Abstract
The aim of the experiment was to study the machinability of porous metal foams formed by reduction of metal oxides during sintering. The analysis focused on the machining process of metal foams with respect to their porosity and mechanical properties. The factors investigated included the geometry of the specimens, the surface condition depending on the machining parameters (milling) and the porosity of the metal foam. The metallic porous structure was obtained as a result of sintering the mixture of iron based powders ASC 100.29 and DISTALOY SE (DIST SE) with porosity from 67,9 % (SE 1) to 77,8 % (SE 2) for ASC base powder and 75,7 % to 80.3 % for DISTALOY SE were used.
