When WC and group IV elements are added to Ti(C,N)-Ni substrate, microstructures of the cermet is changed. The microstructure gives direct effect on the property of the material. In this study, the amount of WC and group W elements of Ti(C,N) cermet tool was investigated. The composition of WC was changed from 5 to 20wt% to determine the effect of WC on the cutting performance of cermet tool. The more WC was added, the longer the tool life of the cermet tool was. The cermet with 20wt% WC showed the best fracture toughness. The effect of group W elements; ZrC, ZrN and HfC was also investigated by adding each of them to manufacture the cermet tool with fixed l4wt% WC composition. The cermet with 1wt% ZrC and 14wt% WC showed the best cutting performance among the investigated cermet tools.

The cutting performance of cermet cutting tools suggests the possibility in interrupted cutting for reliability test experimentation was performed repeatedly with $Ti(C_{0.7},N_{0.3})- l4WC-1ZrC-20Ni$ cermet tool machining SCM440. The flank wear of cermet cutting tool at given time condition is suitable for Normal distribution and Log normal distribution by Chi squared test.

In this study, the effect of WC and group IV elements on the cutting performance in turning is investigated. The composition of WC was changed from 5 to 20% to determine the effect of WC on the cutting performance of cermet tool. The more WC was added, the longer the tool life of the cermet tool was. The cermet with 20% WC showed the best fracture toughness. The cermet tool with 20% WC showed the best cutting performance among the various WC composition. The effect of group IV elements ; ZrC, ZrN and HfC was also investigated by adding each of them to manufacture the cermet tool with fixed 14% WC composition. The cermet with 1% group IV HfC and 14% WC showed the best cutting performance among the investigated cermet tools.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the difference in cutting characteristics of cermet, carbide and coated carbide tools in the similar application range via turning test of various conditions. The cermet and carbide tools in the range of ISO P10 grade were developed using optimum compositions with a view to obtaining a high toughness and hardness by PM process. First mechanical properties were characterized on these tools. Experimental results of wear behaviour and resistance to fracturing were presented and discussed in the turning of gray cast iron and alloy steels by cermet, carbide and coated carbide tools. The coated carbide tool shows similar cutting performance compared to the cermet, while the cermet has better combination of wear resistance and toughness of high speed (V=500m/min) cutting in comparison with carbide and coated carbide tools, and also shows a potentiality for cast iron cutting. Fe adhesive behaviour on the tools and surface roughness of workpieces were explained by chemical affinity between tools and workpieces.

In this study, Cermet Reamers for planet carrier was manufactured and the machining characteristics were analyzed through processing experiment. Cermet reamer with ∅14, ∅15, ∅18, and ∅21mm was used and machining characteristics were compared and analyzed by observing tool wear, machining hole dimensions and surface roughness. In the flank wear of the tool, the result is less than 0.2mm, which is the target value for each tool size. The experimental results of the machining hole dimensions show the results of the process control range of 3/100 or less according to the size of the tool. Also, the surface roughness measurement result showed a value of less than $0.5{\mu}m$ in the process control range for each tool size. As a result of observing the experimental results of each ∅, the results satisfied the process standard in both the tool wear, the machining hole dimension and the surface roughness.

This paper aimes to clarify the effects of tool geometry on the tool life in machining of STS 304. The main conclusions obtained were as follows. The lift of TiN coated cermet tool was the longest, exhibiting shorter life in the order of P2O, cermet, TiCN coated carbide and TiAIN coated carbide tools. S-type tool showed the best performance of all tools used in this tests due to preventing the boundary wear of the side cutting edge.

Chip breaker of cutting tool is an important feature to enhance cutting performance. Powder injection molding process was used to produce a triangular-shape cermet grooving insert which has three chip breakers. Attrition milled cermet powders were mixed with wax-based binder system in continuous twin screw extruder. Three-plate injection mold with slide cores was used to produce injection-molded parts. After molding, solvent and thermal debinding was carried out. Sintering was conducted in a batch furnace with a graphite heater. The sintered parts satisfy the requirements of dimensional tolerances and material properties.

The quality and productivity in machining automobile parts are influenced by various factors such as cutting conditions, vibration, and used tool. To improve the quality and productivity of the automobile parts(torsion beam), lots of research on the evaluation of tool life and control of surface roughness has been required. Therefore, the width of flank wear, cutting force, and surface roughness are monitored to analyse the characteristics of tool wear and surface roughness at different tools. This experimental investigation is mainly focused on the characteristics of the tool wear, tool life and surface roughness in multi-insert milling of automobile parts(torsion beam) by using uncoated tungsten carbide tool(WC), TiN coated tool, and cermet tool.

It is a feature of primary importance for a backing material for circular saw blades having teeth which are tipped with cermet, that the steel has not a too high hardenability in order that the backing material shall not be completely hardened through brazing, welding or grinding, etc. in connection with the finishing operation in the manufacturing of circular saw blade. It is believed that V-(2Mo+W) added steel from this point of view had best conditions. Using V-(2Mo+W) added backing steel, the tool failure can be effectively prevented due to superior damping performance.
