Tools for aluminium machining
The best for aluminium machining
Aluminium
Aluminium - a material that has a future
[ mill. tons]
Aluminium in the automobile
Particularly in the field of transport
engineering massive application of
light weight materials represents
the order of the day. The goal of
saving fuel and other energy forms
can mainly be achieved through the
reduction of vehicle weights.
Apart from various synthetic
materials, the classical light metal
aluminium offers the best
prerequisites for reaching this
objective.
In other application fields, too, its
numerous favourable properties
make aluminium an appreciated
construction material for engineers.

Time saving with
HPC machining
Machining time [in h]
Innovative machining strategies are
characterised by maximum cutting
speeds and feed rates in order to
obtain the highest possible metal
removal rates.
Refraining from massive use of
cooling lubricant represents an
importantdemand with reference to
the environmental impact.
Process safety and an increase in
productivity are the prerequisites
for a favourable market position
and thus competitiveness.
The machining properties of
aluminium are perfectly suitable for
putting modern machining
concepts into practice.
Machinability of aluminium alloys
Relative machinability
It depends on the type of alloy whether materials are easy to machine or not.
As far as machinability is concerned you can find any degree of difficulty, ranging from the easily machined
alloy stocks to the diffult to machine pure aluminium.

5 - bad machinability
Machinability can be defined as the degree of difficulty that a material creates when being machined. In order to
assess the machinability of a material basically 4 parameters have to be taken into consideration:
Ø cutting force
Ø tool life
Ø surface quality
Ø chip formation
3
Machinability of aluminium alloys
1. Cutting force
Aluminium requires only approx. 30 % of the cutting force necessary for
steel materials. The influence of the material on the cutting force is expressed
through the special cutting force Ks1.1 . The rake angle of the cutting edge is
of particular interest regarding the cutting force. Increasing the rake angle
by one degree the cutting force is reduced by ~1.5%.
Important characteristics of PLANSEE TIZIT inserts:
Ø rake angle > 25°
Ø sharp, uniform cutting edge
Ø extra-smooth rake face
2. Tool life

tool life t [min]
The time the cutting edge can be used until it is worn out. In the field of
aluminium machining this criterion is determined by three wear forms:
3. Surface finish
With regard to surface finish you can distinguish between kinematic
roughness, surface roughness and roughness caused by disturbances. The
kinematic roughness is a function of the relative movement between tool
and work piece and the size of the corner radius.
The surface roughness is dependent upon the properties of the alloy, the
cutting data, geometry, cutting material and the surface quality of the rake
face. Disturbances, e.g. lack of stability of the machining systems, result in
surface defects such as chatter marks.

roughness
Important characteristics of PLANSEE TIZIT inserts:
Ø extra-smooth rake face
Ø optimised micro-geometry of the cutting edge
Ø fine grain substrates
4. Chip formation
Badly formed chips disturb the production process considerably. They interfere
with both the work piece and the machine, and are difficult to remove them
from the machining environment. Precisely machined surfaces show
scratches; the quality of the pieces is reduced.

Microfinish
“Microfinish“ is synonymous with a high polish surface finish and therefore represents the logical continuation of
the advanced PLANSEE TIZIT aluminium line.
Indexable inserts with “microfinish“ are perfectly suitable for the extremely high demands in aluminium machining.
The indexable insert with the “P “ for the crucial plus in performance.
Every aluminium alloy has special demands on an indexable insert.

Turning
Maxilock S tooling system
The positive screw clamping guarantees a safe
connection of the insert with the tool holder. Chip
evacuation is not hindered by obstructive clamping
elements. Due to the neutral insert position the
effectively available rake angle is identical with the
rake angle of the insert.

General information
Advantages
PLANSEE TIZIT aluminium inserts are characterised by large rake angles, sharp cutting edges,
extra-smooth rake faces and wear resistant hard metal grades.
With reference to practical application, these properties result in the following advantages:
Ø
Ø
Ø
Ø
Ø
Ø
low cutting forces
low tolerances maintained (component stability)
low burr formation
clean surface at the component
good swarf control
long tool life
These advantages are not only relevant for aluminium!
