Abstract
The reliable and precise machining of cylinder head components in the combustion engine represents a crucial and complicated step in the production process. In industrial manufacturing processes, disturbances are inevitable and provide a measure of uncertainty in each production step. Increasingly, the influence of such uncertainties is being evaluated using simulation models. To determine the performance quality of the model, a suitable cutting material and the edge geometry must be identified. In this paper, experimental investigation of polycrystalline cubic boron nitride grades for machining valve seats made of powder metallurgy steel in a combustion engine is presented. Then, a mechanistic approach is used to establish a prediction model of the process forces based on the experimentally determined data set.
