Optimization of Wet or Dry Micro-blasting on PVD Films by Various Al2O3 Grain Sizes for Improving the Coated Tools' Cutting Performance
Micro-blasting on PVD coated tools is an effective technology for improving their cutting performance. Through micro-blasting, compressive stresses are induced into the film, thus increasing the coating hardness, but its brittleness too. Simultaneously, abrasion phenomena are activated, which may l...
