Abstract
The wear behavior and surface integrity of carbide tools during high-speed machining have been widely investigated; however, those of cermet tools have not been investigated in depth. Therefore, this study compares the tool life and wear behavior of cermet and carbide tools during high-speed turning of 18CrNiMo7-6 steel and compares the surface integrity of the workpieces acquired under different wear states. Results show that the tool life of the cermet tools improved by up to 5.6 times compared to the carbide tools. Additionally, as the cutting speed (v) increases, the tool life of the cermet tools increases by 83 %, whereas that of the carbide tools decreases by 58.3 %. The primary wear mode of the cermet tools was oxidative wear for v = 100 and 160 m/min, whereas that of the carbide tools was coating peeling. However, at v = 220 m/min, both tools exhibited coating peeling and notch wear. Moreover, surface roughness, surface microhardness, and residual compressive stress increased with the progression of tool wear. These findings reveal that cermet tools are more suitable for high-speed turning and are superior to carbide tools in tool life and machined surface integrity, thereby ensuring high-quality machining and improved machining efficiency.
期刊介绍:
Wear journal is dedicated to the advancement of basic and applied knowledge concerning the nature of wear of materials. Broadly, topics of interest range from development of fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of wear to innovative solutions to practical engineering problems. Authors of experimental studies are expected to comment on the repeatability of the data, and whenever possible, conduct multiple measurements under similar testing conditions. Further, Wear embraces the highest standards of professional ethics, and the detection of matching content, either in written or graphical form, from other publications by the current authors or by others, may result in rejection.
