A Comprehensive Review on the Conventional and Non-Conventional Machining and Tool-Wear Mechanisms of INCONEL<sup>®</sup>
Published 2023-03-01“…These superalloys can withstand high-temperature applications without suffering from creep, making them extremely appealing and suitable for manufactured goods such as jet engines or steam turbines. Nevertheless, INCONEL<sup>®</sup> alloys are considered difficult-to-cut materials, not only due to their superior material properties but also because of their poor thermal conductivity (<i>k</i>) and severe work hardening, which may lead to premature tool wear (TW) and poor final product finishing. …”
