The influence of changing the side angle of the cutting tool by wiper technology on the value of material ratio parameters of steel applied to marine pump shaft pins

Angular momentum pumps are very often used in cooling circuits of medium and high power engines, power plant boilers as well as bilge, ballast and firefighting installations. Such an extensive use of angular momentum pumps on board is connected with their numerous advantages. However, during operation the wear of marine hull, the rotor and shaft seals take place. The research attempts to increase the service life of shafts. The article presents the research results of pump shaft pins after finish lathing. The research was performed on a roller 60 mm in diameter made of X5CrNi18-10 steel. The finish tooling of pump shaft pins was carried out on a universal CDS 6250 BX-1000 centre lathe. The finish lathing process was carried out by means of Sandvik Coromant cutting tool with replaceable inserts. In the research of lathing, process used inserts with Wiper technology. During the lathing, the optimal cutting parameters were used for inserts: CCMT09T302WF, CCMT09T304WF and CCMT09T308WF. The cutting process was performed at side angle of 90° ± 3°. The process of lathing used cutting tool dynamometer DKM 2010. During the research, the effect of cutting tool geometric on surface roughness parameter Ra of steel applied to marine pumps shaft pins was determined. The article presents the research results of material ratio parameters. In addition provides an examples shaft surface profile analysis and material ratio. Measurement of surface roughness and material ratio parameters was performed by T8000 profilometer.
