Polycrystalline Diamonds (PCD) is a Synthetic diamond product that is produced by sintering together selected diamond particles with the metal matrix using sophisticated technology.
The PCD Tools have uniform hardness and high abrasion resistance as compared to tungsten carbide or ceramic tools. In certain applications, they offer 50 to 100 times life at just 10 to 15 times more price than carbide tools.
They are recommended for machining non ferrous metals and Abrasive non-metallics like:-
• Aluminum and Aluminum alloys.
• Copper, Brass and Bronze alloys.
• Zinc and Magnesium alloys.
• Gold and Silver.
• Tungsten carbide presintered and sintered.
• Plastic and Rubber
• Epoxy resins.
• Fiber glass composites.
• Carbon and Graphite
• Ceramic unfired
• Phenolice
• Chipboard and fibre board
• Graphite composities
Like polycrystalline diamonds, CBN is available in different shapes, size and grades depending upon the application.
Productivity increases fantastically when CBN Tools are used to turn, bore and face hard materials which previously could be formed only by grinding.
CBN tools are recommended for cutting :-
• Chilled cast iron
• Carbon tool steels.
• Alloy steel
• Die steel
• High speed steel
• Ni hard.
• Forged steel
• Meehanite Iron
• Molly Chrome steel rolls.
