近年の切削加工装置のFA化はめざましく、一方で切削加工に対する省力化および省エネ化、さらに低コスト化の要求は強く、これに伴い、切削加工は、通常の切削条件に加えて、高い切削加工効率が得られるが、その反面、切刃部への機械的負荷が大きなものとなる高切り込みや高送りなどの重切削条件での切削加工が要求される傾向にあるが、上記の従来被覆超硬工具においては、各種の鋼や鋳鉄を通常条件下で切削加工した場合に特段の問題は生じないが、これを特に軟鋼、クロム鋼などの粘性の高い難削材の、高い発熱を伴う高送り、高切り込みの重切削条件下で切削加工を行った場合には、特に硬質被覆層の上部層を構成する(Al,Cr)層の潤滑性、表面滑り性不足が原因となって、切削時に切粉が切刃部に溶着し、これが原因でチッピング(微少欠け)が発生しやすくなり、この結果比較的短時間で使用寿命に至るのが現状である。 In recent years, the use of FA for cutting devices has been remarkable. On the other hand, there are strong demands for labor saving, energy saving, and cost reduction for cutting processing. Accordingly, in addition to normal cutting conditions, cutting processing requires high cutting processing. Although efficiency can be obtained, on the other hand, there is a tendency to require cutting under heavy cutting conditions such as high cutting and high feed that increase the mechanical load on the cutting edge. In hard tools, there is no particular problem when various types of steel and cast iron are machined under normal conditions. This is especially true for high viscosity difficult-to-cut materials such as mild steel and chrome steel. When cutting is performed under feed and high cutting conditions, especially due to the lack of lubricity and surface slipperiness of the (Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer that forms the upper layer of the hard coating layer. When cutting, chips are welded to the cutting edge, Les is chipping (minute chipping) is likely to occur due to reach this result relatively short time service life at present.

そこで、本発明者等は、上述のような観点から、特に軟鋼、クロム鋼などの粘性の高い難削材の高送り、高切り込みの重切削加工でも、硬質被覆層がすぐれた耐チッピング性を発揮する被覆超硬工具を開発すべく、上記従来の被覆超硬工具を構成する硬質被覆層に着目し、研究を行った結果、

It is characterized by a coated cemented carbide tool (surface coated cemented carbide cutting tool) that exhibits properties.

つぎに、この発明の被覆超硬工具において、これを構成する硬質被覆層の構成を上記の通りに限定した理由を説明する。
(1)下部層(Ti化合物層)
Ti化合物層は、基本的には上部層の上部内周層を構成する(Al,Cr)層の下部層として存在し、自身の具備するすぐれた高温強度によって硬質被覆層の高温強度向上に寄与するほか、超硬基体と上記上部内周層((Al,Cr)層)のいずれにも強固に密着し、よって硬質被覆層の超硬基体に対する密着性を向上させる作用を有するが、その合計平均層厚が0.5μm未満では、前記作用を十分に発揮させることができず、一方その合計平均層厚が15μmを越えると、切削時の発生熱によって偏摩耗の原因となる熱塑性変形を起し易くなることから、その合計平均層厚を0.5〜15μmと定めた。
(2)上部内周層((Al,Cr)層)
上記した通り上部内周層を構成する(Al,Cr)層(従来硬質被覆層における上部層に相当)におけるAl成分は高温硬さおよび耐熱性、同Cr成分は高温強度を向上させるが、AlとCr成分の相互含有割合を示す組成式:(Al1−XCr)で、X値が原子比で(以下同じ)0.35を越えると、相対的にAlの含有割合が低くなることから、層自体の高温硬さおよび耐熱性の低下は避けられず、これが摩耗促進の原因となり、一方、X値が0.05未満になると、層自体の高温強度の低下は避けられず、この結果チッピングなどが発生し易くなることから、X値を0.05〜0.35と定めた。
Next, in the coated carbide tool of the present invention, the reason why the structure of the hard coating layer constituting the tool is limited as described above will be described.
(1) Lower layer (Ti compound layer)
The Ti compound layer basically exists as the lower layer of the (Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer that constitutes the upper inner peripheral layer of the upper layer, and the high temperature strength of the hard coating layer by the excellent high temperature strength possessed by itself. In addition to contributing to the improvement, it firmly adheres to both the carbide substrate and the upper inner peripheral layer ((Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer), thereby improving the adhesion of the hard coating layer to the carbide substrate. However, if the total average layer thickness is less than 0.5 μm, the above-mentioned effect cannot be sufficiently exerted. On the other hand, if the total average layer thickness exceeds 15 μm, the cause of uneven wear is caused by heat generated during cutting. Therefore, the total average layer thickness was determined to be 0.5 to 15 μm.
(2) Upper inner peripheral layer ((Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer)
As described above, the Al component in the (Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer (corresponding to the upper layer in the conventional hard coating layer) constituting the upper inner peripheral layer improves the high temperature hardness and heat resistance, and the Cr component improves the high temperature strength. Is a composition formula showing the mutual content ratio of Al and Cr components: (Al 1-X Cr X ), and when the X value exceeds 0.35 in terms of atomic ratio (hereinafter the same), the Al content ratio is relatively The lowering of the high-temperature hardness and heat resistance of the layer itself is unavoidable because it becomes lower, which causes wear promotion. On the other hand, when the X value is less than 0.05, the lowering of the high-temperature strength of the layer itself is avoided. As a result, chipping and the like are likely to occur, so the X value was set to 0.05 to 0.35.

