Cutting tool material selection in machining is governed by a trade-off among hardness, hot hardness, toughness, wear resistance, thermal conductivity, and chemical stability, and improvements in these material properties historically drive higher achievable cutting velocities and productivity. This is a principle of manufacturing/machinability engineering (specifically metal cutting tool technology), describing how tool material composition and processing determine performance limits and appropriate application domains relative to workpiece material and cutting conditions.
