Artificial aging of hard-alloy cutting tool with titanium diffusion coating as a way to increase its persistence

[摘要] The paper describes the technology of applying titanium diffusion coating to the cutting tool from low-melting liquid metal solutions. The results of thermal treatment of the carbide cutting blades (WC and TiC type) after titanium diffusion coating from low-melting liquid metal solutions are given. The results of thermal treatment influence on the firmness of cutting tool having titanium coating are shown. It is found out that thermal treatment temperature, its duration and material composition influence affect tool durability and coating micro-hardness. It is revealed that thermal treatment of the carbide instrument with titanium diffusion coating lets to increase its persistence by 1.79 times comparing to the tool without coating. But without thermal treatment persistence of the instrument with coating increases by 9 times in comparison to the tool without coating.