また、その平均層厚が0.5μm未満では、所望の耐摩耗性を長期に亘って確保することができず、一方その平均層厚が13μmを越えると、チッピングが発生し易くなることから、その平均層厚を0.5〜13μmと定めた。
(3)上部外周層(薄層Aと薄層Bとからなる交互多重積層)
(Al,Cr)層からなる上部内周層は、高温硬さ、耐熱性、高温強度にすぐれるものの、潤滑性、表面滑り性が十分ではないため、切刃部への機械的負荷が大きなものとなる軟鋼、クロム鋼等の難削材の高送り、高切り込みでの重切削加工においては、切刃部への切粉の溶着を十分満足できる程度に防止し得なかったことから、上部内周層上に、潤滑性、表面滑り性にすぐれるSiO層からなる薄層Aと、(Al,Cr)層からなる薄層Bとの交互多重積層を設けることにより、上部内周層の備える高温硬さ、耐熱性、高温強度の諸特性を特段低下させることなく、潤滑性、表面滑り性の改善を図った。つまり、薄層Aと薄層Bの交互多重積層からなる上部外周層は、軟鋼、クロム鋼等の難削材の高送り、高切り込み条件下での重切削加工において、潤滑性、表面滑り性を改善することにより、切刃部への切粉の溶着を抑制する。
Further, if the average layer thickness is less than 0.5 μm, the desired wear resistance cannot be ensured over a long period of time, while if the average layer thickness exceeds 13 μm, chipping tends to occur. The average layer thickness was set to 0.5 to 13 μm.
(3) Upper outer peripheral layer (alternate multiple lamination consisting of thin layer A and thin layer B)
The upper inner peripheral layer made of (Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer is excellent in high temperature hardness, heat resistance, and high temperature strength, but has insufficient lubricity and surface slipperiness, so it is mechanical to the cutting edge. In heavy cutting with high feed and high cutting of difficult-to-cut materials such as mild steel and chrome steel with heavy loads, it was not possible to prevent chip welding to the cutting edge to a satisfactory level. Therefore, on the upper inner peripheral layer, an alternate multiple lamination of a thin layer A composed of a SiO 2 layer excellent in lubricity and surface slipperiness and a thin layer B composed of an (Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer is provided. As a result, the lubricity and the surface slipperiness were improved without particularly reducing the high temperature hardness, heat resistance, and high temperature strength characteristics of the upper inner circumferential layer. In other words, the upper outer peripheral layer consisting of alternating multiple layers of thin layer A and thin layer B provides lubricity and surface slip in heavy feed machining under high feed and high cutting conditions of difficult-to-cut materials such as mild steel and chrome steel. By improving the above, the welding of chips to the cutting edge portion is suppressed.

