Abstract

The paper describes a method of determining the temperature field under real conditions of the cutting of natural diamond monocrystals using a thermograph. The advantages of the thermography over the method of artificial thermocouples are discussed. The temperature distribution along the cutting direction is given and temperature kinetic dependencies are explained. It is shown that under severe cutting conditions the crystal temperature can reach values close to the diamond graphitization temperature. In those cases single large wear particles of diamond appear.
