Analysis of Cutting Tools Durability Compared with Standard ISO 3685

Abstract

Quality and accuracy in engineering is described by means of standards ISO. One of these standards is standard ISO 3685. The main part of this standard is T-vc dependence for various cutting materials. Standard ISO 3685 contains main properties and characteristics of three most important cutting materials those are used in engineering practice. These cutting materials are used for cutting tools made of high speed steel, cutting ceramic and sintered carbide. The standard ISO 3685 prescribes instructions to creation of T-vc dependence for defined cutting materials. Paper describes process how to define T-vc dependence for cutting tools made of high speed steel, cutting ceramic and sintered carbide, because were found deficiencies in valid standard ISO 3685.