薄層Aと薄層Bの交互多重積層(上部外周層)が、所定の潤滑性、表面滑り性を備え、その結果として、所定の耐チッピング、耐摩耗性を発揮するためには、薄層Aは、少なくとも0.1μmの厚さが必要とされ、これ未満の厚さでは重切削加工において必要とされる潤滑性、表面滑り性を発揮することができず、また、その厚みは0.8μm以下であれば、上部外周層の高温硬さ、耐熱性、高温強度の低下を招くことなく十分な潤滑性、表面滑り性をもたらすことができることから、薄層Aの平均層厚を0.1〜0.8μmに定めた。また、薄層Bの平均層厚が0.1μm未満の場合には、上部外周層に最小限必要とされる高温硬さ、耐熱性、高温強度を維持することができず、一方、交互積層する薄層Bの平均層厚が0.6μmを超えるような場合には、上部外周層の全体層厚に占める薄層Bの割合が多いため、薄層Aによる潤滑性、表面滑り性の効果が十分に期待できなくなることから、薄層Bの平均層厚を0.1〜0.6μmに定めた。   In order to exhibit predetermined chipping resistance and wear resistance as a result of the alternating multiple lamination (upper outer peripheral layer) of the thin layer A and the thin layer B having the predetermined lubricity and surface slipperiness, the thin layer A is required to have a thickness of at least 0.1 μm. If the thickness is less than 0.1 μm, the lubricity and the surface slipperiness required for heavy cutting cannot be exhibited. If it is 8 μm or less, sufficient lubricity and surface slipperiness can be brought about without lowering the high-temperature hardness, heat resistance and high-temperature strength of the upper outer peripheral layer. It was set to 1 to 0.8 μm. In addition, when the average layer thickness of the thin layer B is less than 0.1 μm, the minimum required high temperature hardness, heat resistance, and high temperature strength cannot be maintained for the upper outer peripheral layer. When the average layer thickness of the thin layer B exceeds 0.6 μm, the ratio of the thin layer B to the total thickness of the upper outer peripheral layer is large. Therefore, the average layer thickness of the thin layer B was set to 0.1 to 0.6 μm.

そして、薄層Aと薄層Bを、それぞれ前記所定平均層厚の薄層として交互に積層することにより、薄層Aと薄層Bの交互多重積層からなる上部外周層は、すぐれた潤滑性、表面滑り性を有し、かつ、所定の高温硬さ、耐熱性、高温強度を具備したあたかも一つの層であるかのように機能する。ただ、上部外周層(交互多重積層)の合計平均層厚が2μm未満では、自身のもつすぐれた潤滑性、表面滑り性と所定の高温硬さ、耐熱性、高温強度を硬質被覆層に長期に亘って付与できず、工具寿命短命の原因となり、一方その合計平均層厚が10μmを越えると、チッピングが発生し易くなることから、その合計平均層厚を2〜10μmと定めた。   And by laminating the thin layers A and B alternately as the thin layers having the predetermined average layer thickness, the upper outer peripheral layer composed of the alternating multiple lamination of the thin layers A and B has excellent lubricity. It functions as if it is a single layer having surface slipperiness and having predetermined high-temperature hardness, heat resistance, and high-temperature strength. However, if the total average layer thickness of the upper outer peripheral layer (alternate multi-layer) is less than 2 μm, the hard coating layer will have its own excellent lubricity, surface slipperiness, predetermined high temperature hardness, heat resistance, and high temperature strength for a long time. However, when the total average layer thickness exceeds 10 μm, chipping tends to occur. Therefore, the total average layer thickness is set to 2 to 10 μm.

