Features of PCD/PCBN cutting tool/wear-resistant part

PCD/PCBN cutting tool/wear-resistant part

This tool has a polished tip and is made by brazing material created by sintering the diamond (CBN) grains with a binder (metal, ceramics) with high temperatures and high pressure (1200C or more, 40,000 to 60,000hPa) onto a metal core.

 

 

PCD/PCBN and Work Materials

●Polycrystalline diamond tool - PCD (ED)

By adopting PCD for the edge, this tool is very effective for the cutting of nonferrous metals (aluminum, copper, biscuit-bake ceramic, carbon, MMC, CFRP)　and plastic.Part life can be extended by using this tool for slicing surfaces.

Features

• Long-life ; 10 to 50 times compared with the tungsten carbide.
• Roughness ; Nearly mirror finished surface processing that cannot be realized by the tungsten carbide

Kind of PCD	Knoop hardness [kg/l]	Grain size μ	Features	Workpiece material and application
ED-1	6500 ～ 8000	0.5 ～ 1	High fracture-resistance. Can obtain good finished surface accuracy.	Plastic (acrylic) Aluminum [interrupted cutting]
ED-5		2 ～ 5	Superior wear resistance. Can obtain good finished surface accuracy.	Aluminum Copper
ED-10		10	Good all-around tool for general cutting.	Aluminum Copper
ED-25		25	Strong cohesion between grains provides superior wear resistance	High-silicon aluminum Carbon, biscuit-bake ceramic
ED-50		～ 50	Superior wear-resistance and fracture-resistance	MMC CFRP

 

 

●Polycrystalline cubic boron nitride - PCBN (EB)

By adopting PCBN for the edge, this tool is more effective in cutting hardened steel, cast iron and heat-resistant alloys than tools made with conventional materials.

Features

• Can cut hardened steel and hard cast iron that in the past could only be cut with the help of grinding.
• Realizes faster cutting speeds and longer tool life, compared to cermet and tungsten carbide, for cutting cast iron (FC, FCD) and ferrous sintered metals such as valve seats (VSR).
• Allows for the cutting of high-speed steel, hard cast iron and heat-resistant alloys such as Inconel and Stellite.

Kind of PCBN	Knoop hardness [kg/l]	Grain size μ	Content of CBN / Binder	Workpiece material and application
EB-10	3500 ～ 4000	2	Content of CBN90％ Metal binder	Gray cast iron Heat-resistant alloy  [Interrupted cutting that generates heat]
EB-20		2	Content of CBN90％ Titanium binder	Hard cast iron　Ferrous sintered metal  [Heavy interrupted cutting]
EB-30		2	Content of CBN70％ Titanium nitride binder	Hardened steel [Continuous, interrupted finish cutting]
EB-40		2	Content of CBN50％ Titanium nitride binder	Hardened steel [Heavy interrupted cutting]
EB-50		4	Content of CBN75％ Titanium binder	Ferrous sintered metal [Continuous cutting]
