Investigation of Durability T = f (vc) in Turning of the AISI 304 Austenitic Stainless Steel Using the CNMG 120408 Coated Carbide Insert

Abstract

The main aim of the authors research is to assess the investigation of durability T = f (vc) in turning of the AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel with the CNMG 120408 coated carbide cutting insert. Experimental tests of selected material were realized in the CNC machine tool Doosan Puma 240 with Fanuc 21i TB control system. This experimental study is a continuation of the solutions of grant VEGA no. 1/9428/02 titled “The technological heredity of the machined surfaces - surface integrity”. The aim of the present paper is to focus scientific research on the impact of the various applied values of cutting speeds in the outer longitudinal turning. This paper, together with the achieved results is a basis that will optimize the performance of turning process of the austenitic stainless steel AISI 304 used for special applications with their dominant functional areas.
