Once the cost is widely considered, the harder cutting material becomes easier on WALLETOnce-
What is daunting is that by applying materials more efficiently, and by increasing user acceptance, not only is it becoming more and more affordable for the JC tooling.
Crystal diamonds (PCD)
Cutting tools have been recognized tool materials for many years, but have not been widely accepted in the woodworking industry, mainly because of their price ratio to carbide and high-
Speed steel tooling.
To be frank, many companies are watching the diamond tool suffer a \"sticker shock \".
\"Increased demand and more efficient manufacturing technologies help reduce costs.
The lower price, combined with the lower production and operation advantages, allows more woodworking operations to take a closer look at what can be provided by the polysilicon tooling.
\"Anyone who feels happy --go-
Glen miharovic, sales manager at Gladu Tools Inc. , said: \"In order to keep up with the worn-out Tools, the use of the JDBC Tools should be considered . \"
\"If you don\'t often interrupt the production cycle to replace the dull tools, it\'s amazing to get more production from existing machines.
\"Factors, including recognition of the benefits, affordability and product growth of diamond tools, are important issues that need to be familiar with when considering the tool.
Diamonds can be the best friends. If used properly, from a production point of view, there are a lot of benefits for polycrystal diamond cutters.
However, mistakes in identifying the right application for polycrystal diamond tools can be costly lessons.
Tool suppliers warn that not every manufacturer can use a polycrystal tool.
Scott Erickson, vice president of Leuco Tools, said: \"Up to now, polysilicon tooling is the simplest tool medium that is reasonable when producing many parts . \"
\"But for smaller producers, it will take years to pay for themselves.
\"One of the biggest benefits of the possible polycrystal diamond tool is its ability to cut for a long time without the need for replacement.
While it is difficult to measure the life expectancy of eachindidual the application of the tool, many mold suppliers say that the same 1,000 times as that of the tool canlast 80, higher than that of the hard alloy or
Speedsteel tooling.
Some factors affect the life of the drill bit, such as the material being cut, vibration, feed rate and spindle speed.
One of the ideal materials for PCDmachining mentioned by many tool manufacturers is the mid-fiber board because it is a homogeneous material with relatively consistent structure, free of foreign materials such as knots, stones and other foreign objects.
Andy wilbond, technical coordinator at FS tools corp, said: \"The use of Jujing router bits for processing medium fiber board cabinet doors is growing . \"
\"Compared with the traditional five-board, when processing the medium density board, the polysilicon performance is good, the company can make the cabinet door from one piece on the CNC router
A solid wood building.
\"Vibration is also the enemy of the polycrystal tool.
Because they have very brittle properties, excessive vibration can cause the diamond bit to break.
\"In router applications, spindle, bearing and Chuck are critical in good working condition.
The worn spindle causes the shaft to swing or \"beat\"
\"No, it could lead to bit bending,\" said Dave riguzi, vice president of engineering.
\"It\'s also wise to have a good environment --
The down system for machining parts is not allowed.
\"Feeding speed is also critical because uneven load pressure from manual feed can cause unnecessary pressure on the drill bit or blade and can cause tool failure. (see sidebar, p. 110)
Carlson & Co.
It is recommended to use some type of control feed to process the part.
Check with the atooling company representative which feed rate is best for each specific material to be processed.
Using the router bit, the cutting speed and the spindle speed can determine the lifetime of the DH router bit.
Colin Standish said: \"The feed rate is usually determined by the number of wings on the cutter and the diameter of the drill bit, but it is better to check with your tool supplier . \"E. M.
Sales Manager for Leitz tools systems
\"In the diamond drill bits made in Germany, they marked the maximum rpm on the cutter, which is the law.
\"Throw away diamonds?
Similar to carbide blade tools, tool manufacturers can also make them at one time
The use has greatly reduced the cost, and at the same time, it also provides a Jujing tool with a long service life.
It can be said that the biggest obstacle to the wider use of the tool is the cost.
