, was used. As a result of this work cutting forces Fc ≤ 4.9 N could be observed with an inconstant progression over the varied process parameters.

The physical vapour deposition (PVD) process is widely used for the coating of cutting tools. The increased hardness and temperature stability permitted a higher cutting speed and longer tool life in comparison to uncoated tools. Within the PVD-process droplets of the target can be deposited on the coated surface. The consequence is an inhomogeneous surface of the cutting tools with an increased surface roughness. In this study, the immersed tumbling process is used for the droplet removal of micro-milling tools. The results show the functionality of the process for the droplet removal depending of the lapping media and process parameters in connection with the amount and size of the droplets.

Graphite electrodes are used in the die sinking process for manufacturing of micro structured tools in the die and mould fabrication. They are machined using the micro-milling process. During the cutting process graphite grains have strong abrasive effects on the cutting edges and lead to high tool wear. Consequences are short path length lc and geometrical errors. One approach to reduce tool wear is the tool coating with diamond. The diamond coating changes the cutting edge micro geometry which has influences on the process behaviour. In this paper, the wear behaviour of micro-milling tools with diameter D = 0.5 mm and different micro geometries is analysed and discussed. The results show better wear behaviour for prepared and coated tools.

At state of the art micro-milling tools made of cemented carbide are widely used in industry. Nevertheless, these micro-milling tools suffer from fast and random tool breakage while cutting. To improve the wear behaviour of micro-milling tools new cutting materials have to be established. In this work electrical discharge machining (EDM) for manufacturing of micro-milling tools with cutting edges made of boron doped chemical vapour deposition (bdCVD) diamond were investigated. Wire-EDM and die-sinking-EDM were compared regarding the characteristics of the micro-tool's cutting edges. It could be concluded that the wire-EDM process is suitable for manufacturing of micro-milling tools with cutting edges made of bdCVD diamond. With respect to the elaborated technologies for the wire-EDM process a cutting edge radius rβ = 3.9 μm and for the die-sinking-EDM process a cutting edge radius rβ = 5.4 μm could be measured.

Micro electrical discharge milling is an alternative to die-sinking EDM for the machining of three-dimensional micro-structures or cavities with free-form surfaces. An important advantage provided by micro-EDM milling for this purpose is the possibility to use simple pin or tube electrodes with diameters de ≤ 500 μm. This reduces the manufacturing costs of the workpiece and decreases the setup time for positioning electrodes. The high density of conventional dielectric fluids and the resulting small working gap cause a severe contamination of the working gap with particles and as a consequence short-circuits and process instability. The use of gaseous dielectrics, like compressed air, leads to enhancements in the flushing conditions and the cooling of the tool and workpiece electrodes. The gas is injected through the tube electrode under high pressure, resulting in high flow velocities and a removal of melted material from the working gap. A new spindle with a maximum rotation speed of n ≤ 400,000 rpm was developed by the institute for machinetools and Factory Management IWF of the Technische Universität Berlin for the realization of micro dry-EDM milling with tube electrodes. The high speed rotation of the tool electrode stabilizes the process and increases the material removal rate due to better flushing conditions. This paper presents the equipment and machining results of dry-EDM milling of simple micro-scale features.

The mechanical properties of hot-stamped parts strongly depend on the tool's cooling performance. The cooling rate hinges on sufficient temperature gradients and on an excellent contact conductance between tool and workpiece. A uniform distribution of the contact pressure is the key to an even cooling behaviour, and hence, a homogenous micro structure of the formed part. Elastic deformations of machine and tool components under load are a major influence on the pressure distribution between tool surface and hot-stamped part. This applies to hot and cold formingtools. An additional difficulty in hot stamping are superimposed thermal expansions and contractions of the tool, which also affect the part's mechanical properties due to their influence on the normal contact pressure. Manual die spotting needs to compensate for all these undesired effects and makes tool try-out a large time and money-consuming factor in the development of hot formingtools. This paper presents methods to transform the spotting of hot formingtools into a virtual production reality in order to reduce manual labour and lower costs. It gives details on the numerical compensation of tool surfaces for elastic tool and machine deformations and for temperature-induced tool expansions and contractions. The authors critically analyse necessary and achievable accuracies of computed surfaces and point out required improvements for the future implementation of virtual try-outs into tool development and manufacturing processes.

Within this paper, a control volume-based multi-scale approach for heat input modelling in laser-based powder bed fusion of metals is described. Thereby, the Rosenthal equation is used to analyse beam-powder interaction for a single laser track. Based on both the Rosenthal results for melt pool dimensions and experimentally determined melt pool depth, a single layer model is developed. Results for the temperature field, gathered by applying the single layer model, serve as data for validating the control volume-based approach on the build-up scale. Finally, a case study with a turbine blade delivers the proof-of-concept for the applied modelling approaches, because process-related distortions are reduced by more than 40% through pre-deforming the blade according to build-up simulation results.

Surface functionalization allows the control of fluidic, tribological, biological or optical properties. Suitable processes are interference lithography (IL), ultra-precision machining and micro and nano forming. The force-controlled forming process enables a reproducible production of structures with an absolute height in the double-digit nanometer range. The deformation is a complex process consisting of controlled and uncontrolled material deposition. Knowledge about the uncontrolled behaviour, however, allows a reproducible production of defined structures. A model approach with regard to machining parameter prediction is presented here. The tool shape is transferred into the surface by plastic penetration of a faceted diamond tool. By means of a superimposed tool movement, linear structures can be generated. Larger areas can be structured by repeating this process. The advantage of the force control in comparison to the displacement control is a defined penetration depth relative to the surface with reproducibility in the single-digit nanometer range. The force-control is carried out gravimetrically (0.05 N -1-1, 30 nm 2neg2) is considered as ideal load. As additional result of these experiments, physical approaches are available, which can later form the basis of a physical model.
