cutting tool due to its interaction with inclusions in the
workpiece material. The benefits of such a layer on tool
protection during turning have been well clarified, especially
for stainless steels [13-15]. The TPL will act as a protective
layer between the tool and workpiece during machining and
thus decrease the rate of deterioration. A similar phenomenon
has also been observed while machining white cast iron [16]
and Alloy 718 [17] with pcBN tools. Thus, study and
characterization of such protective layer on the worn cutting
tool formed a central part of the current study.

and commercial pcBN (bottom).
During this investigation, machining of common gray cast
iron EN-GJL-250 (SS0125) was examined, Fig. 1. The generic For each tool, longitudinal turning was performed on a

selected material properties in Table 2. restrictions set a limit of approximately 15 000 m of spiral
distance for each test. Following recommendations from the
industry, the cutting data was selected as cutting speed vc =
1300 m/min, feed f = 0.5 mm/rev and depth of cut ap = 0.7 mm.
Measurement of the tool wear was performed continuously
during the machining tests. The tests were interrupted every
2500 m and the complete assembled tool was inspected with
optical microscopy. This ensured maintaining the correct
position for round inserts. Worn tools were cleaned with
alcohol and measured on a Alicona Infinite Focus 3D
microscope. A typical image of the observed tool wear is
shown in Fig. 3.

in-depth analysis of the adhered material was performed on the

was performed of the bcBN due to the observation of similar
types of adhered material on all tool grades.
