Abstract

Aim: This research is about comparing the performance of poly-crystalline diamond (PCD) insert and uncoated cemented carbide insert for improving the material removal rate (MRR) in CNC turning. Materials and Methods: The material investigated in this research was SS316L. PCD insert was set as the experimental group and uncoated insert was set as the control group. The cutting parameters employed in this process were cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut. Totally 27 samples per group were machined by using the selected parameters. Results: The mean MRR value obtained for the PCD tool is 0.22593 g/s, whereas it is 0.07600 g/s for the uncoated tool. The significance value obtained among the experimental group and control group is 0.000 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Within the limits of this study, the outcome of the research shows that MRR is more when the specimen is machined by PCD insert than machined by uncoated insert.
