High-performance milling tools from Wirtgen with a polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tip have significantly increased the productivity of a major road builder from New England.

PCD milling tools are particularly suitable for surface layer rehabilitation thanks to their up-to-date tool geometry and materials.

In PCD tools or inserts, segments of the diamond are bonded, typically using brazing, to a carbide substrate. PCD elements are produced by sintering micron-sized synthetic diamond powders to bond ...

The Endurance Diamond fingerjoint cutter tool from Peak Toolworks is strong enough to cut through all types of solid wood materials, including wood with knots and defects, the company says. It can ...

The PCD Edge system from Methods EDM, Sudbury, Maine profiles polycrystalline diamond cutting tools.

Additive manufacturing can achieve complex designs for effective chip evacuation and optimize coolant hole and cooling channel locations to improve tool life by 30% or more. STAR CUTTER CO., in ...

Compared to cemented carbide tools, PCD tools have a longer tool life, especially at higher cutting speeds. The geometric shape of cutting edges and tool material greatly influences the performance of ...

Multi-pronged approach closes the loop between design and production of Type 3, 4 and 5 pressure vessels, enabling simulation of as-built composite tanks to improve performance and storage capacity ...

Frezite's offering primarily consists of made-to-order polycrystalline diamond or PCD tools for metal and wood applications.
