WHAT WE DO
As a special service we offer the re-grinding/re-sharpening of PCD/PCBN Inserts. In many cases the edge of the tool gets chipped or loses its sharpness. As a result the surface finish loses its quality. Instead of just throwing the Insert away and use a new one it can in many cases just be re-ground/re-sharpened to give it a “new-like” cutting edge at a fraction of the price of a new Insert. In addition we offer service on natural Diamond tools such as Diaform Dressers, Contact Lense tools and Diamond Lathe tools. If the cutting edge is not broken but gone blunt, it can be re-sharpened and this is a good cost saving.
CUBIC BORON NITRIDE – CBN
CBN is an artificially synthesized material exceeded in hardness only by diamond. Unlike diamond, CBN is stable under conditions of high temperature (up to 1000 degrees). Normally, CBN is suitable to machine the hardened ferrous or super alloy materials. Like polycrystalline diamond, CBN is available in many shapes and sizes, also different grades is for different applications. CBN tools permit metal cutting at feed and speeds, much higher than conventional cutting tool materials. CBN tools are very good at turning, boring the hard materials, which otherwise can be formed only by grinding. Because CBN tools maintain a sharp cutting edge, surface finishing are excellent, close tolerance and dramatic productivity increases can be guaranteed.
