Generally, automotive cylinder head is manufactured by FCD45 material that is hard to cutting materials, and it needs the accurate machining tool fir higher output of engine. This paper is concerned with a study on TiN coated 6 edges reamer for improving machining accuracy of cylinder head guide pin. The reamer shape is changed from 4 edges to 6 edges for the improvement of machining accuracy. Also, TiN coating is applied to the improvement of surface roughness of cylinder head guide pin and tool life of 6 edges reamer. It is noted that 6 edges reamer are effective in controlling the dimensional accuracy and surface roughness as well as increasing tool life.

After drilling, reaming is required to process a workpiece for obtaining an excellent surface quality. In general, a cermet is defined as a "composite of a ceramic hard phase and metal-bonded phase." Cermets have excellent abrasion resistance, thermal resistance, and performance in finishing operations that require surface roughness and processing precision. However, although cermets have significant advantages, research on them is insufficient. In this study, workpiece SM45C was machined using drills and cermet reamers. The cermet reamer was processed for drag finishing for 0, 4, and 6 min. The experimental results showed the effects of drag finishing on surface roughness and dimensional accuracy.
