Study on the Manufacturing of Zirconia Cutting Square Tools by PIM and Hot Isostatic Pressing Process and Test Cutting

Abstract:

The purpose of present study was to increase productivity and to reduce the polution of dust for making of endmill by conventional method such as grinding process. The micro scale endmill manufactured by powder injection molding, the molding (green part) was debinded and sintered. After that decreasing the porosities of the parts sintered, HIP process was adapted. After HIP process the relative density was shown more than 99% of the tools sintered. Finally, the micro cutting experiment using manufactured tool by PIM and HIP were implemented for verifying the feasibility of the tool. The ware of zirconia micro tool was observed very small, but the concentricity is less than the conventional tool made by grinding process. This type of tool is adequate to use in rough milling.
