Description

Tool holder using Carbon Nano Tube Composition Material and Fabricating Method its}

The present invention relates to a tool holder using a carbon nanotube composite material and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly, by combining nanotechnology to reduce the overall weight to reduce the processing load, to increase the natural frequency and damping ratio to chattering during machining The present invention relates to a tool holder using carbon nanotubes having an optimum performance by increasing surface hardness and increasing rigidity by titanium nano heat treatment, and a method of manufacturing the same.

In general, the most difficult process in cutting machining has been developed by a variety of methods, such as boring or reaming hole, and especially among the tool makers KENNAMETAL in the United States, SANDVIK COROMANT in Sweden, TEENESE in Norway, etc. We developed a built-in boring holder and a milling holder, and developed a dimple bar with a cross-sectional shape designed to distribute the cutting force for the main component and the distribution force by giving grooves to the boring heads of SUMITOMO and MITSUBISHI MATERIAL in Japan. Mapal has developed padded reamers and boring bars for deep hole machining.

The holder with the built-in copper reducer increases the overall weight and additionally needs a space for entering the copper reducer, so that chattering does not occur due to vibration attenuation during processing, while the cross section of the head is weakly designed and sagging due to cutting force It becomes large, and the deflection varies greatly depending on the cutting thickness. This mechanism acted as a major cause of lowering the precision of dimensional tolerances in machining.

In addition, dimple bar is made of alloy steel and tungsten carbide body, and is mainly used for small turning work.In case of reamer with pad, guide pad catches the machined hole to catch disturbance of cutting tool holder by chattering. will be.

However, if the pad does not bend smoothly so as to touch the processing surface, it will vibrate in a fine gap.

In addition, in the case of Mapal, tools such as NC reamers, which are available as standard reamers, are designed so that the diameter of the stem between the head and shank is as small as 50-60% of the head. In addition, since the stiffness to hold against the cutting force is reduced so that the pad completely slides on the machining surface of the hole and the stiffness is small, the machining is performed below the resonance region that may be generated during the machining. However, as the depth of the hole increases, the straightness of the processing hole changes along the base hole.

In particular, in the case of machining that requires the straightness of the hole to be precisely processed, such as camshaft journal processing of a car engine head of a long distance, NC reamers are used, and products with long pads are used. The diameter must be increased to increase rigidity and to support deformation with guide pads.

However, these products are quite expensive, and the longer the product, the worse the surface roughness as the aging deformation becomes a problem and the shorter the tool life.

In addition, according to Korean Patent Registration No. 0683943, a tool holder using an internal pitch-based high rigid carbon fiber epoxy composite material is disclosed. Such a tool holder can reduce the overall weight and increase rigidity to give a natural frequency in a high range, and can suppress vibration with high attenuation.

However, such a conventional tool holder has a lower rigidity than the carbon fiber epoxy composite material exposed to the outside because the outer part, which is a metal cover surrounding the outside with the carbon fiber epoxy composite material as the inner part, is made of a general alloy steel material. Accordingly, the rigidity of the metal cover for protecting the outside is insufficient, and the rigidity of the metal cover as the outer protective cover is also ignored in the structure. In addition, in the tool for processing aluminum alloy having a high Si content, erosion of the tool holder due to the chip occurs at the portion where the chip is generated. The hardness of the alloy steel has a problem that such erosion can not be prevented.

Therefore, the present invention is to solve the above problems, the purpose is to reduce the overall weight by combining nanotechnology to reduce the processing load, to increase the natural frequency and damping ratio to prevent chattering during machining, by heat treatment It is intended to provide a tool holder using a carbon nanotube composite material having an optimum performance by increasing the surface hardness and increasing rigidity, and a method of manufacturing the same.

According to the present invention, the composite material portion to be combined with the tool head portion is provided with a composite material in which carbon nanotubes are mixed with a certain amount of carbon nanotubes, and inserted into the composite material portion so as to cover the entire outer surface or a part of the outer surface of the composite material portion. Titanium Cover

By reducing the overall weight of the tool holder by reducing the overall weight of the tool holder, it reduces the load during machining, prevents chattering during high-speed machining by increasing the natural frequency and damping ratio, and obtains precise dimensional tolerances, surface roughness and shape tolerances. By the heat treatment, the surface hardness of the metal is increased, the rigidity and the elastic modulus are increased, so that the service life of the tool holder can be significantly extended as compared with the conventional one, and the maintenance period is also long.

