Metal cutting is a necessary operation in any production industry. Rapid production has
become a necessity as a result of recent trends in high-speed machining and automation …

With the introduction of novel super cutting hard tool materials the innovative hard part
turning process has cogently replaced by conventional grinding operations. Coatings have a …

Machining of hard to cut materials such as austenitic stainless steel presents a challenge
due the thermo-mechanical properties of this material, which contribute to intensive buildup …

Dry machining of aluminum (Al) 2024 alloy has been performed with four different cutting
inserts (cemented carbide, titanium nitride (TiN) coated, titanium aluminum nitride (TiAlN) …

The machining process evolution has been accompanied by the improvement of tool
performance, being this mainly due to the development of thin coatings, mono and multi …

High-speed machining of austenitic stainless steel normally causes significant tool damage
and generates reduced tool life. In this paper, five AlTiN PVD coatings with different Al/Ti …

This work investigates the wear characteristics of two different coating systems deposited on
cemented carbide tools and used in the finish turning of an Inconel DA718 aerospace alloy …

To obtain uniform surface roughness of the complex cutting edge of the cemented carbide
insert in the polishing process, a novel method, brush tool–assisted shear-thickening …

In this study, a novel bi-layer AlTiN PVD coating was deposited on a tungsten carbide
substrate. The bi-layer coating, with a total thickness of 3.5 μm consists of a 1.0 μm Al 60 Ti …

PVD-coated tools are used mainly in metal-cutting operations. During the machining
processes, the tool's temperature can rise to 1000° C. For this reason, it is important to …
