Abstract
Dry cutting tests of hypereutectic Al-Si alloys were made using three types of carbide tools (P10, M20 and K10), CBN tool and sintered diamond tool. P10 carbide tool heavily wears with cutting time regardless of Si content in the alloys. K10 tool is only available for cutting Al-16 to 19%Si alloys at low cutting speeds. M20 tool has an intermediate feature and is unavailable. CBN tool shows light tool wear and is available for low speed cutting. Wear of the tool remarkably proceeds at accelerated cutting speeds because of a decrease in binding force of the alumina binder in CBN tool at elevated temperatures. Sintered diamond tool shows better wear resistance than CBN and carbide tools and is ready for use.