The composite material unit 130 is preferably made of a molded article molded into a mixture of carbon nanotubes carbon nanotubes 4.0 to 6.0wt% mixed in a hollow cylinder.

Accordingly, the carbon nanotubes have a relatively high modulus of elasticity and high tensile strength compared to carbon fiber epoxy to compensate for the low stiffness and strength of epoxy.

 The metal cover 140 is provided in the hollow tube-shaped metal inserted into the composite material portion 130 is provided approximately the same as the overall length of the composite material portion 130 so as to cover the entire outer surface of the composite material portion 130 It consists of members.

Table 1 shows the strength, elasticity and density change of the composite portion according to the change in the content of carbon nanotubes.

Here, the carbon fiber epoxy used a pitch-based high-stiffness carbon nanofiber epoxy composite material.

As shown in Table 1, since the carbon nanotube content is 4.0wt% or less and 6.0wt% or more, it can be seen that mechanical properties such as strength and elasticity of the composite portion are degraded and density is increased, thereby forming the carbon of the composite portion. The content of the nanotubes was 4.0 to 6.0wt% was the most appropriate, 5.0wt% was found to be the best.

The density of the composite material was found to decrease as the content of carbon nanotubes increased.

Table 2 shows the mechanical properties of the prior art made of a carbon fiber epoxy composite material, including carbon nanotubes in the epoxy.

As shown in Table 2, it can be seen that the Young's modulus and strength of the composite material of the present invention is increased and the damping ratio is increased, and the density of the composite material of the present invention is about 6% lower than the conventional. Can be.

Accordingly, the tool holder having a composite material having such mechanical properties is capable of more precisely performing the machining of the hole of the workpiece without chattering at high speed since the damping ratio is large and the natural frequency is increased as compared with the conventional art. .

In addition, since the density of the composite part of the present invention is lower than in the related art, the overall weight of the tool holder can be lowered, thereby reducing the burden on the machine tool for mounting the tool holder and reducing the volume of the machine tool.

In addition, any one of the tool head 110, the core shaft 120, and the metal cover 140 may be prepared by surface heat treating titanium with a catalyst before assembling, and the titanium nano heat treatment may have a treatment time of 10 minutes to 6 minutes. The processing time is short with time, and because the processing temperature is relatively low at 430 to 600 degrees, there is an advantage that deformation or dimensional change of the material does not occur.

In addition, since titanium diffuses under the material surface during titanium nano heat treatment, the hardness is improved and the service life is extended due to the outstanding improvement in wear resistance, toughness, heat resistance and corrosion resistance of titanium.

That is, the surface hardness of the material after heat treatment of titanium nano may vary depending on the material, but in the case of tool steel, it has a high hardness of HV1200 to 1500 (Rockwell hardness 72 to 75HRc), and its depth also forms a deep diffusion layer of about 75 to 125 microns. Done.

On the other hand, cantilever-type line boring bar tool holders are guided through the bushing during machining. In this case, high surface hardness is required, and when the misalignment occurs, the boring bar tool holder is frequently bent due to collision with the bush. In general, a tool holder material used is nitrided or carburized steel, which has a low hardness and a low modulus of elasticity in the core and a general steel.

 At this time, instead of performing nitriding or carburizing treatment on the outside using alloy steel having high modulus of elasticity, when titanium nano-heat treatment is performed on the metal cover part inserted to cover the composite part of the tool holder, the modulus of elasticity is further reinforced to prevent bending. Boring bar tool holders with high hardness can be manufactured.

In addition, cutting tools such as boring bits or micro boring units are installed at the tip of boring bar tool holders, which are fixed in cantilever beams. When using alloy steel with high modulus of elasticity, the hardness of the connecting part connected to the machine tool is increased. Can't raise Therefore, carburizing or nitride steel should be used to increase the hardness of the joint without using alloy steel with high modulus of elasticity. However, chattering is likely to occur in the case of boring bar tool holders having a long diameter to diameter due to low modulus of elasticity. Is higher.

In this case, if the metal cover is made of alloy steel having a high modulus of elasticity and the metal cover is assembled to the composite material part, both conditions can be satisfied, and chattering occurs due to an increase in the modulus of elasticity of the tool holder. It raises the limit of the pressure, which makes it possible to perform stable machining.

It will be appreciated that those skilled in the art can easily know.
