What about the diamond tools used in the machining process? How to choose a suitable diamond tool?

2022 06/17

Diamond tools are a relatively common tool in the machining industry. There are many kinds of such tools. As long as you choose the right diamond tool, you can achieve more with less effort in machining. Today, let`s talk about it: machining process What about the diamond tools used in? How to choose the right diamond tool?

What about diamond tools?

1. Diamond tools have the advantages of high hardness, wear resistance, high thermal conductivity, and low thermal expansion coefficient. It can be used for precision machining of non-metallic hard and brittle materials, such as graphite, composite materials, high-silicon aluminum alloys and other metal materials. There are many kinds of diamond tools on the market now, and their functions are significantly different. Different types of diamond tools have great differences in their structure and application fields.

2. Natural diamond tools are widely used in precious metals such as copper, copper alloy, silver, rhodium, etc., as well as ultra-precision mirror processing. Common ones are: optical plane mirror, polygon mirror, etc. But its crystal anisotropy, the tool is expensive. The function of PCD depends on the content of cobalt, and the tool life is 10 to 500 times that of cemented carbide tools. It is used for turning various non-ferrous metals, such as aluminum, magnesium and non-metallic materials with strong wear resistance.

3. The sharper the blade, the easier it is to decompose the object. Therefore, when we choose a tool, we should check whether the blade is sharp and whether there are obvious gaps. There are many kinds of knives on the market now. If they are divided by raw materials, they can be roughly divided into steel, carbon steel and ceramics. In fact, it is not that the higher the hardness, the sharper the blade, because this is also related to the softness of the blade.

4. In the cutting process, the tool needs to face a lot of cutting force and impact force, so the tool must have strong strength and toughness. Another thing we need to know is that the tool should have certain wear resistance and heat resistance. Because the tool cuts certain things during use, it has stronger wear resistance than other things.
