The use of cryogenic coolant in a machining operation in Ti, Ti-alloys or Ni-alloys together with a cutting tool of a cemented carbide substrate with a gradient surface zone with a thickness of between 50-400 &#x3bc;m is provided. The cemented carbide substrate has a binder phase gradient with the lowest binder phase content in the outermost part of the gradient surface zone and the cemented carbide having graphite. The arrangement leads to a significantly prolonged tool life.

Method of machining Ti, Ti-alloys and Ni-based alloys

The present invention relates to a coated cemented carbide milling insert for either wet or dry machining of cast iron such as nodular cast iron (NCI), grey cast iron (GCI), austempered ductile iron (ADI) and compacted graphite iron (CGI) where a high wear resistance and an excellent resistance against thermo cracks are required comprising:
