Magnesium turning
Technical Characteristics
Magnesium alloys lend themselves well to all types of machining: turning, milling, drilling, countersinking
Safety precautions
Machining must be carried out with tools that are sharp, properly sharpened, and do not generate excessive friction. 2.
2. 2. The shape of the cutter should provide enough space to reduce friction and chip overheating.
3. The thickest possible chip is desirable.
4. Avoid working with blunt tools, low feeds, or with the machine off feed. Work with feeds less than 0,05 mm is not recommended.
5. It is recommended to set a certain rate of work with one cutter without sharpening it.
6. Cutting speed when machining magnesium alloys is higher than when machining aluminum alloys.
7. During the turning operations with cutters made of carbon or high-speed steel the cutting speed reaches 1000 - 1500 m/min. The use of carbide inserts makes it possible to increase the cutting speed up to 3000 m/min and more.
8. The cutting speed of 500-1500 m/min is used. Angles of tool sharpening must be chosen in accordance with the available standards depending on the material and type of cutter.
9. Low cutting pressure and high thermal conductivity of magnesium and its alloys practically allow dry machining without using an artificial coolant. In cases where the use of artificial cooling is necessary, cooling with compressed air is recommended.
