MCQs on Cutting Tool Material-1

1 - Question

If a percentage of cobalt in Tungsten carbide tool increases, then toughness of tool will
a) Increase
b) Decrease
c) Remains Constant
d) First increase then decrease
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: With an increase in percentage of cobalt toughness increases. Carbides are very hard and have very good red hot hardness property and hence most suitable for machining of hard and brittle material.



2 - Question

Which of the following tools is most suitable for very hard and brittle material?
a) HSS
b) Cast-cobalt alloy
c) Carbides
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: c
Explanation: Carbides are very hard and have very good red hot hardness property and hence most suitable for machining of hard and brittle material.



3 - Question

High speed steels are most suitable for
a) High Positive rake angle tools
b) High Negative rake angle tools
c) Zero Rake angle tools
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: HSS are very tough and fracture resistance and suitable for high positive rake angle tool. With an increase in percentage of cobalt toughness increases. advertisement



4 - Question

Which of the following tool material will offer lower friction and higher resistance to cracks and wear?
a) HSS
b) TiC
c) WC
d) TiCN
View Answer Answer: d
Explanation: TiCN is a coated tool and hence offer very less friction and there is much low chance of wear in tool due to coating on tool.



5 - Question

Which of the following tool material will offer lower friction and higher resistance to cracks and wear?
a) HSS
b) TiC
c) Cast cobalt alloys
d) Coated tools
View Answer Answer: d
Explanation: Coated tool offers very less friction and there is much low chance of wear in tool due to coating on tool.



6 - Question

Which of the following material can be used for coating on tools?
a) HSS
b) TiCN
c) WC
d) cBN
View Answer Answer: b
Explanation: TiCN can be used for coating of tool while, HSS, WC and cBN are tool materials. With the increase in percentage of cobalt toughness increases.



7 - Question

Cutting tool should maintain its hardness.
a) True
b) False
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: Life of cutting tool is ends when it looses its hardness. With increase in percentage of cobalt toughness increases.



8 - Question

Thermal conductivity of cutting tool must be
a) High
b) Low
c) Very low
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: For faster removal of heat, cutting tool must have high thermal conductivity. Thermal conductivity of cutting tool must be high.



9 - Question

Hot hardness of cutting of cutting tool should be
a) Large
b) Small
c) Very small
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: Cutting tool must be able to withstand high temperature. Hot hardness of cutting of cutting tool should be large.



10 - Question

Wearing resistance of cutting tool must be
a) High
b) Low
c) Very low
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: Cutting tool has high capability to resist wear. Wearing resistance of cutting tool must be high.
