Cutting Tools in Industry 4.0: Breaking through Performance Barriers Table of Contents Charting the Evolution of Cutting Tools Responding to Process Challenges Conclusion: Productivity or Price Cutting tools are central to machining processes for making industrial machinery, watch components, and car and aircraft parts. Given this diverse applicability, they are in high demand and the subject of significant innovation. Comprising saws, reamers, drills, chasers, cutters, end mills, boring tools, honing tools, combination tools, and gear-cutting tools, the scope and quality of industrial cutting tools is a constant test for innovators. Accordingly, they have focused on improving tool durability, speed, and precision, with tool geometry and application-specific design also in focus. Newer materials like cermet and polycrystalline diamonds (PCD) are stronger and more durable than the previously preferred High-Speed Steel (HSS) and Cemented Carbide. Creating the coatings that amplify tool s...
