The local high temp. and extreme pressure in the cutting zone caused the work material to adhere or pressure weld to the cutting edge of the tool forming the built up edge rather like a dead metal zone in the the extrusion process. Although this material protects the cutting edge from wear it modifies the geometry of the tool. BUE's are not stable and will break off periodically adhering to the chip or passing under the tool and remaining on the machine surface. BUE formation can be eliminated or minimized by reducing the depth of cut, altering the cutting speed, using positive rake tools, applying a coolant, or changing cutting tool materials.

The casting provides a tough core and elongated grains normal to the surface. The structure is not however homogeneous. The tools made of cast cobalt alloys are generally cast to shape and finished size by grinding. They are only available in simple shapes such as single point tools, and saw blades because of limitations in the casting process and expense involved in the final shaping (grinding). Materials machinable with this tool material include plain carbon steels, alloy steels, non-ferrous alloys, and cast iron.

Run with no coolant, and have about the same tool life at their higher speeds as tungsten carbide does at lower speeds. Ceramics are usually as hard as carbides but are more brittle and therefore require more rigid tool holders and machine tools in order to take advantage of their capabilities. Ceramics are a good material for high speed finishing and/or high removal rate machining applications of super alloys, hard chill cast iron and high strength steels. Edge chipping usually the dominate mode of tool failure.

Cermets are usually cold pressed and proper processing techniques are required to prevent insert cracking.
