Study on Tool Life and Tool Wear Mechanisms in Dry Cutting Pure Iron

Abstract:

Pure iron is a kind of high plasticity and toughness material. In the process of cutting pure iron, the tool wear is very serious. In this paper, three kinds of cutting tools KC5010, K313 and 1105 are used in the cutting pure iron process and the tool wear tests in dry cutting condition with different cutting parameters have been carried out. According to the results, the tool wear mechanisms and tool life of three kinds of cutting tools have been compared and analyzed. It is concluded that the tool life of K313 is better than KC5010 and 1105 and the three kinds of tool mechanisms are primarily adhesion wear, diffusion wear and oxidation wear.
