Abstract: The paper is dealing by testing of ceramic cutting
tools with an interrupted machining. Tests will be provided on fixture
– interrupted cut simulator. This simulator has 4 mouldings on
circumference and cutting edge is put a shocks during 1 revolution.
Criteria of tool wear are destruction of cutting tool or 6000 shocks.
Like testing cutting tool material will be products of Sandvik
Coromant 6190, 620, 650 and 670. Machined materials was be steels
15 128 (13MoCrV6). Cutting speed (408 m.min-1 and 580 m.min-1)
and cutting feed (0,15 mm; 0,2 mm; 0,25 mm and 0,3 mm) were
variable parameters and cutting depth was constant parameter.
