Customization product
I’ve been using this product for several months now, and it stands out as one of the best tools for customization in manufacturing. Whether you're working with metal, plastic, or composites, this tool adapts easily to different workflows and materials. Highly recommended for teams looking for precision, efficiency, and customization all in one.
Frequently Asked Questions
1.
Which materials can it machine best?
Non-ferrous metals (aluminum, copper, brass), high-silicon alloys, graphite,
and fiber-reinforced composites.
2.
What advantage does PCD offer over carbide?
Up to 10–20× longer life, superior heat resistance, and finer surface finish.
3.
Can it cut ferrous materials?
No—iron-based alloys can degrade the diamond edge; use CBN for ferrous work.
4.
Is it suitable for CNC lathes?
Yes, fully compatible with modern CNC turning centers and multi-axis lathes.
5.
Can the tool be re-sharpened?
Yes, professional diamond-grinding services can re-tip or re-hone PCD edges.
6.
What cutting speeds are recommended?
Typically 500–1200 m/min for aluminum; adjust based on material and machine
rigidity.
7.
Do I need coolant?
Often runs dry or with minimal mist; coolant is optional depending on heat
management needs.
8.
How do I store the tool?
Keep in a padded case away from shock or vibration to protect the brittle
diamond edge.
9.
What are typical tolerances achievable?
±0.005 mm (±0.0002") is common with a well-maintained machine.
10.
Where can I order custom profiles?
Most precision-tool manufacturers or PCD specialists can design and grind
profiles to your CAD drawing.
