Abstract
The present work investigates application feasibility of PVD TiN/TiCN/TiN coated cermet and CVD Al2O3/TiCN coated SiAlON for dry machining of Inconel 825 superalloy. Machining performance is interpreted through cutting force magnitude, tool-tip temperature, and mechanisms of tool wear. Results are compared to that of CVD multi-layer TiN/TiCN/Al2O3/TiN coated WC-Co tool. It is evidenced that SiAlON tool generates lower cutting force but experiences higher tool-tip temperature than other two counterparts. Apart from abrasion and adhesion, carbide tool witnesses coating peeling and ploughing. In contrast, SiAlON tool suffers from inexorable chipping and notching. Wear pattern of cermet tool seems less severe than carbide and SiAlON. Chip's underside surface morphology appears relatively better in case of cermet tool.
