abstract: the lifetime of a cutting tool is an important and determinant parameter for evaluating its performance. the amount of tool abrasion affects seriously dimensions and surface quality of the working piece so that one of the main factors to determine the lifetime of a tool is the level of its wearing. for this purpose, an abrasion standard is defined for each particular tool above which ...

The purpose of this research paper is to study the tool wear and surface roughness of AISI 8620 material using coated ceramic tool by turning process. Ceramic cutting tools have outstanding material hardness, resistance to high temperatures, wear resistance, chemical stability and hot hardness. Ceramic tool with Al2O3 + TiC (golden) coating was used to investigate the surface roughness and tool...

In this study, turning operation of Monel K500 copper-nickel super-alloy was evaluated. Ceramic cutting tools with two different cutting noses (conventional and wiper) were utilized. At first, the experimental tests were designed by using central composite design method. After implementation of the tests, the statistical models for output data (surface roughness, cutting force, and flank wear) ...

In this study, ultrasonic assisted machining (UAM) technique is applied in side-surface milling experiment for glass-ceramic workpiece material. The tungsten carbide cutting-tool with diamond coating is used in conjunction with two kinds of cooling/lubrication mediums such as water-soluble (WS) cutting fluid and minimum quantity lubricant (MQL). Full factorial process parameter combinations on ...

A judicious choice of insert material, tool geometry and cutting conditions can make hard turning produce better surfaces than grinding. In the present study, an attempt has been made to investigate the effect of cutting tool materials on cutting forces (feed force, thrust force and cutting force) in finish hard turning of AISI D2 cold work tool steel. In conclusion of the results obtained with...

An attempt has been made to investigate the machinability of zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) inserts while turning AISI 4340 steel. The insert was prepared by powder metallurgy process route and the machining experiments were performed based on Response Surface Methodology (RSM) design called Central Composite Design (CCD). The mathematical model of flank wear, cutting force and surface roughn...

The effect of cutting parameters and tool parameters on cutting forces and tool wear were investigated in high density fiberboard (HDF) peripheral up-milling using toughened ceramic cutting tools. The results showed that whether at low speed cutting or high speed cutting, the tangential forces Ft and normal forces Fr increased slowly with the increase of cutting length. The tangential forces Ft...
