Influence of Hardening Process Over Modified Heat-Treated Carbon Steel Cutting Tool Materials

In this research work, we have found that tool wear rate of the materials of high-speed steel
and Titanium alloy which are having optimum composition of carbon and other constituents.
Here we have expounded the distinguishing characteristics of high-speed steel and Titanium
alloys in respect to the tool wear. Subsequently, we have carried out heat treatment process,
where two machined specimens were kept inside the muffle furnace once it attained required
temperature, it was maintained at that temperature for a certain period of time and then
cooled back to room temperature, we have conducted hardness test, tool wear test. In addition
to these cutting operations have performed over mild steel and aluminum workpiece.
