Benefits of technology

This patent is about a method of machining iron using a special fluid composition. This fluid concentrate is mixed with water to create a 1% to 100% solution before use. Using this solution reduces tool wear by 5% to 90% compared to traditional lubricants. The machined iron can be compacted graphite iron.

Problems solved by technology

Certain types of cast irons such as compacted graphite iron may be difficult to machine; the metal cutting and grinding often necessary in the fabrication of industrial components may present challenges and difficulties resulting in, for example, rapid and accelerated rates of tool wear, as well as in reduced quality of the part produced.
Such a graphite structure produces lower levels of discontinuities and stress concentration effects within the metal, giving rise to higher strength and toughness properties, as well as lower machinability.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority benefit from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 568,979, filed on Dec. 9, 2011, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND[0002]Cast irons may be used in the production of many industrial components. Certain types of cast irons such as compacted graphite iron may be difficult to machine; the metal cutting and grinding often necessary in the fabrication of industrial components may present challenges and difficulties resulting in, for example, rapid and accelerated rates of tool wear, as well as in reduced quality of the part produced.[0003]With much effort currently underway in industry to replace standard gray cast irons with compacted graphite iron to produce lighter and higher strength parts, it is useful to describe the differences both structurally and compositionally which give rise to the differences in the material properties and machinability of these two metals. Gray ca...
