While the ceramic inserts could potentially be used for more than one groove, he says that he changes them after each groove to be on the safe side. But even at one groove per insert, he says he’s impressed with the predictability and longevity of the ceramic inserts. In fact, he’s quit trying to push tool life in the face grooving operation because the ceramic inserts are comparable in price to the carbide inserts when time savings are factored in.

Part of your issue is that you’re doing this with corn from the freezer. If you’d just cut the kernels off your freshly picked corn and then vacuum seal it you’ll find this a far better way to achieve a good result.

This was especially true for TNG Energy Services Inc., a geothermal company that provides both equipment and services from its Bakersfield, California, headquarters. The company’s mostly JIT workload along with meeting strict quality control requirements led its employees to work large amounts of overtime. This was due, in large part, to the challenges of machining grooves in valve components for oilfield applications using conventional carbide inserts. By switching to ceramic inserts from Greenleaf Corp. (Saegertown, Pennsylvania), TNG was able to dramatically reduce cycle time for two valve applications, meeting deadlines without the additional overtime costs.

Wow! Those are some very interesting ways! I haven’t tried any of those before. Similar to the bundt pan, I’ve used a large bowl to surround the corn during the cutting process.

The groove is produced in one shot, eliminating the finish pass as well. When TNG started using the ceramic face grooving tool, Mr. Hylton says he was nervous. He questioned his Greenleaf representative about his suggested cutting speeds. However, he says his fears were soon calmed when he saw the Stellite coming off like powder. The ceramic face grooving tool can cut the groove in 30 to 40 seconds.

Another problem was the machine’s low speed. It simply didn’t have the torque necessary to efficiently machine all layers of the material, and it would rumble and beat everything up, Mr. Hylton says. He often used three carbide insert tips during the process, requiring him to stop, pull the insert, change it and hit cycle start again. The entire grooving process took between 47 minutes to an hour to complete. To make matters worse, Mr. Hylton says that sometimes the insert would break randomly; there was no consistency at all.

I know it isn’t corn season but everything I harvest somehow ends up in the freezer. As I was purging the freezer, I realized I had over 50 ears of corn stuck in a bunch of different places. How the heck was I going to cut the corn off the cobs to make room in the freezer? Cutting the cobs one by one was waaay to tedious and hard. So, enter the bundt cake pan. Learn how to cut corn off the cob with the aid of a bundt cake pan.

Before switching to ceramics, TNG used carbide inserts to produce two API ring grooves on 31/8-inch-diameter valve bodies with a 1963 manual-engine lathe, a process that took between 10 and 15 minutes each to complete. The real challenge, though, was in reconditioning these valve bodies, because it often required cutting through difficult-to-machine materials such as Inconel. For instance, after opening the grooves in the cast steel base material 3/16-inch larger than the API specifications, the valve went to the welding department for Inconel cladding. From there, the process involved opening a straight face groove with a face grooving tool followed by an API ring groove tool. This was only possible by moving into the cut 0.100-inch axially, then moving in a positive and negative radial direction to the groove’s full width. After that, the machinist would move the tool in another 0.050 inch and blend from side to side to match the width of the previous radial cut. These tiny increments were repeated until the full depth of cut was reached. An experienced, efficient machinist like TNG’s lead machinist, Cimaron Hylton, could produce one groove in about 45 minutes, though many days it took closer to an hour.

According to Mr. Hylton, taking such small depths of cut was necessary to reduce vibration and chatter, yet it didn’t fully eliminate it. Several times during the grooving process, machinists had to check the pitch diameter to ensure accuracy. They also had to hand-polish the angled groove walls.

TNG also uses ceramic inserts on its bread and butter work of cutting valve seats in 410 stainless with a Stellite overlay. According to Mr. Hylton, this application is tricky because the groove goes through the Stellite, then through the heat-affected zone and down to the base material—an application that requires cutting material ranging from 40 to 67 HRC.

As the demand for faster production cycles continues to grow, the ability to produce high-quality parts quickly and efficiently has become increasingly important. High-speed 3D printing has emerged as a key solution to reduce lead times and increase productivity across industries. However, like any advanced technology, it comes with its own set of challenges. In this webinar, Forward AM will explore both the opportunities and hurdles of adopting high-speed printing with a particular focus on overcoming those challenges. It’ll start by discussing the fundamentals of high-speed 3D printing and how it differs from conventional 3D printing methods. It’ll then move on to the key factors that influence successful implementation, including the impact of materials, equipment and design considerations. One of the main hurdles in high-speed 3D printing is ensuring the right balance between speed and part quality. Different materials behave differently under high-speed conditions — and not all equipment is optimized for this process. Forward AM will showcase some validated materials and equipment that are proven to perform well under these conditions. In addition, the presenters will look at real-world examples and applications where high-speed 3D printing has been successfully implemented, highlighting the collaboration between designers, engineers and manufacturers.

The choice between buying a new machine or refurbishing the current one will become clear after a thorough assessment of the machine.

Now, the company uses a face grooving tool with Greenleaf’s new Xsytin-1 ceramic inserts and a support blade. According to Greenleaf, Xsytin-1 is a phase-toughened ceramic insert grade that is showing promise for a wider range of materials than traditional ceramic insert technology, bridging the gap between conventional carbide and ceramic inserts for exotic materials, as well as more conventional metals such as mild and stainless steels. The company says its proprietary phase-toughening ceramic manufacturing process developed for this coating-free grade results in predictable, wear- and thermal-shock-resistant inserts that are twice as strong as the company’s WG-300 whisker grade. It also enables the generation of a sharper insert edge, which can lead to reduced tool pressure and better surface finishes.

The ceramic inserts really show their colors during the reconditioning applications, Mr. Hylton says. After the Inconel cladding is applied, he mills down the weld that’s bulging above the flange and follows up with the Ring Max tool, cutting the ring groove in just 28 seconds. Because ring groove machining is a continuous cut, through-spindle coolant is used. The coolant is used not to cool the insert, but to cause the chips to become more brittle and break into smaller pieces, sometimes becoming almost powder-like.

Ceratizit USA has promoted Troy Wilt from national sales manager to managing director of Ceratizit USA, cutting tools division.

Spurred by often unpredictable tool life and lengthy production times, TNG turned to ceramic inserts from Greenleaf. In the ring groove application, the company decided to use the Ring Max API ring groove cutter with WG-300 whisker-reinforced ceramic inserts. Designed specifically for the oil and gas industry, Greenleaf’s Ring Max line of ring groove tooling is engineered to reduce the machining time of API ring grooves, while the basic concept of WG-300 involves reinforcing a hard ceramic matrix with extremely strong, stiff, silicon-carbide crystals, or “whiskers.” The whiskers are dispersed into a matrix of fine-grained aluminum oxide, where they act much like glass filaments do in fiberglass, for example, by adding tensile strength and improving the fracture toughness of the brittle matrix.

With the carbide inserts, Mr. Hylton says he had to peck at 0.005-inch depth increments to keep any edge at all. In addition, the retract amount that was programmed into the peck cycle had to be larger than usual due to tremendous amounts of tool pressure. In this case, the actual surface of the cutting tool/workpiece interface was 0.010-inch farther out than the actual machine position. The need to have a 0.012-inch buffer between pecks increased the actual feed travel to 1.498 inches. This meant the machine had to feed a total of six times the actual depth of the groove. The slow nature of this process was exacerbated by the need to peck.
