Tool life and performance are decisively determined by cutting edge geometry. An
appropriate shape of the cutting edge improves wear resistance, tool life and process …

This paper reviews some of the main developments in cutting technology since the
foundation of CIRP over fifty years ago. Material removal processes can take place at …

Coated tools constitute the majority of the tools applied in material removal processes,
rendering the employment of uncoated ones as an exception. A broad growing market of …

An evenly and smoothly distributed abrasion wear, observed along the entire cutting edge of
an uncoated carbide drill bit in drilling CFRPs, is due to the highly abrasive nature of the …

The metalcutting process, which includes turning, milling, drilling, and other methods for
sha** metals, generates large mechanical forces and high temperatures at the point of …

This article correlates laboratory-based understanding in machining of titanium alloys with
the industry based outputs and finds possible solutions to improve machining efficiency of …

For decades, attentions have been paid to metal cutting processes, especially for the critical
components in aerospace, marine, medical industries, etc. Scholars investigated the …

The performance of machining titanium can be enhanced by using cutting tools with
rounded cutting edges. In order to better understand the influence of rounded cutting edges …

The wear behaviour of PM-HSS milling inserts is investigated experimentally. Cutting inserts
with different cutting edge radii tested in industrial conditions were examined. The radii have …

Edge preparation has gained widespread use due to its low cost and high impact. Various
edge preparation methods are reported in the literature. Choice of edge preparation …
