A comparative study on flank wear and work surface finish during high speed milling of cast iron with different carbide tools by Khan, Ahsan Ali, Aman Nor Rasid, Zuraida, Yusof, Izausmawati

“…Though the productivity would be double at the speed of 1000m/min than that at the speed of 500m/min, tool wear increases to a few times which indicates that the inserts used are not suitable for machining at a high speed like 1000m/min. It is better to cut cast iron using uncoated K20 carbide at low cutting speed rather than at high speed. …”
