Abstract

A composite sintered body cutting tool is made of a composite sintered body comprising a TiCN-based cermet layer; and a WC-based cemented carbide layer. The angle between the rake face and the flank face of the cutting tool is 90°. The rake face including a cutting edge of the cutting tool is constituted from the WC-based cemented carbide layer, in which 4 to 17 mass % of an iron group metal component and 75 mass % or more of W are included; and a major hard phase component is WC. The thickness of the WC-based cemented carbide layer is 0.05 to 0.3 times the thickness of the composite sintered body. The TiCN-based cermet layer is constituted from a single layer of a TiCN-based cermet layer, including at least, 4 to 25 mass % of an iron group metal component, less than 15 mass % of W, 2 to 15 mass % of Mo, 2 to 10 mass % of Nb and 0.2 to 2 mass % of Cr in a case where contents of the constituting components of the cermet layer are expressed as contents of metal components, and satisfy the Co content relative to the total content of Co and Ni of 0.5 to 0.8 with respect to Co and Ni of the iron group metal component in a mass ratio. When the height profile from the upper end to the lower end of the flank face is measured in the plane, which passes the center of the rake face of the cutting tool and is perpendicular to both of the rake face and the flank face, as the line, which passes the ridge line where the rake face and the flank face intersect and perpendicular to the rake face, being the reference line, the maximum elevation difference value of the height profile is in a ratio of 0.01 or less with respect to the thickness of the composite sintered body from the front surface of the rake face to a rear surface.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A composite sintered body cutting tool made of a composite sintered body comprising:
a TiCN cermet layer; and
a WC cemented carbide layer, wherein
(a) an angle between a rake face and a flank face of the cutting tool is 90°,

(c) a thickness of the WC cemented carbide layer is 0.05 to 0.3 times a thickness of the composite sintered body,
(d) the TiCN cermet layer is constituted from a single layer of a TiCN cermet layer, comprising: 2 to 20 mass % of Co; 2 to 5 mass % of Ni; less than 15 mass % of W; 2 to 15 mass % of Mo; 2 to 10 mass % of Nb; 0.2 to 2 mass % of Cr; and TiCN balance, a total amount of Co and Ni being in a range of 4 to 25 mass %, a Co content relative to a total content of Co and Ni in a mass ratio being in a range of 0.5 to 0.8, and
(e) when a height profile from an upper end to a lower end of the flank face is measured in a plane, which passes a center of the rake face of the cutting tool and is perpendicular to both of the rake face and the flank face, as a line, which passes a ridge line where the rake face and the flank face intersect and perpendicular to the rake face, being a reference line, a maximum elevation difference value of the height profile is in a ratio of 0.01 or less with respect to a thickness of the composite sintered body from a front surface of the rake face to a rear surface.

2. The composite sintered body cutting tool according to claim 1 , wherein a planar shape of the rake face is in a polygonal shape or a circular shape.

3. The composite sintered body cutting tool according to claim 1 , wherein the WC cemented carbide layer constituting the rake face of the composite sintered body cutting tool is formed on: a front surface of the TiCN cermet layer; or a front surface and a rear surface of the TiCN cermet layer.

4. A surface coated composite sintered body cutting tool comprising:
the composite sintered body cutting tool according to claim 1 ; and
a hard coating layer formed on the front surface of the WC cemented carbide layer constituting at least the rake face of the composite sintered body cutting tool comprising the TiCN cermet layer and the WC cemented carbide layer.

5. The composite sintered body cutting tool according to claim 1 , wherein the WC cemented carbide layer comprises at least Co.
