Abstract
To provide guidance for the tool materials selection in the machining of high-strength steels, this article outlines the application of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method for the cutting performance evaluation of cemented carbide tools, ceramic tools, and cermet tools. The results indicate that cermets with the best comprehensive cutting performance are chosen as the optimum tool materials for the machining of high-strength steels. Moreover, the severe adhesion wear characteristics of cemented carbide tools are detrimental to the surface quality of workpieces. The obvious crater wear and furrow-like scratches caused mainly by abrasive wear, as well as adhesive wear can shorten the life of ceramic tools. The sharp cutting edge and good wear resistance of cermet tools are not only beneficial to the machined surface quality of workpieces, but also prolong the tool life. The analysis of tool wear proves the reliability and accuracy of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method.
