In this study, the amount of WC and group N elements of Ti(C, N) cermet tool was investigated. The composition of WC was changed from 5 to 20% to determine the effect of WC on the cutting performance of cermet tool. The more WC was added, the longer the tool life of the cermet tool was. The cermet with 20% WC showed the best fracture toughness. The effect of group N elements ; ZrC, ZrN and HfC was also investigated by adding each of them to manufacture the cermet tool with fixed 14% WC composition. The cermet with 1% group N ZrC and 14% WC showed the best cutting performance among the investigated cermet tools.

When WC and group IV elements are added to Ti(C,N)-Ni substrate, microstructures of the cermet is changed. The microstructure gives direct effect on the property of the material. In this study, the amount of WC and group W elements of Ti(C,N) cermet tool was investigated. The composition of WC was changed from 5 to 20wt% to determine the effect of WC on the cutting performance of cermet tool. The more WC was added, the longer the tool life of the cermet tool was. The cermet with 20wt% WC showed the best fracture toughness. The effect of group W elements; ZrC, ZrN and HfC was also investigated by adding each of them to manufacture the cermet tool with fixed l4wt% WC composition. The cermet with 1wt% ZrC and 14wt% WC showed the best cutting performance among the investigated cermet tools.

When WC and group IV elements are added to Ti(C,N)-Ni cermet, microstructures of the cermet is changed. The change effects directly on the property of the material. In this study, the amount of WC and group IV elements of Ti(C,N) cermet tool was investigated. The composition of WC was changed from 5 to 20wt% to determine the effect of WC on the cutting performance of cermet tool. The more WC was added, the longer the tool life of the cermet tool was. The cermet with lwt% ZrC and l4wt% WC showed the best cutting performance among the investigated cermet tools. The cutting performance of cermet cutting tools suggests the possibility in interrupted cutting for reliability test experimentation was performed repeatedly with $Ti(C_{0.7},N_{0.3})- l4WC-1ZrC-20Ni$ cermet tool machining SCM440. The flank wear of cermet cutting tool at given time condition is suitable for Normal distribution and Log normal distribution by Chi squared test.

In this study, the effect of WC and group IV elements on the cutting performance in turning is investigated. The composition of WC was changed from 5 to 20% to determine the effect of WC on the cutting performance of cermet tool. The more WC was added, the longer the tool life of the cermet tool was. The cermet with 20% WC showed the best fracture toughness. The cermet tool with 20% WC showed the best cutting performance among the various WC composition. The effect of group IV elements ; ZrC, ZrN and HfC was also investigated by adding each of them to manufacture the cermet tool with fixed 14% WC composition. The cermet with 1% group IV HfC and 14% WC showed the best cutting performance among the investigated cermet tools.
