Cutting and drilling magnesium
Technical characteristics
This is one of the most technologically advanced metals: it can be pressed, bent, drilled, cut and rolled easily. But in its pure form it is quite fragile, that is why magnesium alloys are more valuable as a construction material. Today they are the basis of the most modern construction materials in transport engineering.
Cutting and drilling
Cutting and drilling of magnesium is very complicated due to the use of cooling water in the cutting equipment, which accidentally gets on the heated magnesium and can cause the chips to ignite. In these cases, it is advisable to use equipment in which water cooling is replaced by gas cooling.Feed rate
Large feed rates should be used. Small feeds contribute to twisted chips that can get stuck in the drill grooves. When drilling deep, it is recommended to use drill bits with a large helix angle.
Coolant
New oil-based metal cutting coolants and emulsols Ukrinol-1 and Akvol-2 have been created. They are prepared on petroleum oils of different viscosity with the introduction of various additives. The most important indicators of commercial coolants are viscosity, the content of mechanical impurities and the corrosive effect on the metal. These indicators for some coolants are given below
