TITANIUM COMPOUND BASE CERMET MADE CUTTING TOOL EXCELLENT IN ANTI-CHIPPING

摘要

PURPOSE:To enhance the anti-chipping so as to prevent the generation of chipping on the cutting edge even in the condition of intermittent cutting by providing a titanium carbide-nitride base cermet including 3 to 40wt.% of whisker. CONSTITUTION:A titanium compound base cermet includes 3 to 40wt.% of whisker composed of titanium carbide, titanium nitride and one or two kinds of titanium carbide-nitride. With this arrangement, it is possible to enhance anti-chipping and also improve the wear resistance.
