However, their poor machinability leads to severe tool wear and bad machined surface. In this paper laser assisted machining is adopted in machining Al 2O 3p/Al composite and good result was obtained. The result of experiment shows in machining Al 2O 3p/Al composites the cutting force is reduced in 30%～50%, the tool wear is reduced in 20%～30% and machined surface quality is improved in laser assisted machining as compared with conventional cutting. The physical model of the cutting process is set up and explains the reason why the cutting forced are reduced. The state of the particles is the main influence of the change. When the material of cutting zone is heating by laser, the aluminum matrix becomes softer and easier in plastic deformation, which leads to the reduction of the pushing force from the tool to the machined surface. The soften aluminum matrix is more easy to be squeezed out from the machined surface, and it leads the concentration of the Al 2O 3 particles in the surface layer of machined surface. The softening effect of laser heating on aluminum matrix reduces the pushing forces of the Al 2O 3 particles on the clearance face of cutting tool, which is just the reason for the severe cutting tool wear in conventional machining of Al 2O 3p/Al composite. Because the Al 2O 3 particles were pushed in during the cutting process, the particles increased in the surface layer. Because of the difference in thermal conductivity and thermal expansion between the Al-matrix and Al 2O 3 particle, residual stress is changed in the matrix after machining due to the extrusion of the tool, deformation of the matrix and displacement of the Al 2O 3 particle in the matrix. Temperature gradient comes into the cutting zone and the work-piece surface layer, it will lead to the increase of thermal stress and misfit dislocation in the matrix. The residual stress is compressive in the laser assisted hot cutting surface, the compressive stress is nearly triple times than that in the conventional cutting surface. Some analysis on the mechanism of laser heat assisted machining of Al 2O 3p/Al composite is given in the paper too.展开更多

It shows that AWJ cutting can produce good quality kerf at high production rate if the cutting parameters are properly selected. A scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of the cut surfaces reveals that the erosive process for the matrix material (resin) involves shearing and ploughing as well as intergranular cracking, while shearing is a dominant process for cutting the fibres in the upper cutting region but the fibers are mostly pulled out in the lower region.展开更多
