This document discusses the challenges of machining very hard materials above 400 BHN including being too brittle, unable to withstand cutting forces, and difficult to clamp or fixture. It also mentions the need to machine complex shape parts with micro holes, close tolerances, and good surface finishes without undesirable temperature increases or residual stresses.

• High hardness and (above 400 BHN) ; Too brittle material;
• W/p flexible or delicate to withstand cutting forces or parts
difficult to clamp or fixture; • Complex shape parts - micro holes on fuel injection nozzles. • Very close dimensional tolerance and good surface finish; • Temperature raise and residual stresses are not desirable;
