According to the cutting movement mode and the corresponding blade shape, the tool can be divided into three categories.

General-purpose tools, such as turning tools, planers, milling cutters (not including shaped turning tools, shaping planers, and forming cutters), boring tools, drills, reamers, reamers, saws, etc.; forming tools, cutting edges of such tools It has the same or nearly the same shape as the cross-section of the workpiece to be machined, such as forming lathes, forming planers, forming cutters, broaches, conical reamers, and various thread cutting tools, etc.; Teeth or similar workpieces, such as hobs, pinions, shavers, bevel gears, bevel gear cutters, etc.

Diamond-coated cutters have different life spans

The
As with any other tool, the life of diamond-coated tools varies, depending on the material being cut, the feed rate and cutting speed selected, and the geometry of the workpiece. In general, diamond-coated cutters for processing graphite are 10-20 times longer than uncoated carbide cutters and may even be longer in some cases. In this way, you can use a single tool to perform almost any machining task, without the need for tool change due to tool wear, to avoid machining interruptions and recalibration, which makes it possible to achieve unattended processing. It is also entirely possible to obtain long tool life in the processing of composite materials.

Coated tool

Since the advent of tool coating technology, it has played an important role in the improvement of tool performance and processing technology. After the coating technology applied a layer of film to traditional tools, the tool performance has undergone tremendous changes. The main coating materials are: Tic, TiN, Ti(C,N), TiALN, ALTiN and so on. Coating technology has been applied to end mills, reamers, drills, compound hole machining tools, gear hobs, pinion cutters, shaving cutters, forming broaches, and various machined indexable inserts to meet high-speed cutting operations Strength, high hardness of cast iron (steel), forged steel, stainless steel, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, magnesium alloys, aluminum alloys, powder metallurgy, non-metallic materials such as the production of different technical requirements.
