Hard turning is gaining grounds for machining hardened steels as it has several benefits
over grinding. There are several issues, which should be understood and dealt with, to …

This paper presents an overview of the past research on Surface Integrity (SI) studies in the
context of machined components from a range of work materials including stainless steels …

The hard turning process with advanced cutting tool materials has several advantages over
grinding such as short cycle time, process flexibility, compatible surface roughness, higher …

Extremely high tool-wear rate in machining of NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) is one of
the major reasons for limiting the use of conventional machining processes on NiTi. The …

The paper presents the influence of the cutting zone cooling method on the wear of a cutting
tool made of sintered carbide P25 during the process of turning AISI 1045 steel. The …

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the machinability of hardened steels at different levels of
hardness and using a range of cutting tool materials. More specifically, the work was …

In many cases, hard machining remains an economic alternative for bearing parts
fabrication using hardened steels. The aim of this experimental investigation is to establish …

The wear mechanisms of cutting tools made of tungsten-carbide (WC), PCBN and PCD were
investigated using the tool life and temperature results available in the literature. For …

Hard turning with ceramic cutting tool has several benefits over grinding process such as
elimination of coolant, reduced processing costs, improved material properties, reduced …

Tool wear is one of the most important aspects in metal cutting, especially when machining
hardened steels. The present work shows the results of tool wear, cutting force and surface …
