Abstract

The temperature at the tool flank, which has an effect on the tool life and on the machined surface integrity, is measured using a two-color pyrometer with a fused fiber coupler. This pyrometer makes it possible to measure the temperature of a very small object without emissivity affecting the results. A CBN tool is used as the cutting tool. A high carbon chromium bearing steel, a chromium molybdenum steel and a quenched carbon steel are used as work materials. The temperature of the tool is highly affected by the cutting speed, but the influence of the depth of cut and the feed rate is not so great. In the cutting of the high carbon chromium bearing steel, the temperature is 800 °C at a cutting speed of 100 m/min and increases with the increase of cutting speed, reaching 950 °C at 300 m/min. There is a close relation between the tool temperature and the hardness of the work material. The influence of cutting speed on tool wear is considerable.
