The Diamond: Revolutionizing Cutting and Grinding in Industries

The Diamond: Revolutionizing Cutting and Grinding in Industries
Nov 27, 2023

In the world of cutting and grinding, there are two types of diamonds - natural and synthetic industrial diamonds.  While both have their unique qualities, synthetic industrial diamonds are known for their consistent characteristics and superior strength, making them more suitable for sawing, cutting, and grinding applications.

During the cutting process, diamonds endure immense stress.  To ensure optimal cutting speed and lifespan, diamond crystals with blocky shapes and smooth faces, known as cubo-octahedrons, are required.  These crystals possess good cutting edges, have a low breakdown rate, and offer greater strength to withstand the colossal stresses they encounter throughout their working life.

Diamond Blade Cutting

Diamonds find their applications in a wide range of materials, from the hardest granites and heavily reinforced concrete to soft marbles and limestones.  This versatility allows for the use of various diamond grits, with each meticulously graded for specific characteristics.

The controlled breaking and cracking of diamond grit from the cutting edge is crucial for maintaining cutting efficiency.  As a blunt diamond breaks off, a new sharp diamond takes its place, ensuring an uninterrupted cutting process.  The strength of the bond between the diamond and the cutting segment depends on the intended application.  It holds each diamond securely, ensuring effective cutting or grinding action.

As the cutting process proceeds, the bond erodes gradually, exposing fresh diamond crystals.  This controlled erosion is vital to the overall performance of the cutting or grinding action.  With each worn or blunt diamond breaking out, a new crystal takes its position, continuing the cutting process in tandem with the blunting of the original diamond.  This wear characteristic of the bond determines the speed of cut and product life.

The hardness of the bond is tailored to the abrasive nature of the material being cut.  For instance, a product designed to cut hard engineering bricks will have a bond with higher bronze content, ensuring the necessary softness for the bond to wear and expose the diamonds.  Conversely, a segment used for cutting asphalt would contain more tungsten in its bond, as it needs extra durability to withstand the abrasive nature of aggregates within the asphalt.

Using a diamond blade on the wrong application can lead to premature wear or a lack of diamond exposure, rendering the product ineffective.  The selection of an appropriate bond hardness ensures optimal performance and longevity, taking into account the specific characteristics of the material being cut.

The Diamond

The matrix or bond, which holds the diamond in place, plays a fundamental role in determining the performance of the product.  This strong holding matrix is created using various metals such as copper, cobalt, aluminum, tungsten, iron, manganese, bronze, and rare earth metals.  These metals, in powdered form, are meticulously bonded with diamonds to form the cutting segment, utilizing advanced powder technology.

In conclusion, diamonds have revolutionized cutting and grinding in industries, allowing for precise and efficient shaping of various materials.  The utilization of synthetic industrial diamonds, combined with the appropriate bond hardness and the careful grading of diamond grits, ensures optimal performance and durability.  Embracing the power of diamonds has unlocked endless possibilities in the world of cutting and grinding.
