Abstract

In metal cutting process, selection of process parameters is important to enhance the machining performance and to improve the production rate. Tool life plays a vital role in deciding the overall productivity of manufacturing. In this paper, turning experiment is conducted to calculate the tool life of coated carbide insert in wet environment in a CNC lathe machine. The work material used was stainless steel SS316L. The tool life was calculated by industrial method that is by taking into account the number of jobs turned till it is declared fail, and then tool life is calculated by using theoretical method (Taylor’s tool life Equation). During the turning operation modes of tool failure were identified.
