CBN inserts for finishing automotive gears after heat
treatment
Automobile gear material and processing technology
The automobile gears are subjected to the heat treatment process
to obtain better performance.The gears are used as the
transmission and speed adjustment of the power in the mechanical
device,which not only plays an important role in the
automotive industry, but also consumes a considerable amount.

How to choose the cutting tools for Processing technology of automobile gear
After the heat treatment, the automotive gears need to be finished,
and the required dimensions and precisionof the drawings are
obtained. Therefore, it is very important to select the tool material to
finishing gear.

The selectionof suitable high-quality tools not only brings the
completionof automotive gear parts, but also greatly improves
work efficiencyand saves processing costs.
At present, the cutting tools that can be used for finishing
automotive gears according to their hardness have traditional
carbide tools, ceramic tools and CBN tools.

Below HRC45
Traditional carbide
tool
The hardness of the carbide tool itself is
low,machining high-hardness automobile
gears may cause severe wear or failure
of machining.
Above HRC45 Ceramic tools
&CBN tools
Ceramic tools have good
thermochemical stability, but less than
the toughness and hardness of CBN

Above HRC50 Halnn CBN tools
Halnn CBN tools use non-metal
(ceramic) as a binder, which increases
the toughness compared with the
traditional CBN tool. not only high
hardness, wear resistance and impact
resistance, but also machining accuracy.

Halnn has developed three CBN tools for finishing automotive
gears, namely BN-H10 grade CBN tools,BN-H20 grade CBN tools

and BN-S20 grade CBN tools Among them, BN-H10 grade and
BN-H20 grade belong to welded grade CBN tools, the BN-S20
grade belongs to the solid CBN tools.
The specific cutting parameters are shown in the table below.
It is divided by hardness: BN-S20 grade CBN tools >BN-H10
