Abstract

The coating effect on the cutting temperature has long been a hot topic in understanding heat transfer mechanism in machining coated tools, and especially the multi-layer coated tools. For multi-layer coated tools, the coating structure, coating thickness, and coating material will affect the cutting temperature of the tools. This paper is devoted to the cutting temperature in dry turning of H13 hardened steel with multi-layer coatings. New analytical models for estimating coating temperature and coating–substrate interface temperature were proposed. The multi-layer coating can be equivalent to mono-layer composite coating, which applies equivalent coating layer approach, and was developed to estimate the cutting temperature in turning by heat transfer model of mono-layer coated tool. The analyzed results were compared with appropriate experimental process data using thermocouples and FEM simulated data. The models can accurately reflect the cutting temperature of two multi-layer coated tools under the same cutting condition.