この発明の被覆超硬工具は、硬質被覆層を、超硬基体を覆う下部層、該下部層を覆う上部内周層、該上部内周層を覆う上部外周層で構成し、かつ、該上部外周層を薄層A(SiO層)と薄層B((Al,Cr)層)との交互多重積層として構成することにより、硬質被覆層の下部層(Ti化合物層)および上部内周層((Al,Cr)層)の具備する高温硬さ、耐熱性、高温強度の諸特性を何ら損なうことなくこれを維持したままで、硬質被覆層がさらにすぐれた潤滑性、表面滑り性をも保持することになるので、各種の鋼、鋳鉄等の通常条件の切削加工に用いることができるばかりか、特に、切刃部への機械的負荷が大きなものとなる軟鋼、クロム鋼等の難削材の高送り、高切り込み条件の重切削加工においても、下部層であるTi化合物層の具備するすぐれた層間密着性および高温強度と相俟って、切刃部への切粉の溶着が低減され、また、これを原因とする偏摩耗の発生が抑制されることによって、硬質被覆層がすぐれた耐チッピング性を示し、長期に亘ってすぐれた耐摩耗性を発揮するのである。 In the coated carbide tool of the present invention, the hard coating layer is composed of a lower layer covering the carbide substrate, an upper inner circumferential layer covering the lower layer, an upper outer circumferential layer covering the upper inner circumferential layer, and the upper portion. By configuring the outer peripheral layer as an alternating multiple lamination of thin layer A (SiO 2 layer) and thin layer B ((Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer), the lower layer (Ti compound layer) and upper part of the hard coating layer Lubricant with a hard coating layer that maintains the high-temperature hardness, heat resistance, and high-temperature strength characteristics of the inner peripheral layer ((Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer) without any loss. In addition, since it also retains surface slipperiness, it can be used not only for cutting under normal conditions such as various types of steel and cast iron, but in particular, mild steel that has a large mechanical load on the cutting edge, Even in heavy cutting with high feed and high cutting conditions for difficult-to-cut materials such as chrome steel, Combined with the excellent interlaminar adhesion and high-temperature strength of the Ti compound layer, the adhesion of chips to the cutting edge is reduced, and the occurrence of uneven wear due to this is suppressed. As a result, the hard coating layer exhibits excellent chipping resistance, and exhibits excellent wear resistance over a long period of time.

つぎに、この発明の被覆超硬工具を実施例により具体的に説明する。   Next, the coated carbide tool of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to examples.

After sintering, the cutting edge portion was subjected to a honing process of R: 0.07 and ISO standard TiCN-based cermet carbide substrates B1 to B6 having a chip shape of CNMG120408 were formed.

上記の超硬基体A1〜A10およびB1〜B6のそれぞれを、アセトン中で超音波洗浄し、乾燥した後、図1に示される化学蒸着装置内に、第2図に示される超硬基体支持パレットの位置決め穴に載置した状態で装入し、まず、表3(表3中のl−TiCNは特開平6−8010号公報に記載される縦長成長結晶組織をもつTiCN層の形成条件を示すものであり、これ以外は通常の粒状結晶組織の形成条件を示すものである)に示される通常の条件にて、表6に示される組み合わせおよび目標平均層厚のTi化合物層を硬質被覆層の下部層として蒸着形成した。

Each of the above-mentioned carbide substrates A1 to A10 and B1 to B6 is ultrasonically cleaned in acetone and dried, and then placed in the chemical vapor deposition apparatus shown in FIG. 1 and the carbide substrate support pallet shown in FIG. First, Table 3 (l-TiCN in Table 3 indicates the conditions for forming a TiCN layer having a vertically grown crystal structure described in JP-A-6-8010). In the normal conditions shown in Table 6 above, the combinations shown in Table 6 and the Ti compound layer with the target average layer thickness are applied to the hard coating layer. Vapor deposition was formed as the lower layer.
Next, an (Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer having the target average layer thickness shown in Table 6 under the conditions shown in Table 4 was formed by vapor deposition as the upper inner peripheral layer of the hard coating layer.
Thereafter, the SiO 2 layer having the target average layer thickness also shown in Table 6 under the conditions shown in Table 5 was formed by vapor deposition as a thin layer A of the upper outer peripheral layer of the hard coating layer, and then shown in Table 4 The (Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer having the target average layer thickness shown in Table 6 under the same conditions was deposited as a thin layer B of the upper outer peripheral layer of the hard coating layer.

また、比較の目的で、これら超硬基体A1〜A10およびB1〜B6を、アセトン中で超音波洗浄し、乾燥した後、同じくそれぞれ図1,2に示される通常の化学蒸着装置に装入し、表7に示されるTi化合物層を硬質被覆層の下部層として蒸着形成した(なお、表7に示される従来被覆超硬工具1〜16の下部層(Ti化合物層)は、本発明被覆超硬工具1〜16のそれぞれと同じにしてあるので、下部層の具体的な形成条件、目標平均層厚は、表3、表6に示されているとおりである)。

For comparison purposes, these carbide substrates A1 to A10 and B1 to B6 were ultrasonically cleaned in acetone and dried, and then charged into the normal chemical vapor deposition apparatus shown in FIGS. The Ti compound layer shown in Table 7 was vapor-deposited as the lower layer of the hard coating layer (Note that the lower layer (Ti compound layer) of the conventional coated carbide tools 1 to 16 shown in Table 7 was coated with the present invention.

