Abstract
Titanium (Ti) has been used as a medical application such as an artificial bone or a dental implant. Generation of textured surface on the dental implant is effective to improve the fusion characteristics of the living body cell. However, it is difficult to machine Ti, because the tool wear is extremely high and precision texturing by cutting is very difficult. In this study, the tool wear and surface roughness characteristics of Ti were tested and the tool materials such as single crystalline diamond, cBN, and WC were compared. Finally cutting tests of micro textured patterns were tried to generate and feasibility of the micro tool for the texturing was tested.
