The impact of the cutting parameters and tool condition on surface integrity when milling Inconel 625

During machining, the workpiece material tends to undergo mechanical and thermal transformations. Machining Inconel 625 is a challenging task since this material has low thermal conductivity, rapidly work hardening, and maintains its strength even at high temperatures. This superalloy is used extensively by the aerospace and oil and gas industries due to both its corrosion and heat resistance. All these characteristics influence tool life, …
