Cemented Carbide Tools

The conditions of wear from the faces of cemented carbide cutting tools are described. The particular conditions on the top surface of a cutting tool where the thin ribbon, or chip, of metal with a freshly exposed surface flows in contact with the tool over a relatively long path, lead to the generation of high temperatures at the friction surface. Examination of the worn top surface of tools of two types, one consisting of tungsten carbide and cobalt and the other of tungsten carbide, titanium carbide and cobalt, have shown that in cutting steel an alloy is formed between the steel and the tungsten carbide at temperatures of ca. 1300° C and this leads to very rapid wear. Grains of a titanium-tungsten carbide solid solution which are present in cemented carbides containing titanium carbide resist alloy formation with the steel at these high temperatures. The presence of titanium carbide greatly reduces the rate of wear. Consideration of the phenomena of wear on such tools presents a picture of the type of temperature gradient in the tool near the friction surface.

Performance data were obtained for tungsten carbide, titanium carbide, and oxide tools in the finish turning of C-30 gray iron. Characteristics of typical wear patterns were examined in relation to their effects on cutting force and surface finish. Using both surface finish and tool wear as tool life criteria, the comparative performance of these tools was evaluated. The oxide tool was superior to the carbide tools except at low cutting speeds. The influence of depth of cut and of a prehoned land on the cutting edge was also studied.
