In this study, presintered low purity alumina ceramics were machined with various tools to clarify the effects of the tool material, cutting condition and tool geometry on machinability. The main conclusions obtained were as follows. (a)The wear of tungsten carbide tool becomes smaller with the increase of the feed and clearance angle, and with the decrease of rake angle, especially exhibiting considerably smaller wear with both the decrease of rake angle and the increase of clearance angle. (b) So far as turning the ceramic presintered at low temperature, the diamond tool shows the best performance with higher feed. (c) The effect on the tool wear of the feed, clearance angle and rake angle becomes smaller in turning the ceramic presintered at higher temperature. (d) The tool wear is not severely affected by the depth of cut.

Ceramic, PCD and CBN tools are available for the difficult-to-cut-materials such as hardened carbon tool steel, stainless steel, Inconel 718 and etc.. Ceramic toolsare likely to be chipped and abruptly broken before the appearance of normal wear in turning. Ther2efore ceramic tools are suitable for continuous cut in turning not for intermittent in milling. In this study, TiN/TiCN multi-layer coated ceramic tools were found to restrain the chipping, breaking and early fracture and to increase the critical cutting speed owing to TiN/TiCN multi-layer coating in Arc Ion Plating of PVD method.

Dense $Al_2$O$_3$-30%TiC and Si$_3$N$_4$ ceramic tool materials with various grain size were produced by sintering-HIP treatment and by gas-pressure sintering. The fracture toughness was measured by indentation fracture and indentation strength method for both ceramics with various grain size. The effect of the grain size on the fracture toughness was evaluated, and the correlation between fracture toughness and mechanical properties such as hardness, Young\`s modulus and flexural strength of these ceramic were also investigated. The highest fracture toughness of around 6.7 MPa.m(sup)1/2 was obtained in Si$_3$N$_4$ ceramics with grain size of 1.58${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. With a larger grain size of $Al_2$O$_3$-30%TiC and Si$_3$N$_4$ ceramics, the fracture toughness was generally increased. The increased fracture toughness of these ceramic also improved the flexural strength although the hardness decreased considerably. Similar results were obtained in grain size and mechanical properties on both $Al_2$O$_3$-30%TiC and Si$_3$N$_4$ ceramic tool materials.

This study is performed to develop the Si$_3$N$_4$ based ceramic inserts. Si$_3$N$_4$with addition of SiC and A1$_2$O$_3$ is investigated to determine the possibility to be a new tool. The tool life of Si$_3$N$_4$ insert with more than 20wt% SiC is shorter than commercial Si$_3$N$_4$ insert during machining both heat treated SCM440 and gray cast iron. Even though SiC has higher hardness than Si$_3$N$_4$, its chemical affinity to the iron on high temperature may causes deteriorat ion of tool life. To the contrary, Si$_3$N$_4$insert with A1$_2$O$_3$ shows increase of tool life up to 300% compared to the commercial Si$_3$N$_4$insert. It may attribute to the high temperature stability of A1$_2$O$_3$. Further study will be focused on the optimization of ceramic inserts with the composition of Si$_3$N$_4$and A1$_2$O$_3$.

In this study, ultrasonic vibration tool designed and made by using FEM analysis. And machining test was carried out in various machining conditions using ultrasonic vibration capable CNC machine. For work material, alumina ceramic ($Al_2O_3$) was used while for tool material diamond electroplated grinding wheel was used. To evaluate ultrasonic vibration effect, grinding test was performed with and without ultrasonic vibration in same machining condition. In ultrasonic mode, ultrasonic vibration of 20kHz was generated by HSK 63 ultrasonic actuator. The two grinding speeds, 1.67m/s and 3.35m/s, were applied. On the other hand, grinding forces were measured by KISTLER dynamometer.

This paper presents an experimental study of the effect of cutting tool materials on surface quality when turning hardened steels. Machining tests on a lathe are performed using polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN) and ceramic tools at various cutting conditions without coolant. From the experiments, it is observed that the radial force is the largest force component regardless the type of tool used. The specific cutting energy for the hard turning is estimated to be considerably smaller than the specific grinding energy. It is also found that cutting force and surface roughness with the PCBN tools are higher and better than those with the ceramic tools under the same cutting condition. It is due that the PCBN tools transfer the generated heat more effectively than the ceramic tools due to their higher thermal conductivity. The optimal cutting conditions for the best surface quality are selected by using an orthogonal array concept.

Fully dense THCN) based carbonitride ceramics were fabricated by pressureless sintering. During sintering, solid solutions were formed from the ceramic ingredients. The ceramics exhibited microvickers hardness of 1560-2050kgf/mm2, fracture toughness of 3.0-5.4 MPa $m^(1/2)$, and three point flexural strength of 645-1072 MPa. Some of the ceramics were shaped in a cutting tool, and the cutting performance was evaluated. In case of cutting SCM440 alloy steel, the ceramics showed better performance than the commercially available alumina-titanium carbide ceramic cutting tool. Considering the excellent productivity of pressureless sintering compared with other densification methods and their cutting performance, this new class of ceramics are very promising for wear resistant applications.

In the previously reported Part I, the experimental results in frictional machining that finished medium carbon steel SM 50 C under 6 kinds of liquid atmospheres by using ceramic tip as a frictional tool was described. The present study reports the experimental results that all the machining conditions are same in the Part I except tool material changed ceramics into tungsten carbide. The ceramic tool material is a stable oxide and a non-metallic material, but the tungsten carbide has the metallic characteristics that adhere to carbon steel at about 750.deg.C. The present study shows th comparison of the experimental results for the above 2 kinds of frictional tool material.
