Abstract;Many years have been passed since CVD diamond-coated cutting tools were commercialized. Meanwhile dry cutting has been spread for ecological and economical reasons in machining fields. The conventional diamond-coated cutting tools shows excellent wear resistance, however chip removal speed is not sufficient due to surface roughness of diamond film. In this study, fine grained CVD diamond film with smooth surface was developed to improve chip flow. Twisted drills and square end mills coated with this smooth CVD diamond film showed excellent performance in dry cutting compared with conventional CVD diamond-coated tools. (author abst.)
