FRICTION AND HEAT IN MACHINING
Friction due to sliding of chip over tool face
Heat is generated in the region of tool point due to friction and
it controls the rate of tool wear, cutting speed and material
removal rate.

TOOL LIFE
Tool life is defined as the effective cutting time
between resharpening.
The Taylor’s equation for tool life is
V Tn
=C
 
where,
V = cutting velocity in m/min.
T = tool life in minutes
n = a constant based on the tool material
C = a constant based on the tool and work

PPROPERTIES OF CUTTING TOOL MATERIALS
 
 Wear Resistance, necessary to enable the cutting tool
to retain its shape and cutting efficiency
         Hot hardness, to retain the cutting ability and
hardness that may be lost due to high temperature
developed at the tool –chip interface
        Toughness, to withstand the force due to cutting and
to absorb shocks and to prevent chipping of the fine
cutting edge.

MMATERIALS USED FOR COATING
TThe most commonly used materials for coating are
1.      Titanium carbide (TiC)
2.      Titanium nitride (TiN)
3.      Titanium carbonitride (TiCN)
4.      Aluminium oxide (Al2
O3
)
5.      Aluminium oxynitride (ALON)
 
Maximum tolerable temperature for different
coating materials
Advantages
 Coating acts as a diffusion barrier
 Increased hot hardness of tool
 Reduced welding of chip on tool face
 Low specific heat and thermal conductivity – low
interface temperature
 Reduced built up edges
 Reduced tendency to form comb-cracks and plastic
deformation
 Wear reducing effect even when the coated layer is
interrupted
