Typical wear mechanisms
With carbide grades two wear mechanisms dominate – plastic deformation and notch wear.
It is important to identify which is the most prominent before selecting the correct grade
and strategy.
Notch wear on main cutting edge is a
mechanical wear which is concentrated at
the depth of cut. The extent of notch wear
is directly related to:
Because of these factors, notching is the critical wear for ISM where the material is hard
and the depth of cut is relatively high. To reduce notching, use as small entering angle as
possible.
Plastic deformation (PD)/even flank wear
– as a result of combined high tempera-
tures and high pressure on the cutting
edge. This wear is much more of a grade-
specific issue than notch wear, which is
more application related. Good wear resist-
ance and hot hardness will reduce the likeli-
hood of plastic deformation.
In case of excessive flank wear, use a more
wear resistant grade or reduce the cutting
speed.
