Abstract


This paper describes a method for determining the life of cutting tools and ceramic when machining at high speed using the methodology of experimental design. The methodology is applied to determine the effect of cutting parameters on the tool’s life. Flank wear has been considered as the criteria for tool failure and the wear was measured using a Nikon measuring microscope. Further testing was stopped and the insert rejected when an average flank wear greater than 0.30 mm was reached. The exponential model was applied to determine the correlation between cutting time and the independent variables. The results indicated that the cutting speed Vc was a dominant factor on the tool’s life, followed by the criterion of flank wear VB* finally, the f and ap. The analysis of longitudinal monitoring of wear over time via the model (14) shows that the shape of the wear obeys the universal law of usury of any mechanical part.
