Abstract:

This piece of work deals with the influence assessment of the kind of coating of the cutting
inserts and their wear on the dimensional accuracy and the top layer microstructure and roughness
of the surface machined with constant cutting parameters vc = 85 m/min, f = 0.14 mm/obr and
ap = 0.2 mm. The tests were performed on shafts made of Inconel 718 material under the conditions
of finish turning, requiring a tool life of more than 20 min. The cutting inserts of identical geometry
made of fine-grained carbide covered with coatings were applied by the PVD and CVD method.
The values of the obtained diameter dimensions were assessed in reference to the assumed ones,
as well as the values of the surface roughness and stereometry and the microstructure of the top
layer. The nature and mechanisms of edge wear and its value expressed by the VBC parameter
were also assessed. It was determined in the tests that the machined surface quality defined by the
Ra and Sa roughness parameters and the dimensional accuracy were influenced not only by the
coating microhardness but also by the method of applying the given coating. The lowest values of
the tested roughness parameters were observed for the surface machined with an edge, with the S205
coating applied by the CVD method, which was characterized by the lowest microhardness. The edge
with this coating also showed the lowest wear, defined by the VBC parameter, which translated into
dimensional accuracy. Furthermore, the edge with the S205 coating also provided the best results with
regard to the surface layer microstructure. The least favorable results, both in terms of dimensional
accuracy and surface roughness, were obtained for the surface machined with a 1115-PVD-coated
edge. The highest wear value was also recorded for this edge.
