Machining performance of 22MnB5 Boron steel cutting tool with Al 6061 Aluminium Alloy

Machining is a process to manufacture a product by removing portion of material by using cutting tool. In machining aluminium alloy, the usage of high speed steel (HSS) cutting tool have dominant due to versatility and superior hardness. However, HSS cutting tool is very prone to wear in high-speed...
