When the cost of the tool than the traditional tool pcbn 10-20 times higher, the study shows that they are in terms of the comprehensive productivity and tool life more efficient to 10-300 times. In a way, these findings are based on analysis tool cost per part assessed. To better understand the economic benefits of hard turning, consider some of the accounting department sometimes overlooked factor is helpful. These factors include the tool change time, adjust the time, processing time, machine maintenance, spare parts and machine quality original cost.

Hard turning good economy may be partly attributed to the machine itself. Much larger than the investment grinder cnc lathes, cnc lathe is usually one-third to one-half the cost of the grinder. Also, in terms of processing capacity greater flexibility cnc lathe. Tool change can be completed within two minutes, there is no need to replace the wheel of production time lost. These flexible to allow small quantities of parts fast, economical and good production.

Low maintenance is a benefit, as worn pcbn tool can be quickly taken away and replaced with a new blade, and does not require correction or amendment to maintain the cutting contour. cnc lathes and grinders compared to also take up less space and does not require tank system, and in many hard turning applications where even need coolant.

Because hard turning from the workpiece by 'stripping' soften the chips to effectively remove the metal, generally not recommended coolant. This helps to eliminate the use of coolant has caused environmental damage and reduce costs. Dry machining also reduces the time and money spent on treatment and recycling of chips on government regulation.
