Abstract

Carbide tools with mono/multilayer coating such as TiN, TiC, TiAIN, TiB2 and Al2O3 on inserts of WC-Co generated key success for machining of ferrous materials without coolant/lubrication. So far dry machining of aluminium, manufacturing industries such as automobile and aerospace engineering are facing considerable challenges. Exploration of correct cutting tool for machining of aluminium still persists in the present day context. This paper experimentally investigated the affinity and performance of different cutting tool materials available in local tool shopping center along with the diamond coated tool insert prepared and developed in our own HFCVD reactor for machining of aluminium in dry condition. Finally it is revealed that, due to the low chemical affinity, small magnitude of cutting force, chemical inertness and remarkable anti-welding characteristics, diamond coated tool displayed improved performance as compared to other tools.
