Abstract:
The present invention relates to a coated cutting tool comprising a cemented carbide substrate comprising WC, a metallic binder phase and gamma phase, where the cemented carbide has a well distributed gamma phase and where the cemented carbide have a reduced amount of abnormal WC grains. Further, the coated cutting tool is provided with a CVD coating comprising a TiCN and an α-Al 2 O 3 layer where said α-Al 2 O 3 layer exhibits a texture coefficient TC(0 0 12)≥7.2 and where in the ratio I(0 0 12)/I(0 1 14)≥1. The coated cutting tool according to the invention has an increased resistance against plastic deformation while maintaining the toughness.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for milling a cermet or cemented carbide powder. The process comprises circulating a slurry comprising powder(s) forming hard constituents, powder(s) forming binder phase and a grinding liquid through a grinding chamber. The grinding chamber comprises grinding elements and an agitator where the agitator is rotating around an essentially horizontal axis. The process according to the present invention provides a cermet or cemented carbide powder mixture at a significantly reduced milling time.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a powder mixture for three dimensional printing of a cermet or a cemented carbide body, said powder mixture comprising 65-85 wt% porous cemented carbide or cermet particles of a median particle size (D50) of 10-35 μιη, and 15- 35 wt% dense cemented carbide or cermet particles of a median particle size (D50) of 3- 10 μιη.
