Effect of pulse electromagnetic coupling treatment on thermal conductivity of WC-8Co cemented carbide

In this study, investigations were conducted focusing on the WC-8Co cemented carbide. A dry turning test of TC4 titanium alloy with carbide tool treated by pulsed electromagnetic coupling treatment (PEMCT) was conducted. Tool wear observed and analyzed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS). The thermal conductivity before after PEMCT measured Hotdisk analyzer. finite element software, DEFORM, used to simulate cutting process, stable temperature range obtained. high-temperature oxidation in muffle furnace study effect resistance This obtained tungsten cobalt results show that can reduce adhesive, diffusion, tools, thus, improving service life tools. improves diffusivity Moreover, conditions be improved.
