In the present study, we have attempted to draw attention to the influences of pre-treatment and plating conditions on the cutting performance of cBN-coated tools. The pre-treatment evaluations are of the profile, the chemical cleaning and the bombardment conditions of the cutting edge. The plating condition evaluation concerns the influence of TiN and cBN plating conditions, respectively. Here, TiN plating is the pre-process of cBN plating. Moreover, using developed cBN-coated cutting tools, we carried out the cutting experiments for hardened die steel and austenitic structure stainless steels. As a result, it could be seen that the new cBN-coated cutting tools demonstrated effective performance for practical use in industrial fields.
