There is a difference in machining by the cutting tool with defined geometry and undefined geometry. That is one of the reasons of implementation of hard turning into the machining process. In current manufacturing processes is hard turning many times used as a fine finish operation. It has many advantages – machining by single point cutting tool, high productivity, flexibility, ability to produce parts with complex shapes at one clamping. Very important is to solve machined surface quality. There is a possibility to use wiper geometry in hard turning process to achieve 3 – 4 times lower surface roughness values. Cutting parameters influence cutting process as well as cutting tool geometry. It is necessary to take into consideration cutting force components as well. Issue of the use of wiper geometry has been still insufficiently researched.

Coated Carbide Tools

AISI D6 (hardness 65 HRC) is one of the hard-to-cut steel alloys and commonly used in mould and die making industries. In general, CBN and PCBN tools are used for machining hardened steel but its higher cost makes the use for limited applications. However, the usefulness of carbide tool with selective coatings is the best substitute having comparable tool life, and in terms of cost is approximately one-tenth of CBN tool. The present study highlights a detailed analysis on machinability investigation of hardened AISI D6 alloy die steel using newly developed SPPP-AlTiSiN coated carbide tools in finish dry turning operation. In addition, a comparative assessment has been performed based on the effectiveness of cutting tool performance of nanocomposite coating of AlTiN deposited by hyperlox PVD technique and a coating of AlTiSiN deposited by scalable pulsed power plasma (SPPP) technique. The required number of machining trials under varied cutting conditions (speed, depth of cut, feed) were based on L16 orthogonal array design which investigated the crater wear, flank wear, surface roughness, chip morphology, and cutting force in hard turning. Out of the two cutting tools, newly-developed nanocomposite (SPPP-AlTiSiN) coated carbide tool promises an improved surface finish, minimum cutting force, longer tool life due to lower value of crater & flank wears, and considerable improvement in tool life (i.e., by 47.83%). At higher cutting speeds, the crater wear length and flank wear increases whereas the surface roughness, crater wear width and cutting force decreases. Chip morphology confirmed the formation of serrated type saw tooth chips.

Edge Preparation

The paper investigates the effects of cutting edge preparation on cutting force, cutting temperature and tool wear for hard turning. An optimized characterization approach is proposed and five kinds of cemented tools with different edge preparation are adopted in the simulations by DEFROM-2DTM. The results show that both the forces and cutting temperature on the rake face climb up and then declines with the increasing of factor K (Sγ/Sα). While the temperature on flank face decrease with the increasing of the factor K. When the cutting conditions are identical, flank wear reduces while crater wear exacerbates before easing with the increasing of the factor K. The simulation results will provide valuable suggestions for optimization of cutting edge preparation for hard turning in order to obtain excellent machining quality and longer tool life.
