Polycrystalline Diamond PCD from China Suppliers | Quality Manufacturing at Our Factory
Product Description
(1) PCD in the automotive and aerospace applications
PCD tools in the automotive field are mainly used for processing the skirt of the engine piston, pin hole, cylinder block, gearbox and so on. Due to the high silicon content of these parts (more than 10%), the service life of the tool requirements, and PCD tool durability is 1-50 times the carbide tool, can ensure the stability of the size of the parts, and can greatly improve the cutting speed, machining efficiency and surface quality of the workpiece.
In the aerospace field, the use of PCD tools processing aluminum alloy (AlSi2) cylinder head, cutting rate is higher, and tool life than cemented carbide to improve about 20 times, the surface quality of the workpiece is also greatly improved.
(2) PCD in the wood processing industry applications
Wood processing is also an important area of PCD tool applications. With the rapid development of synthetic panels (medium density fiberboard, particleboard and laminate flooring, etc.), accelerating the demand for super-hard cutting tools, so that PCD tools gradually replace the traditional woodworking tools in the market.
The outermost layer of Al2O3 of laminate flooring is very abrasive to the carbide tool, and the use of PCD tools can effectively solve this problem. Therefore, PCD in the woodworking industry's main market is reinforced composite flooring and high hardness fiberboard processing.
(3) PCD in the electronic processing industry applications
The electronics industry in the production of electrical printed circuit boards more and more demanding, the general tool in use will have a burr, affecting the installation and positioning of electrical components, and the whole printed circuit board is not beautiful; carbide cutting tools in the processing, short life, slow processing speed, low efficiency, poor machining accuracy. The use of PCD tools, high processing efficiency, low processing costs, more widely used.
(4) PCD in the glass cutting and processing industry applications
Cutter wheel made of PCD is mainly used for high-precision, high-quality cutting of LCD screens of electronic products, and at the same time can cut glass for construction and automobile. The mandrel and cutter wheel are made of PCD material, which has the advantages of high processing precision, wear resistance, good consistency, and high service life at the same time, making it an ideal substitute for ordinary glass knives and carbide glass cutter wheels.
(5) PCD in the composite materials industry applications
Using PCD tools to process glass fiber reinforced composites, its tool life is about 60 times that of cemented carbide tools, the single piece processing cost is 1/20 of cemented carbide tools, and the processing accuracy is higher than that of cemented carbide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How do PCD tools perform compared to carbide tools in automotive manufacturing?
A1: PCD tools feature a durability that is 1 to 50 times greater than carbide tools. They ensure dimensional stability for high-silicon parts and significantly improve cutting speed, machining efficiency, and surface quality.
Q2: Why is PCD preferred for laminate flooring and wood processing?
A2: Laminate flooring has a highly abrasive Al2O3 outer layer that quickly wears down carbide tools. PCD tools effectively resist this abrasive wear, making them ideal for reinforced composite flooring and high-hardness fiberboard.
Q3: What problems do PCD tools solve in electronic PCB manufacturing?
A3: Traditional carbide tools often create burrs that interfere with component installation and lower efficiency. PCD tools eliminate burrs, improve component positioning accuracy, increase processing speed, and lower costs.
Q4: Can PCD cutter wheels be used for automotive and structural glass?
A4: Yes, PCD cutter wheels and mandrels provide the high precision, wear resistance, and consistency required to cut LCD screens, architectural glass, and automotive glass.
Q5: What are the cost-saving benefits of using PCD tools on composite materials?
A5: For glass fiber reinforced composites, PCD tools have a lifespan approximately 60 times longer than carbide tools, reducing the single-piece processing cost to just 1/20 of carbide tools.
Q6: What is the tool life improvement of PCD in aerospace applications?
A6: When processing aluminum alloy (AlSi2) cylinder heads in the aerospace field, PCD tools improve tool life by approximately 20 times compared to cemented carbide, while providing a higher cutting rate and superior surface quality.
