Recently, the study and understanding of surface integrity of various materials after machining is becoming one of the interpretative keys to quantify a product's quality and life cycle performance. The possibility to provide fundamental details about the mechanical response and the behavior of the affected material layers caused by thermo-mechanical loads resulting from machining operations can help the designer to produce parts with superior quality. The aim of this work is to study the experimental outcomes obtained from orthogonal cutting tests and a Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) process known as Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) in order to find possible links regarding induced microstructural and hardness changes between machined surface layer and SPD-bulk material for Al-7075. This scientific investigation aims to establish the basis for an innovative method to study and quantify metallurgical phenomena that occur beneath the machined surface of bulk material.

Abstract

Recently, the study and understanding of surface integrity of various materials after machining is becoming one of the interpretative keys to quantify a product's quality and life cycle performance. The possibility to provide fundamental details about the mechanical response and the behavior of the affected material layers caused by thermo-mechanical loads resulting from machining operations can help the designer to produce parts with superior quality. The aim of this work is to study the experimental outcomes obtained from orthogonal cutting tests and a Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) process known as Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) in order to find possible links regarding induced microstructural and hardness changes between machined surface layer and SPD-bulk material for Al-7075. This scientific investigation aims to establish the basis for an innovative method to study and quantify metallurgical phenomena that occur beneath the machined surface of bulk material.
