Abstract: This paper presents a solution for ceramic cutting tools availability in interrupted machining. Experiments were performed on a special fixture – the interrupted cut simulator. This fixture was constructed at our Department of Machining and Assembly within the scope of a project by the Czech Science Foundation. The goals of the tests were to contribute to the wider usage of these cutting materials in machining, especially in interrupted machining. Through the centuries, producers of ceramic cutting tools have taken big steps forward. Namely, increasing durability in maintaining high levels of strength and hardness lends an advantage. Some producers of these materials advise cutting inserts for interrupted machining at the present time [1, 2].
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.
