Influence of Workpiece Material on Tool Wear Performance and Tribofilm Formation in Machining Hardened Steel

In addition to the bulk properties of a workpiece material, characteristics of the tribofilms formed as a result of workpiece material mass transfer to the friction surface play a significant role in friction control. This is especially true in cutting of hardened materials, where it is very difficu...
