  • Publication number: 20240287680
    Abstract: A coated cutting tool includes a CVD coating and a substrate made of cemented carbide. The CVD coating has an inner layer of TiN and a subsequent layer of TiCN and a layer of Al2O3. The coated cutting tool is subjected to a shot peening process using a granular media including beads of crystallin tungsten carbide. A method of shot peening coated cutting tools with beads of crystallin tungsten carbide is also provided.

  • Patent number: 11060155
    Abstract: A cemented carbide body includes WC in a metallic binder phase. The cemented carbide body has a bulk portion and a surface portion. The grain size of the WC in the surface portion is smaller than the grain size in the bulk portion of the body and this gives an increased surface hardness and an increased wear resistance. The median grain thickness, tg, of WC in the surface portion is 20-300 nm and the average grain size in the bulk portion is 0.5-8 ?m. A method of surface hardening a cemented carbide body is also provided.
