Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What
materials can these PCD SP inserts machine?
A: They excel with aluminum, copper, brass, magnesium alloys, carbon composites, and graphite. - Q: Can
they be used on ferrous metals like steel?
A: Not recommended—PCD reacts with iron at high temperatures and wears quickly. - Q: What
cutting speed is ideal?
A: Typically 800–3,000 SFM (240–900 m/min), depending on the material and setup. - Q: Do I
need coolant?
A: Optional. PCD performs well dry, but light coolant can further improve tool life. - Q: How
often should I index the insert?
A: Rotate or change when you observe flank wear of 0.1 mm or when surface finish degrades. - Q: Are
these inserts regrindable?
A: Yes, they can be professionally re-tipped or re-ground to extend life. - Q: What
toolholders are compatible?
A: Standard ISO toolholders designed for SP-style inserts with 11° relief. - Q: What
feed rates work best?
A: Typically 0.05–0.25 mm/rev, depending on part geometry and machine stability. - Q: How
do I store unused inserts?
A: Keep them in their original padded boxes to avoid chipping the diamond edge. - Q: What
surface finish can I expect?
A: Roughness (Ra) as low as 0.2 μm is achievable with the right parameters.
