For the renovation and/or improvement of the surface properties of machine elements, hard facing is often used. Hard structures obtained in layers or by heat treatment achieve a hardness of up to 68 hardness (HRC) or even more. The grinding of these surfaces demands the use of processing fluids and causes sometimes changes in the surface layers structure. Hard turning can replace grinding when certain requirements are fulfilled, particularly tough machining system. Hard deposits of two weld-on materials on a sample of steel grade S235JRG1 have been turned using cemented carbide inserts with a TiAlN coating of PVD type. The surface roughness measurements along with the observation of insert wear have been conducted to find proper machining parameters and conditions for this application. Cutting inserts manufacturer guidelines for special application could be insufficient or even not provided. Besides that, it is necessary in the experiments to take into account and examine the cutting ceramics and cubic boron nitride (CBN)/polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN).

(0, 5, 10, 15, 20) vol% CBN-WC/Co composites were consolidated by ball milling and the following hot-pressing sintering method. WC, Co and CBN powders were used as the starting materials. The effects of the CBN content on the density, microstructure and mechanical properties of CBN-WC/Co composites were investigated. The results showed that the CBN content had remarkable influence on the microstructure and mechanical properties of CBN-WC/Co Composites. With the increasing content of CBN, the density decrease, while Vickers hardness and flexural strength increased initially to the maximum values and then decreased at CBN 10 vol%. When 10 vol% CBN-WC/Co powders were hot-pressing sintered at 1350°C and 20MPa for 90 min, an excellent Vickers hardness of 19.8GPa was achieved, combining a flexural strength of 682MPa.

This work compares the effect of cubic boron nitride (CBN) and multilayer (TiCN+Al2O3+TiN) coated tungsten carbide (WC) tools during the turning of spheroidal graphite (SG) nodular iron. Nodular irons have more ductility which is required in mechanical components that demand high fatigue resistance like crankshafts, cam shafts, bearing caps and clutch housings. The impact of various process parameters like the depth of cut, cutting speed and feed on the surface roughness (Ra) of SG iron is studied and optimized using the response surface model. The chip morphology is also discussed for evaluation of the quality of the turned surface. The experimental outcomes reveal that the WC tool offers a high surface finish at the optimal combination of the cutting speed at 102 meter/minute, feed at 0.051 millimeter/revolution and depth of cut at 0.5 millimeter and that, for the CBN insert, at 245 meter/minute of cutting speed, 0.051 millimeter/revolution of feed and 0.75 millimeter of depth of cut.
