Abstract
Manufacturing industries are presently using many tool materials, such as high speed steel, carbide tool and diamond tools etc. The most widely and commonly used tool in the engineering industries is high speed steel (HSS). The HSS tools are the cheapest and reliable for medium and small scale industries. In this work, the HSS single point cutting tool is taken as substrate material and coated with two different combinations of TiAlN composite coating using Physical vapour deposition (PVD) technique. Also, Tool life was calculated and compared with uncoated HSS tool. The hardness and surface roughness value for both the tools have been taken under same condition. The loss of weight in the tool after machining has been weighed using standard equipments. The differences have been closely observed with sufficient trials and find out the loss in weight in both the tools. The weight loss percentage was calculated after proper machining trials. The tool life of the Titanium Aluminium Nitride (Ti 70%, Al 25%) coated tool has been increased by 3.74 times than that of uncoated tool. The surface finish for TiAlN (Ti 70%, Al 25%) coating is better than the uncoated tool. The PVD coated tools having better performance comparing with uncoated HSS tool.
