Abstract
Zirconium is widely applied in industrial area. In this study, the exeperiments are performed to investigate the differences in cutting characteristics of zirconium coated material which deposited on cutting tool using physical vapor deposition(PVD). For comparison, TiN coated tool is used to compare with zirconium coated tool. Experimental results were compared for tool wear, surface roughness and cutting force. The tool wear of PVD coated bites is affected by the various cutting conditions. This new stuff 'zirconium coated tool' wears $33\%$ less and improves surface roughness $23\%$ more in various cutting conditions. Cutting force is analyzed by using various workpiece, and the research strongly confirms that 'zirconium' remains better condition than 'titanium'. As a result 'zirconium' coated tool can be performed far better than 'titanium' coated tool on metal cutting.
