Some Researches Regarding the Durability of the Metal Carbide Cutting Inserts Coated with Ti Thin Layers

Abstract:

It is known that the unevenness of the cutting depths during the cutting processes, the different physico-mechanical characteristics of the processed materials, values as well as the parameters variation of the working regimes can lead a wear more or less pronounced of the used cutting tools. The lubricant presence in the cutting area may contribute to the friction and thermal field values reduction, affecting the wear processes. It can be said therefore that, the tools durability is influenced by all these factors, which requires decisions and actions to reduce the tools or/and the cutting inserts wear processes. In case of the cutting inserts are known many researches concerning their coverage with material (ions) by vacuum deposition, using methods as: electric arc evaporation, pulverization, ionic plating and chemical vapor deposition. Researches carried out by authors had consisted in making titanium deposition, in thin layer, on the cutting inserts surface in their hardening purpose. The results obtained consisted in a substantial increase of the durability for the used tools in cutting processes in report to those, whose cutting inserts were coated with titanium.
