Very interested to learn more about the ''manual'', or I guess ''mechanically automated control'' machining of this stuff! Were the tools you used similar to what the screw machine operators would use? i.e brazed carbide touched up on Agathon grinders type of thing?
I used to weld Waspalloy, Inconel, Monel, and a lot of other aircraft engine alloys. I worked for a company called Chromalloy which was an FAA lic. repair station. We reconditioned hot section parts and combustion chambers for a large variety of commercial aircraft engines. I worked mostly on JT-9D Pratt and Whitney parts, and GE LM-2500 parts.
First came across Waspalloy in Rolls-Royce back in the early 1990's. Machining ring sections for jet engines, took a lot of testing to get the operation sequence correct.
I have heard stories from my coworkers about how some gas turbine blades we make sometimes for Siemens and they are made of that stuff. The machine that runs it shakes so much when it begins to mill that you can feel the vibrations in the floor on the other side of the factory floor. We haven’t made them while I have worked there though so i can’t say if it is true or not but maybe someday I’ll see it for myself
That is a thing of beauty, im the sort of person that could spend hours looking at a nicely machined part, than an real beautiful sculpture, well machined parts ARE sculptures anyway, this part gives me warm feelings, really love the surface finish, so pleasing, this video is prosented in such a detailed way, and VERRY good quality, it so sickening how good it is, i sit here like WOOOOOOOOOW, look at that, ooow, ahhhhhhhh, THANK you SO much for the satisfying factual video, 1000/10 for sure, Best wishes to you and family, and keep up this GREAT content, i want to see more, so ofcourse im subbing, thanx SO much for exsisting in this world good sir, you are a giant to me.
I'm literally VTL turning a Waspaloy turbine disk now... Using a 3/8 button since I don't have to get into any tight corners. The bigger radius will last waaaaay longer, for anyone that may need to know.. also a lesser depth of cut helps a ton too, but I'm using a totally different composition of insert, so I may have to order up a 433 like this guy is using. Good stuff!
I am amazed that a part stick out thatvfar did not cause tool chatter. That wasp metal is tuff stuff. I expect the aluminum was more of a challenge in the prototyping and used for filming purposes. Thank you for the VIDEO.
I used to be a metal spinner , not a cnc metal spinner!!!!i mean a manual hand spinner, in the aerospace industry. Ive spun waspalloy so many times a nd trimmed it by hand . As a sheet metal its pretty tough aswell to bend and spin
Water with high pressure trough the tool pointing directly on the tip of the insert can also reduce wear and you can increase speeds and feeds. 10% coolant solution is also an advantage in these difficult to cut materials.
Good explanation, you do a good job explaining what each process does. Would this be a candidate for ceramic turning? Obviously this is for demonstration purposes, but I definitely see how having a (B?) head isn't a 'fixall' for all situations, turret tools can get much close and you can reduce hangouts a whole bunch.
I would love to see you guys machine some bronze parts, specifically the type found on sea vessels. I currently work with that material as a new manual machinist, aspiring to be a CNC machinist some day.
Cool part, cool video. I've never used that material but you cut it well. Why do you use a tapered endmill to finish the star pattern instead of a straight endmill in an axial (horisontal) orientation to the part? Is the parts corner radius too small to allow a suitable endmill to generate the shape properly in that orientation?
"Going a little light for the threading" sounded very uncharacteristic of both this channel and the alloy, but that chip tells me "a little light" was still pretty aggressive
This stuff would be a lot worse than monel. That stuff is just tough and a bit gummy, this stuff is like IRL adamantium with its chemical makeup, all it would need would be a few percent tungsten and it would be nearly impossible to machine with anything short of EDM.😮.
If you think that's tough try nimonic PK33, I used to work in a superalloy production facility, it was hard to just cut the billets with an abrasive wheel
Try stellite 31. I used to make the pins that pushed out the old glass headlights thats had the four protrusions on the backside. B4 heat treat they would eat an insert about every 3 parts. This was 1988-89. Then after heat treat they came back and centerless ground everything with tolerances like +.0000 -.0002 you dressed the wheel every pin.

I have never seen Waspalloy being machined. But I have seen a sheet metal item butt welded with TIG. A beautiful seam without filler metal. If I remember, it was also done without back-up gas. The part was likely a special nozzle, shaped as a partly flattened cone, i.e. an elliptical cross section. The welding required rather funny shape tooling.

It's a showpiece, not intended for any function except to show the process and tooling using to cut Waspaloy. A "real" aerospace fastener like that would have a 12-point (not 8) drive, and more likely be forged and roll-threaded instead of cut thread (for toughness and thread flank surface finish quality).
I have a couple of questions here. Why are you clamping on the thread at pick off, but then pausing and pushing the part all the way in so you’re clamping on that clean shaft and up against the flange face after? Why not just do all that at pick off?
It's not often where I click a vid touting an unusual material that I'd actually not either sweated over or tortured some machinery trying to do the impossible with. Inconel, I could write a book about, but Waspaloy was truly a 'what did he say?' moment. Guess I've been spending too much time in composites!

Rolled threads and forged heads are substantially stronger. Just look at how bicycle spokes are made. High tension fine threads.
Chef's kiss, it's a beautiful 😚🤌
is waspaloy easier or harder to machine than inconel? In my shop we never run inconel above 90 SF/M. These speeds and feeds seem high.
The cobalt added to the alloy likely makes it more difficult than most of the Inconel family.
What rpm is he using? What does 100 SFM calculate to for a piece that diameter?

Just buy 45 degree tilt style lathe cutter that was created specifically for B-axis lathes, and you won't need to tilt your basic cutter horizontally.
Why do you think that taper would help with tool life? I am very curious.
Stiffer tool than a regular ball endmill, cutting down chatter and resultant edge fracture.
How much does it cost for this type of bolt to be machined?
did you really grip on that radius in the 2nd op?
They must have chamfered the ends of the jaws to clear the radius. I wondered about it too when I saw him run the piece up the chuck.
I want to know why at pick off, why he didn’t feed all the way up to the flange face in the first place. I was taught to never clamp on threads.
Hey Tyson
What do you normally set your G50 max rpm at?
Most of these alloys are age hardening, so annealing them before machining would help
Have you machined any amorphous metals yet?
