Wear Mechanisms of Ceramic Inserts in Machining Nickel-Based Superalloy

The performances of ceramic inserts in cutting nickel-based alloy were investigated. A new cutting test-bed was devised and used to deburr. The burr height on the working surface with notch wear in deburring cutting was compared with that in normal cutting. The impact force, impact pressure, and impact frequency of the saw-tooth-shaped chip edge on rake face and cutting edge at different speeds were calculated, and the influence of chip edge on notch wear formation was analyzed. A new tool design for reduci...
