N2 - Cutting tools made of the ultra-hard composites polycrystalline diamond and polycrystalline boron nitride are being used in more and more sectors of machining. Due to the laborious preparation processes such as grinding, brushing, electrical discharge and laser machining, the subsurface of these tools is strongly stressed mechanically and thermally. This also changes the residual stress state in the highly loaded cutting edge area. The measurement of these residual stresses is not possible by established XRD methods due to the highly curved surface of the cutting edge. The measurement method Raman spectroscopy shows high potential for this application, but conversion factors are necessary for the application. These factors enable the conversion of the stress-induced peak shift in the Raman spectrum into absolute residual stress values. Previous conversion factors are mainly based on hydrostatic load cases, which, however, cannot be transferred to the application on cutting tools. In this work, axial load cases were provided by bending and conversion factors were determined by comparing XRD stress measurements and Raman peak shifts. The conversion factors determined were then plotted against existing results from other studies and the causes for the deviations that occurred were determined. By this, for the first time, a conversion factor for an axial load case for cubic boron nitride could be determined and it could be shown that, as for diamond, it differs significantly from the hydrostatic load case.
