Description
COMPOSITE CUTTING TOOLS AND WEAR RESISTANT BODIES
The present invention relates to a material which is suitable for forming cutting tools and wear resistant bodies of various kinds, and to cutting tools and wear resistant bodies formed of the material.
The term cutting tool' as used herein is intended to include any tools for cutting or grinding such as, but not limited to, blades, saws, drills, abrasive tools, hones, reamers and wheels. The term wear resistant bodies' includes, but is not limited to, gear wheels.
I have established, in my previously published UK patent application GB2296921A, that Zr02 and TiB2 can be incorporated into a powder metallurgy high speed steel matrix by hot isostatic pressing, demonstrating sufficient wettability to give adequate bond strength with the matrix, yet being retained within the matrix as discrete, readily identifiable phases. The cutting performance of the metal/ceramic composition has been found to be superior to that of the equivalent matrix material without the ceramic addition.
It is known to make cutting tools based upon tungsten carbide which is a high hardness material.
The object of the invention is to provide improved cutting tools and wear resistant bodies based upon tungsten carbide, by inclusion, within a tungsten carbide matrix, of certain ceramic materials. The new cutting tools exhibit improved cutting performance and the wear resistant bodies exhibit low wear rate.
According to a first aspect of the invention there is provided a material for a cuthng tool or for a wear resistant body, which material comprises a first phase of tungsten carbide and a second phase comprising one or more of A carbide, boride or oxide of a transition metal, A carbide, boride or oxide of an alkaline earth metal.
A carbide, boride or oxide of aluminium A carbide or oxide of boron.
According to a second aspect of the invention there is provided a cutting tool or a wear resistant body comprising a first phase of tungsten carbide and a second phase comprising one or more of:- A carbide, boride or oxide of a transition metal, A carbide, boride or oxide of an alkaline earth metal, A carbide, boride or oxide of aluminium A carbide or oxide of boron.
The first phase may include a binder of cobalt, nickel and/or chromium.
The transition metal may comprise a metal from any one or more of the elements in groups Ill, IV, V or VI of the periodic table.
The transition metal may be any one or more of Hf, Mo, Zr, Nb, Cr, Ta Ti, Y, and W. The second phase may be one or more of HfC, MoC, ZrC, Zr02, NbC, CrB, CrB2, HfB2, MoB, Mo2B, NbB2, TaB, TaB2, TiB2, Ti02, W2B, WB, W2B5, ZrB2, or T1ZrB2.
The alkaline earth metal may be any one or more of Be, Mg or Ca.
The second phase may be one or more of BeO, MgO, or CaO The second phase may be one or more of Al203 or B4C Preferably the second phase is present in the material in the amount 0.0001% to 10% wgt.
More preferably the second phase is present in the material amount 0.01% to 2% wgt.
The second phase may be present as discrete particles within a matrix of the first phase.
A specific, non-limiting example of a method by which the material may conveniently be formed into a cutting tool is as follows.
0.02% wgt TiB2 is mixed with tungsten carbide based powder and 2% wgt wax to form a material with a dough-like consistency, and then pressed in a mould to form a body. The body is heated in a furnace to 800 degrees Centigrade under a hydrogen atmosphere to volatilise the wax and form a green state body. The green state body is then ground or otherwise machined into a more specific shape of a tool or wear resistant part, and sintered at 1300 degrees C to 1500 degrees C to provide a solid shaped tool. The tool may be ground to refine the shape still further for use.
I believe that the carbides, borides or oxides of the second phase exist in their cubic, hcp, tetragonal or monoclinic crystal lattice forms. One or more of the crystal structure, thermal properties, hardness and/or limited solubility for tungsten carbide of these ceramic species make them suitable for incorporation into cutting tools and other bodies which are based upon tungsten carbide, such that the tungsten carbide matrix retains the ceramic phase as discrete particles of about 20 micrometres diameter.
The second phase materials have a high hardness, up to 3370HV30, and a melting point of up to 3890 degrees C. The material can be formed into a high speed cutting tool such as a gear cutting hob, a broach, a drill, a tap, a reamer, a shaper or any other cutting tool. One or more cutting edges may be formed roughly thereon. The material can also be used to form a ware resistant part such as a gear.
Without wishing to be bound by any theory it is believed that the second phase improves cutting tool performance because it is harder than the first phase and/or because it presents a barrier to heat transfer within the tool.
It has been found that tools and bodies embodying the present invention have a long life and it is thought that this may be due, in part at least, to the heat absorbing properties of the ceramic material which enable the cutting edge to function at a relatively low temperature and thereby have better edge retention. Given the high speed nature of such tools (which may be as high as 20,000 rpm) the cooling effect should reduce or delay any tendency of the cutting edges to bluntness caused by frictional heating of the cutting edge.
