Abstract

The paper presents a cutting tool complex cooling system (CCS) based on the use of the first-order phase transitions for cutting process thermal stabilization by prolongation of the fusible material melting (e.g., Rose’s metal) with the help of the heat pipes.Combined cutting tools and mills with indexable inserts are designed and manufactured. The time of temperature stabilization, depending on the amount of consumable substance is calculated. It is shown that the size of the container with fusible substance can provide a melting time equal to or multiple of the execution time of technological operations.