\"The initial investment was a deterrent, and this argument was put forward in the 1940 s with carbide --
Hard Alloy mold, \"Mihalovicsaid.
Due to the improvement of the manufacturing technology of polycrystal diamond tools, manufacturers are able to pass on the savings of disposable diamond tools to customers.
\"In my opinion, the most important development of the JDBC tooling is to make better use of the raw materials themselves,\" Eriksson said . \".
\"Polycrystal diamond tool manufacturers have developed ways to more effectively analyze polycrystal diamond tablets, enabling them to reduce tool costs for end users.
While these types of tools are described as disposable, they can be serviced three times in most cases.
\"The low-cost diamond tip can now be produced by cutting down a single piece of the diamond plate with a hard alloy backing from a traditional one.
According to Willbond, these strips are oriented in the direction of 90 degrees towards the existing brazing method at the pod tip.
\"The effect of doing this is to expose only a relatively small area to become a cutting edge,\" Willbond said . \".
\"When this is half large with brazing
Round and segmented, the number of PCBs used for production tools has considerable savings.
Savings are in twice the order
The original cost is thirty.
The tools produced using this new technology have indeed been ground only once or twice, compared to the traditional one with only 10 times the procedural skills, however, for many users, the lower cost is attractive because among these users, there is a possibility that there will be a chance of a PCMs fragmentation through the application or the type of processing. \"\"SU (single use)
Or high disposable tools
\"Where the integrity of the profile is most important, volume applications can be used,\" said Mihalovic . \".
\"These tools are no different.
Tool manufacturers have simply passed on the cost-effectiveness of their CNC equipment to their customers.
\"However, the price of one-time diamond tools is much cheaper.
\"It\'s hard to say how much money a one-time tool saves,\" Standish said . \".
\"The price controls include the shape type, the number of diamonds in the drill bit, and the number of drill bits generated during production.
\"When asked about the potential growth areas of polycrystals, the reaction of tool suppliers varies.
Some views on the new development of polycrystal diamond cutters may be surprising.
\"There are applications (for PCD)
\"About the sides that every Carpenter should look at,\" Eriksson said . \".
\"Top and bottom trimming of laminate is an example.
There, the material being processed is uniform and the resulting tool life is very good.
\"When asked which type of PCMs tool market is growing fastest, many of the tool suppliers who responded were separated in their response.
Respondents mentioned that the areas where growth will be strongest in the future are the Jujing router drill bit and the circular saw blade.
\"From a sales point of view, the router bit is growing the fastest,\" said Mihalovic . \".
\"There are two reasons for their growth: the versatility of CNC machinery available on the market is very important and is molded by composite materials (such as medium fiber boards) the addition of straight line parts made has led to an increase in the demand for diamond tools.
Some tool suppliers say the saw blades will also experience greater growth in the future.
Philip Kaufman, president of Henderson Diamond and hard alloy, said: \"The diamond saw blades can now increase the stability of their bodies . \"
\"It is finally proved that the cost of the diamond board blade is very high --
It is effective when measuring them to its opponent hard alloy blades.

Router or work is not allowed-
Become loose.
This will cause the edge of the diamond to break apart.
Everything must be rigid.
More stable vibration
Free, the longer the diamond tool lasts. 2.
Do not cut any black metal;
Steel, etc.
This will destroy the frontier immediately. 3.
Do not force the router bit to overload or block.
This will result in severe high temperatures, and in turn, the touter will become hot and melt the solder that holds the polycrystal diamond tip on the steel body, resulting in a tool failure. 4.
Since this causes chatter and vibration, be sure to avoid intermittent cutting.
This leads to cutting of the cutting edge. 5.
Only climbing and cutting under the power control unit.
Do not climb the cut with your hands, because a free hand climb cut will grab the part and overload the head of the JDBC, causing the tool to fail. 6.
Please try to process the part using some type of control feed.
While free manual wiring is possible, CNC controlled machine tool operation with very sturdy fixed parts will ensure the longest tool life. 7.
Eliminate as much as possible and make the tool last more than 10 times.
