In recent years, the use of FA in cutting equipment has been remarkable. On the other hand, there is a strong demand for labor saving, energy saving, and lower cost for cutting work. Versatility that can cut as many types of work materials as possible is required,
Cutting also tends to be faster, but in the above-mentioned conventional coated carbide tools, there is no problem if this is used for cutting under ordinary conditions such as steel or cast iron, but this is extremely viscous. When used for high-speed cutting of work materials such as stainless steel and mild steel with high hardness, the chips of these work materials have a high affinity for the Al 2 O 3 layer and the Ti compound layer that constitute the coating layer. In addition, it is easy to weld to the cutting blade surface, and this welding phenomenon becomes more noticeable as the cutting speed increases,
At the present, chipping occurs in the cutting blade due to this welding phenomenon, and as a result, the service life is reached in a relatively short time.

When the Y value is on the lower side in the range of 1.2 to 1.9, for example, in the range of 1.2 to 1.4, or the average layer thickness is 0.1 to 5 μm. When the film is formed on the thin side within the range of, for example, 0.1-1 μm, sufficient interlayer adhesion between the Al 2 O 3 layer and the Al 2 O 3 -ZrO 2 mixed layer is obtained.

In the coated carbide tool of the present invention, the V component of the (Zr, V) O layer constituting the surface lubricating layer has a high viscosity such as stainless steel or mild steel due to heat generated during cutting as described above. It has the effect of decomposing into a V oxide having an extremely low affinity for difficult-to-cut materials and, at the same time, exhibiting excellent surface lubricity to the difficult-to-cut materials in a state where it coexists with the Zr oxide generated by decomposition. If the ratio (atomic ratio) to the total amount of Zr and Zr, that is, the X value is less than 0.1, the ratio of the Zr oxide generated during the cutting becomes relatively too large, and the surface lubrication by substantially only the Zr oxide On the other hand, when the X value exceeds 0.6, the production of the Zr oxide becomes too small, and the excellent surface lubricity brought about by the coexistence of the Zr oxide and the V oxide tends to decrease. Become , Defining the X value and 0.1 to 0.6. The oxygen (O) in the (Zr, V) O layer
The atomic ratio (Y value) to the total amount of r and V is 1.2 to 1.9.
The reason is that if the value is less than 1.2, the desired excellent surface lubricity cannot be secured, while the value is 1.9.
If the ratio exceeds the above range, pores are easily formed in the layer, and it is difficult to stably form a sound surface layer. Further, the average layer thickness of the (Zr, V) O layer is set to 0.
If the average layer thickness is less than 0.1 μm, the desired surface lubricity cannot be ensured. On the other hand, the surface lubricity imparting action is sufficiently performed with the average layer thickness of 5 μm. It is based on the reason that you can do it.

[0011] In the coated carbide tool of the present invention,
The lower layer (Ti compound layer) that constitutes the coating layer imparts excellent toughness to the coating layer so that the tool exhibits excellent fracture resistance, and the adhesion between the constituent layers of the coating layer. But the average layer thickness is 1μ
If the average thickness is less than 20 μm, on the other hand, if the average layer thickness exceeds 20 μm, it becomes easy to cause thermoplastic deformation which causes uneven wear during cutting, so that the average layer thickness is 1 to It was determined to be 20 μm. Further, the upper layer (Al 2 O 3 layer and / or Al 2 O 3 -ZrO 2 mixed layer) has excellent high-temperature hardness, heat resistance, and thermal stability, and due to these characteristics, the resistance of the tool is improved. It has the effect of improving abrasion. However, if the average layer thickness is less than 1 μm, the desired effect cannot be obtained, while the average layer thickness is less than 15 μm.
If the thickness exceeds μm, chipping is likely to occur on the cutting edge. Therefore, the average layer thickness is set to 1 to 15 μm.

According to the results shown in Tables 4 to 11, all of the coated carbide tools of the present invention in which the (Zr, V) O layer is formed as the surface lubricating layer can generate high heat while cutting stainless steel and mild steel. Even at the accompanying high speed, the (Zr, V) O layer has extremely low affinity with the high-temperature heated chips, the chips do not adhere to the (Zr, V) O layer, and the cutting edge is Since excellent surface lubricity is always maintained, chipping due to chip welding to the cutting edge does not occur on the cutting edge, and excellent wear resistance is exhibited.
V) In the conventional coated cemented carbide tool without formation of the O layer, chips are easily welded to the coating layer, and the coating layer is locally peeled off due to this. It is clear that the service life can be reached in an extremely short time. As described above, the coated cemented carbide tool of the present invention is not limited to cutting under ordinary conditions such as various types of steel and cast iron,
In particular, it exhibits excellent surface lubricity against chips even in high-speed cutting such as stainless steel and mild steel, which are highly viscous and chips easily adhere to the cutting blade surface, and show versatile cutting performance. Therefore, it is possible to satisfactorily cope with the use of the FA in the cutting device, the labor saving and energy saving of the cutting process, and the cost reduction.
