The key to the quality of pcd tool‘s edge in the choice of vitrified bond diamond grinding wheel particle size. The fin grit can processing fine cutting edge chipping but with the lower the grinding efficiency. So the PCD cutting tool sharpening process can be divided into three processing stages: coarse, fine, and super fine according to the accuracy, application, or failure degree of the cutting edge of the tool.

In order to ensure the quality of the cutting edge and improve the grinding efficiency, the clearance angle can be divided into large relief angle and small relief angle.
Use coarse-grit grinding wheel to first grind the large relief angle because the contact surface has a large grinding force and the grinding efficiency is high; then use fine-grit grinding wheel to sharpen the small relief angle and control the width of the small relief angle to about 0.1~0.3mm , Good quality of small sharpening of contact surface.
PCD tools are made of polycrystalline diamond tips and cemented carbide substrates sintered at high temperature and high pressure.The production process of PCD tools includes cutting of PCD blanks,welding PCD blanks to cemented carbide substrate ,cutting tools grinding, quality inspection, etc.Moresuperhard can provide all the consumables needed to produce PCD tools.
Cermet are widely used in various industries due to their excellent performance, but their grinding difficulty is often difficult. Although the hardness of metal ceramics is similar to that of cemented carbide, its processing challenges mainly come from high density and low thermal conductivity. This article will explore the characteristics of metal ceramic grinding and how to choose the right grinding wheel and binder to improve processing efficiency.