この結果得られた本発明被覆超硬チップ1〜16および従来被覆超硬チップ1〜16の硬質被覆層を構成する各層について、その組成を、オージェ分光分析装置を用いて測定したところ、いずれのTi化合物層、(Al,Cr)層も目標組成と実質的に同じ組成を示し、各層の層厚も目標平均層厚と実質的に同じ値を示した。さらに、本発明被覆超硬チップ1〜16の硬質被覆層の上部外周層の薄層Aを構成するSiO層についても、目標平均層厚と実質的に同じ値を示すSiO層が形成されていることが確認された。 About each layer which comprises the hard coating layer of this invention coated carbide | carbonized_material chip | tip 1-16 obtained as a result of this and the conventional coated carbide | carbonized_material chip | tip 1-16, when the composition was measured using the Auger spectroscopic analyzer, The Ti compound layer and the (Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer also showed substantially the same composition as the target composition, and the layer thickness of each layer also showed substantially the same value as the target average layer thickness. Further, the SiO 2 layer constituting the thin layer A of the upper outer peripheral layer of the hard coating layer of the coated carbide chips 1 to 16 of the present invention is also formed with an SiO 2 layer having substantially the same value as the target average layer thickness. It was confirmed that

表8に示される結果から、硬質被覆層の上部層が、上部内周層((Al,Cr)層)と、薄層A(SiO層)及び薄層B((Al,Cr)層)の交互多重積層からなる上部外周層とで構成されている本発明被覆超硬チップ1〜16は、軟鋼、クロム鋼などの難削材の切削加工を、切刃部への機械的負荷が大きなものとなる高切り込みや高送りなどの重切削条件で行なった場合にも、硬質被覆層がすぐれた潤滑性、表面滑り性を呈し、優れた耐チッピング性、耐摩耗性を長期に亘って発揮するのに対して、硬質被覆層の上部層が、(Al,Cr)層のみからなる従来被覆超硬チップ1〜16においては、特に前記上部層の潤滑性、表面滑り性不足が原因して、チッピングが発生し易く、比較的短時間で使用寿命に至ることが明らかである。 From the results shown in Table 8, the upper layer of the hard coating layer is the upper inner peripheral layer ((Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer), the thin layer A (SiO 2 layer) and the thin layer B ((Al, Cr). ) The coated carbide chips 1 to 16 of the present invention, which are composed of upper outer peripheral layers made up of two or more layers of 2 O 3 layers), can cut difficult-to-cut materials such as mild steel and chrome steel to the cutting edge. Even when performed under heavy cutting conditions such as high cutting and high feed that increase the mechanical load, the hard coating layer exhibits excellent lubricity and surface slipperiness, and excellent chipping and wear resistance. In the conventional coated cemented carbide chips 1 to 16 in which the upper layer of the hard coating layer is composed of only the (Al, Cr) 2 O 3 layer, the lubricity of the upper layer is particularly good. , Chipping is likely to occur due to insufficient surface slipperiness, and the service life is reached in a relatively short time. It is clear that

上述のように、この発明の被覆超硬工具は、通常の条件での切削加工は勿論のこと、特に軟鋼、クロム鋼などの難削材を、高切り込みや高送りなどの重切削条件で切削加工を行なった場合にも、すぐれた潤滑性、表面滑り性を呈し、溶着、偏摩耗を生じることなく良好な耐チッピング性を発揮し、長期に亘ってすぐれた耐摩耗性を示すものであるから、切削装置のFA化、並びに切削加工の省力化および省エネ化、さらに低コスト化に十分満足に対応できるものである。   As described above, the coated carbide tool of the present invention is capable of cutting difficult-to-cut materials such as mild steel and chrome steel under heavy cutting conditions such as high cutting and high feed, as well as cutting under normal conditions. Even when processed, it exhibits excellent lubricity and surface slip, exhibits good chipping resistance without causing welding and uneven wear, and exhibits excellent wear resistance over a long period of time. Therefore, it is possible to satisfactorily cope with the FA of the cutting device, the labor saving and energy saving of the cutting process, and the cost reduction.
