The diamond and diamond-like carbon (DLC) films were deposited on the cobalt cemented tungsten carbide (WC-Co) cutting tools respectively adopting the hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) technique and the vacuum arc discharge with a graphite cathode. The scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy were used to characterize the as-deposited diamond and DLC films. To evaluate their cutting performance, comparative turning tests were conducted using the uncoated WC-Co and as-fabricated CVD diamond and DLC coated inserts, with glass fiber reinforced plastics (GFRP) composite materials as the workpiece. The research results exhibited that diamond and DLC coated inserts had great advantages in cutting tests compared to uncoated insert. The flank wear of the CVD diamond coated insert maintained a very low value about 50μm before the cutting tool failure occurred. For the DLC coated insert, its flank wear always maintained a nearly constant value of 70~200μm during whole 45 minutes turning process. The flank wear of CVD diamond coated insert was lower than that of DLC coated insert before diamond films peeling off.

To evaluate the cutting performance of CVD diamond coated silicon nitride insert, two kinds of CVD diamond films, namely microcrystalline diamond (MCD) and composite diamond films, are deposited on silicon nitride (Si3N4) inserts using the hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) method. The characterization of as-deposited diamond films is conducted using the scanning electron microscope (SEM), optical interferometric profiler, X –ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectrum. The turning tests for as-fabricated MCD and composite diamond coated insert, as well as uncoated silicon nitride insert, are performed in dry turning aluminum silicon alloy, where the cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut are fixed as ν = 2000 r/min, f=0.1 mm/r and ap=1 mm. The results demonstrate that the main tool failure is the tool wear. As compared with the uncoated silicon nitride insert, the woking life time of the diamond coated insert can be increased by a factor of above 7.

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) is difficult to machine because of the extremely abrasive nature of the carbon fibers and its low thermal conductivity. CVD diamond films have many excellent properties such as wonderful wear resistance, high thermal conductivity and low friction coefficient, therefore depositing diamond films on the surface of drills is thought to be an effective way to elongate the lifetime of drills and improve the cutting performance. In this study, diamond films are deposited on the WC-Co drill using hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) method. The results of characterization by the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Raman spectrum indicate that the fabricated CVD diamond coated drill is covered with a layer of uniform and high-purity diamond films. The cutting performance of as-fabricated CVD diamond coated drill is evaluated in dry drilling CFRP, comparing with the uncoated WC-Co drill. The results demonstrate that the CVD diamond coated drill exhibits much stronger wear resistance. Its flank wear is about 50μm after drilling 30 holes, about one-third of that of WC-Co drill. Machining quality of the exit and internal wall of drilled holes shows better surface finish obtained by coated drill, which suggests that CVD diamond coated tool has great advantages in drilling CFRP.

The chemical vapor deposition (CVD) diamond and diamond-like carbon (DLC) films are deposited on the cobalt cemented tungsten carbide (WC-Co) cutting tools respectively using the hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) technique and the vacuum arc discharge with a graphite cathode. The scanning electron microscope (SEM), optical interferometer profiler and Raman spectroscopy were adopted to characterize the as-deposited diamond and DLC films. The cutting performance of as-fabricated CVD diamond and DLC coated milling tools is evaluated in dry milling SiC particulate reinforced Al-metal matrix composite material (Al/SiC-MMCs), comparing with the uncoated WC-Co milling tool. The milling results demonstrate that the uncoated WC-Co milling tool suffers severest wear in its circumferential cutting edge, while the wear of DLC coated milling tool is slightly lower. Comparatively, the CVD diamond coated milling tool exhibits much stronger wear resistance. The wear on its circumferential cutting edge is less than 0.07 mm at the end of milling test, only a half of that of DLC coated milling tool. This result is attributed to the extremely high hardness and strong adhesive strength of CVD diamond film covered on the WC-Co milling tool.
