Experimental investigations into groove bottom surface roughness for Zr-based bulk metallic glass by using milling.

In order to study the milling machinability of Zr-based bulk metallic glass, a comparative experimental study on the surface roughness of the milling groove bottom surface for Zr-based bulk metallic glass was carried out in this paper. Through different processing materials, milling tools with different coatings, milling tools with different geometric parameters, and different processing conditions, a large number of comparative tests were carried out on the surface roughness of the milling groove bottom surface for Zr-based bulk metallic glass. The surface roughness values of the milling groove bottom surface are compared, studied, and analyzed from many angles (surface roughness Sa, Sq, Sz, Ssk, and Sku). The test results show that Zr-based bulk metallic glass has good milling machinability. It can obtain a low surface roughness value through the processing conditions and methods used in the test. The research content of this paper provides experimental basis for groove milling of Zr-based bulk metallic glass. At the same time, it also provides a strong test basis for the manufacture of Zr-based bulk metallic glass parts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
