The development of manufacturing technology is mostly given by economics, environmental trends and the development of cutting materials and machine tools. Manufacturing is a significant part of the worldwide economy. Machining (material removal processes) represents major part of production costs. This paper yield inquiries into the hard and precise milling with a focus on force effects in experimental machining, tool wear and final surface qualities (roughness, micro hardness). The precision machining of hardened steel differs from conventional machining in terms of the hardness of the workpiece materials and the cutting tool materials that are required. Hard materials are characterized by high hardness (> 45 HRC) and abrasiveness. Machining processes require cutting tools of much higher hardness and also higher resistance of the abrasive wear. Recently developed cubic boron nitride (CBN) and coated sintered carbides cutting tools are considered to have the ability of cutting such as steel. CBN cutting tools show good performance during machining of the hardened steel because of their hot hardness and good fracture toughness.

Some engineering materials have excellent performances, but the machining of these materials is a problem. It is very inadequate to meet machining requirement only using traditional cutting tool materials. Therefore, exploring the machinability of difficult-to-machine materials and applying appropriate cutting tool materials have drawn much attention in metal cutting industry for guarantied product quality and productivity. Cubic boron nitride (CBN) has been recognized as one of the most suitable cutting tool materials due to its high hardness, high wear resistance, high chemical inertness, and excellent chemical stability in high temperature. Research on various aspects of CBN cutting performances has been conducted in recent years. This paper presents the progress on machining difficult-to-machine materials using CBN cutting tools.

Die Mikrozerspanung ist eine Kerntechnologie bei der Fertigung von Mikrospritzgussformen. Die hohen Ansprüche an die geometrische Genauigkeit und Oberflächenrauheit erfordern den Einsatz hochfester Werkstoffe. Jedoch unterliegen aktuelle Fräswerkzeuge bei der Mikrozerspanung einem hohen Verschleiß. Einen Lösungsansatz bietet der erfolgreich in der Makrozerspanung eingesetzte Schneidstoff kubisch-kristallines Bornitrid (cBN). Ziel der Untersuchungen war es daher, detaillierte Informationen zur Bearbeitung von gehärtetem Stahl mit cBN-Mikrofräswerkzeugen bereitstellen zu können.   Micro-cutting is a core technology for producing micro-injection moulds. High demands on geometric accuracy and surface roughness require high-strength materials. However, current milling tools for micro-cutting suffer from excessiv tool wear. A solution is offered by cutting materials based on cubic Boron Nitride (cBN), which have been used successfully in macro-machining. This article contains detailed information on the machining of hardened steel with micro-milling tools and cutting edges made of cBN.

Abstract PCBN (Polycrystalline Cubic Boron Nitride) cutting tools have become very familiar in the industries for cutting hardened steel parts and the demand for PCBN tools is growing rapidly. One of the reasons for this is the trend of replacing grinding processes with cutting. Although the trend of processing is to use more cutting, there still remains grinding in many processing fields. High precision machining and high speed interrupted machining have been such fields. In this study it has been verified that a novel cutting method can be applied to high precision machining with the smoothness of Rz 0.8 μm and that a new PCBN has sufficient reliability against tool failure in high speed (< 250m/min) interrupted cutting. Thus cutting has become applicable to those machining and the trend of replacement of grinding with cutting will be enhanced. Those new technologies will be introduced in this report.

High sharpness, abrasion resistance, superior ductility, and processability are required in cutting tool materials application. Used 304(0Cr18Ni9) austenitic stainless steel as cladding and 440(7Cr17) martensitic stainless steel as core layer to produce excellently combined stainless steel plate by hot-rolled bonding in this investigation as well as researched various heat treatment processes. The results indicated that the core layer has high hardness and the cladding layer has tiny and uniform microstructure by the method of heating at 10501070°C for 15 minutes, water-cooling , then tempering at 200°C.

The key technology of the cutter that cutting hardened steel was researched by high speed milling machining method. At first ,three cutting elements of high speed milling machining was narratived, and we can obtain the principle of selection of parameters of cutting velocity, feed per tooth, longitudinal cutting depth and cutting width of axial, etc. With HSM ,we discussed the performance and selection points of tool material of coated cemented carbide, ceramic, cubic boron nitride , synthetic diamond and so on, and obtained the effect of the main tool geometry for the cutting process in HSM. The second, it analysised type and reason of damage of high speed cutting tools, and introduced three detection methods of tools. Finally, it was summarized and concluded.

The main objective of the comparison of precision hard cutting and abrasive processes in terms of the surface texture is to facilitate the decision whether to possibly replace grinding operations by hard turning with low feed rates. In this study, hard turning operations with Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) cutting tools and grinding operations using electrocorundum Al2O3 and CBN wheels were performed in order to generate surfaces with the Sa roughness parameter of about 0.2 μm. 3D roughness parameters and the frequency, fractal and motif characteristics were analyzed.

On this Phase I SBIR project, Creare’s overall objective was to develop and transition a technology that will increase cutting tool life and reduce overall production costs of machining ceramic matrix composite (CMC) materials. We successfully demonstrated the feasibility of machining CMC materials using the Laser-Assisted Machining (LAM) approach, which utilizes a laser to preheat a thin layer of the CMC material prior to its removal using conventional machine tools. In particular, we demonstrated that the cutting forces were reduced by as much as 40% compared to conventional machining processes. This reduction enables increased processing speeds which decrease cycle times and overall processing costs. Additionally, we developed and validated a comprehensive thermal model for the edge machining of CMCs. When combined with the experimental results, the temperatures near the material removal interface for the optimal LAM condition were predicted.

Abstract Poly-crystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN) is one of the hardest material. Generally, so hard materials could not be machined by conventional machining methods. Therefore, for this purpose, advanced machining methods have been designed. Rotary ultrasonic machining (RUM) is included among them. RUM is based on abrasive removing mechanism of ultrasonic vibrating diamond particles, which are bonded on active part of rotating tool. It is suitable especially for machining hard and brittle materials (such as glass and ceramics). This contribution investigates this advanced machining method during machining of PCBN.
