Diamond single crystal cutting tool is a new type of cutting tool material. Due to its unique advantages in hardness, wear resistance, thermal stability, etc., it has become an important material in the cutting tool industry. The following briefly introduces the advantages and characteristics of diamond single crystal cutting tools.
1. High hardness
Diamond is the hardest substance in nature. Its hardness is 250 times that of steel and 5,000 times that of aluminum, which enables diamond tools to cut and process hard materials such as metals, ceramics, and composite materials. It has strong wear resistance and protects machine tools. Spindle and workpiece, prolonging the service life of the equipment.
2. Good thermal stability
Diamond single crystal tools have good thermal stability because diamond has a small coefficient of thermal expansion and good thermal conductivity. In complex cutting processes such as high-speed cutting, high temperature and high pressure, diamond tools can maintain shape stability, and will not expand and deform like steel due to high temperature.
3. Precision and wear resistance
The manufacturing precision and processing quality of diamond single crystal tools are very high, and they can cut perfectly on small details without grinding or reprocessing. Therefore, the use of diamond single crystal tools can reduce the reprocessing rate of some products with high processing precision and high surface finish requirements.
4. Wide range of applicable materials
The applicable materials of diamond single crystal cutting tools are very wide, and the materials that can be cut include iron, steel, hard alloy, non-metal, ceramics and other materials. It is suitable for the manufacture of precision parts in many fields such as aviation, automobiles, machinery, electronics, instruments, and medical treatment.
5. Long tool life
Diamond single crystal cutting tools have a longer life than traditional cutting tools. Traditional knives have obvious wear and damage, while diamond single crystal knives have a long service life, are not susceptible to wear, and have a long service life, reducing their downtime and cracks caused by wear during use.
6. High processing efficiency
Due to the high hardness, good wear resistance and high cutting efficiency of diamond single crystal tools, it can greatly improve the processing efficiency, make the processing accuracy higher and the surface quality better.
7. Reusable
The reason why diamond single crystal cutting tools can be widely used is that it can be reused and can be used many times. Therefore, the production cost of the tool is greatly reduced, and it helps to increase its productivity and efficiency.
In conclusion, diamond single crystal cutting tools have the advantages of high hardness, high precision, strong wear resistance, good thermal stability, wide range of application, long life and so on, which have become an irreplaceable and important material for modern manufacturing industry, and help to improve the processing quality, efficiency and economic benefits.
