Effect of temperature of annealing below 900 °C on structure, properties and tool life of an AlTiN coating under various cutting conditions
Abstract
In this study the cemented carbide cutting tools with a nano-crystalline Al0.67Ti0.33N hard PVD coating deposited by cathodic arc evaporation were annealed within a range of temperatures 700–800 °C during 2 h in vacuum. The changes in structure and properties of the coating vs. temperature have been analyzed using TEM as well as high temperature nano-indentation methods. Cutting tools with the annealed AlTiN coating have been run through a …
