Development of an Advanced Carbide Cutting Tool for Nickel-based Alloy Machining

Abstract

The NCDMM placed a sub-contract with Kennametal to develop an advanced carbide tool for high productivity machining of nickel-base alloys. The contract was awarded in 2005 on a cost share basis with the total labor cost split equally between Kennametal and NCDMM. The program objective was to develop an advanced coated carbide tool for machining nickel-base alloys with 40% higher productivity than the currently existing technology The focus of the project is turning of Inconel 718 alloy.
