Abstract
Two PVD coated powder metallurgy high speed steel (PM-HSS) gear cutters were investigated when machining helical gears made from AISI 19MnCr5 steel with hardness between 140 and 180 HV. Machining trials were carried out with gear cutters coated with TiAlN (nano layers) and TiN (mono layer). Crater and flank wears were measured and analysed after all the machining trials. Analyses of the worn tools show that the TiAlN coated gear cutter performed better than the TiN coated gear cutter. This can be attributed to its nano layers and the higher hardness of the TiAlN coating. The dominant tool wear mechanisms were adhesion, abrasion, delaminating of the coating layer and chipping of the cutting edge.
