Tool wear and tool life of PCBN, binderless cBN and wBN-cBN tools in continuous finish hard turning of cold work tool steel

• The paper presents the results of comparative study of performance of cutting tools made of ceramic-bound, binderless cBN, and wBN-cBN tool materials. The tool performance was assessed by tool wear-resistance, values of cutting forces, parameters of machined surface quality, and the state of sub-surface layer generated in continuous turning of hardened cold work tool steel. The tests were carried out under conditions of high speed machining (v (c) = 120-180 m/min) both with and without a coolant. The best tool performance by the above-mentioned criteria is provided by a low-cBN material with ceramic binder.
