Benefits of PCD Tooling
Polycrystalline diamond tools are known for their long cutting life, ability to cut at higher speeds, and superior performance when cutting nonferrous materials like aluminum and composites. Let’s have a look at their benefits. PCD tooling was formerly considered a niche product because it could only be used on a few materials. Thanks to production techniques and materials developments, PCD tooling may now be used in several applications, including aluminum, composites, and abrasive polymers. PCD equipment can produce a high-quality surface finish without any further processing. Producers can save time and money while maintaining the same level of quality as a consequence. The tool life of solid carbide tools is shorter, ranging from a few days to several weeks, depending on production levels. In contrast, PCD tooling is designed to endure months, resulting in less downtime. Because they offer more efficient workflows, fewer tool changes, planer knives , and faster cycle t...
