Abstract:
The cutting temperature of CBN tools when machining hardened steel was investigated at different cutting regime and cutting tool geometry. An unusual phenomenon that the depth of cut influenced the temperature more significantly than the feed rate was analysed via partial differentiation. A chamfered cutting edge generally raised the cutting temperature and the significance of the temperature increase was associated with the cutting speed.
