Hard turning of harder material differs from conventional turning because of its larger specific cutting forces requirements. The beneficial effects of hard turning can be offset by excessive temperature generation which causes rapid tool wear or premature tool failure if the brittle cutting tools required for hard turning are not used properly. Under these considerations, the concept of high-pressure coolant (HPC) presents itself as a possible solution for high speed machining in achieving slow tool wear while maintaining cutting forces at reasonable levels, if the high pressure cooling parameters can be strategically tuned. This paper deals with an experimental investigation of some aspects of the turning process applied on hardened steel (HRC48) using coated carbide tool under high-pressure coolant, comparing it with dry cut. The results indicate that the use of high-pressure coolant leads to reduced surface roughness, delayed tool flank wear, and lower cutting temperature, while also having a minimal effect on the cutting forces.

The present paper is an experimental investigation on the machinability of powder metallurgy (PM) nickel-based superalloy during drilling using high-speed steel (M42) drills. The effect of machining parameters on the cutting force, cutting temperature and tool wear were investigated during the experimentation. The effect of machining parameters on the tool wear was examined through SEM micrographs. The research work findings will also provide useful economic machining solution by utilizing economical high-speed steel drills during drilling processing of powder metallurgy nickel-based superalloy, which is otherwise usually machined by costly coated carbide tools or CBN tools. The present approach and results will be helpful for understanding the machinability of powder metallurgy nickel-based superalloy during drilling for the manufacturing engineers.


In various machining processes, the vibration signals are studied for tool condition monitoring often referred as wear monitoring. It is essential to overcome unpredicted machining trouble and to improvise the efficiency of the machine. Tool wear is a vital problem in materials such as nickel based alloys as they have high hardness ranges. Though they have high hardness, a nickel based alloy Inconel 718 with varying HRC (51, 53, and 55), is opted as work material for hard turning process in this work. Uncoated and coated carbide tools are employed as cutting tools. Taguchi’s L9 orthogonal array is considered by taking hardness, speed, feed and depth of cut as four input parameters, the number of experiments and the combinations of parameters for every run is obtained. The vibration signals are recorded at various stages of cutting, till the tool failure is observed. Taking this vibration signal data as input to ANOVA and Grey relation analysis (GRA) which categorizes the optimal and utmost dominant features such as Root Mean Square (RMS), Crest Factor (CF), Skewness (Sk), Kurtosis (Ku), Absolute Deviation (AD), Mean, Standard Deviation (SD), Variance, peak, Frequency and Time in the tool wear process

Tool wear phenomena during the machining of titanium alloys are very complex. Severe adhesive interaction at the tool chip interface, especially at low cutting speeds, leads to intensive Built Up Edge (BUE) formation. Additionally, a high cutting temperature causes rapid wear in the carbide inserts due to the low thermal conductivity of titanium alloys. The current research studies the effect of AlTiN and CrN PVD coatings deposited on cutting tools during the rough turning of a Ti6Al4V alloy with severe BUE formation. Tool wear characteristics were evaluated in detail using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and volumetric wear measurements. Chip morphology analysis was conducted to assess the in situ tribological performance of the coatings. A high temperature–heavy load tribometer that mimics machining conditions was used to analyze the frictional behavior of the coatings. The micromechanical properties of the coatings were also investigated to gain a better understanding of the coating performance. It was demonstrated that the CrN coating possess unique micromechanical properties and tribological adaptive characteristics that minimize BUE formation and significantly improve tool performance during the machining of the Ti6Al4V alloy.

This paper presents the additional work of the previous research in order to verify the previously obtained cutting condition by using the different cutting tool geometries. The effects of the cutting conditions with the dry cutting are monitored to obtain the proper cutting condition for the plain carbon steel with the coated carbide tool based on the consideration of the surface roughness and the tool life. The dynamometer is employed and installed on the turret of CNC turning machine to measure the in-process cutting forces. The in-process cutting forces are used to analyze the cutting temperature, the tool wear and the surface roughness. The experimentally obtained results show that the surface roughness and the tool wear can be well explained by the in-process cutting forces. Referring to the criteria, the experimentally obtained proper cutting condition is the same with the previous research except the rake angle and the tool nose radius.

AbstractNowadays, finishing operation in hardened steel parts which have wide industrial applications is done by hard turning. Cubic boron nitride (CBN) inserts, which are expensive, are used for hard turning. The cheaper coated carbide tool is seen as a substitute for CBN inserts in the hardness range (45–55 HRC). However, tool wear in a coated carbide tool during hard turning is a significant factor that influences the tolerance of machined surface. An online tool wear estimation system is essential for maintaining the surface quality and minimizing the manufacturing cost. In this investigation, the cutting tool wear estimation using artificial neural network (ANN) is proposed. AISI4140 steel hardened to 47 HRC is used as a work piece and a coated carbide tool is the cutting tool. Experimentation is based on full factorial design (FFD) as per design of experiments. The variations in cutting forces and vibrations are measured during the experimentation. Based on the process parameters and measured parameters an ANN-based tool wear estimator is developed. The wear outputs from the ANN model are then tested. It was observed that as the model using ANN provided quite satisfactory results, and that it can be used for online tool wear estimation.
