Brief Analysis of the Application of Hard Alloy Cutting Tools and Tool Materials Turning is the main process of mechanical manufacturing processing technology. Especially in the heavy machinery processing and manufacturing industry, the structural dimensions of workpieces can be considered huge, weighing up to 60-80t, or even hundreds of tons. The processing equipment can rotate with a diameter of 6m for heavy-duty horizontal cars and 10m for heavy-duty vertical cars. Compared with ordinary machining, heavy-duty turning has higher cutting depth, lower cutting speed, and slower feed rate. The machining allowance can reach 35-50mm on one side, coupled with poor balance of the workpiece during the cutting process, uneven distribution of machining allowance, and vibration caused by imbalanced parts of the machine tool, resulting in a significant consumption of maneuvering and auxiliary time in the dynamic imbalanced machining process. Therefore, in order to process heavy parts and improve productivity or machine equipment utilization, it is necessary to start with increasing the thickness of the cutting layer and the amount of feed, focusing on the cutting amount and tool selection, improving the tool structure and geometric shape, taking into account the strength characteristics of the tool material, in order to increase the cutting amount and significantly reduce the maneuvering time. Selection of Tool Materials The commonly used cutting tool materials include high-speed steel, hard alloy or tungsten carbide or cemented carbide, cubic boron nitride (CBN), ceramics, etc. The depth of heavy cutting can generally reach 30-50mm, with uneven allowance and a hardened layer on the surface of the workpiece. The tool wear in the rough machining stage is mainly in the form of abrasive wear: the cutting speed is generally 15-20m/min, although the speed value is in the area where chip accumulation occurs, the high temperature of cutting is enough to make the contact point between the chip and the front cutting surface in liquid state, reducing friction and suppressing the generation of chip accumulation. The selection of cutting tool materials should be resistant to damage and impact. Ceramic cutting tools have high hardness, but low bending strength and poor impact toughness, making them unsuitable for heavy-duty turning with uneven margins. CBN also has the same problem. Hard alloy has a lower coefficient of friction, which can reduce cutting force and cutting temperature during cutting, greatly improving tool durability, and is suitable for rough machining of high hardness materials and heavy-duty turning. Hard alloys are divided into tungsten cobalt (YG), tungsten cobalt titanium (YT), and tungsten carbide (YW). When processing steel materials, G-type hard alloys have good strength and toughness, but poor high-temperature hardness and toughness. During heavy turning, the workpiece undergoes large plastic deformation, severe friction, and high cutting temperature. Therefore, YG type hard alloys are rarely used in heavy turning. YT type hard alloys have high hardness and wear resistance, high heat resistance, anti bonding diffusion ability, and oxidation resistance. They are commonly used tool materials for heavy-duty turning and are suitable for processing steel materials. However, during low-speed turning, the unstable cutting process can lead to poor toughness of YT type alloys, resulting in edge breakage, especially when processing high-strength alloy materials; The durability of YT type hard alloys decreases rapidly and cannot meet the usage requirements. In this case, use W-type cutting tools or fine-grained, ultrafine grain alloy cutting tools (such as 643). Fine grained alloys have good resistance and are more suitable for processing cold hard cast iron products. The efficiency can be increased by more than twice compared to YW type cutting tools. Improving the turning speed of heavy-duty machining with hard alloy cutting tools is one of the key factors in improving productivity and also a favorable factor in shortening the production cycle. In the process, there are several strokes to cut off large margins, and each cutting depth is very small, while using hard alloy cutting tools for cutting,but utilizing the cutting performance of tungsten carbide cutting tools, the cutting speed will be greatly improved.

How to Use Tungsten Carbide Buttons Perhaps you are not aware that carbide buttons are also a common type of drill tool product, but everyone uses a device to extend its service life. Because only in this way can we bring more benefits. So how should tungsten carbide button drill bits be used to make them more reasonable and have a longer service life?Let's take a look together. The service life of cemented carbide button is determined by the inherent quality of the product, scientific selection, and accurate usage methods. During the use of drill bit products, it is necessary to observe the condition of the drill bit in a timely manner, especially for hard rocks. After using for a period of time, it is necessary to determine whether the product needs to be ground. The phenomenon of "snake skin" or cracking can be determined based on the hard alloy teeth; The rock drilling equipment is not disorderly, and the drilling speed has significantly decreased by 30%; The wear platform of carbide button teeth is judged based on three situations: the platform diameter has reached 1/3-1/2 of the teeth diameter. Ball toothed drill bits bear significant strain and stress during rock drilling, so they should not be used recklessly. Careful operation and use are necessary to achieve significant benefits. In addition, during the use of rock drilling, the driving force and impact energy should be reduced, and a large amount of flushing water should be used. Otherwise, without water, the temperature of the drill head will rise. Once the flushing water is opened, it will cause micro cracks in the drill head alloy, abnormal failure of the product, and dry drilling will create a risk of jamming and blockage of the drill head water hole. When one of the above three types of products is introduced, it indicates that the drill bit needs to be ground, otherwise the drilling efficiency will decrease, the rock's reaction force will increase, and the stress can increase by 50%. This not only causes alloy fracture, but also damages the drill bit body and even other supporting tools, accelerating the wear of rock drilling equipment.

Diameter Preserving Carbide Strip/Carbide Gauge Protection Tungsten Carbide Inserts for Well Protection of Drill Bit The diameter retaining strip is a hard alloy strip embedded around the drill bit by drill bit manufacturers to improve the lifespan of the drill bit and protect the drill body. Generally, the material used is hard alloy or tungsten carbide or cemented carbide, and some manufacturers use polycrystalline or diamond composite sheets to ensure the diameter of the drill bit. Specifications Generally, it is a long strip shape, and the specifications are determined based on the size of the drill bit. The most commonly used models are 10.5X 5.6X2.5, 13X5X4, 15.5X5.6X2.5, 20X7X4, 20X4X2.5, 20X6X4, 20X4X3, 21x5.6x2.5, 25x5x4,25x7x4, 27X4X2.5, 27x5.8x2.5, 27X6X3, 30X6X3, 33X6X3, 33x5.8x2.5 and various manufacturers can process it into various shapes and sizes according to requirements. New Trends With the continuous progress of drill bit technology, the requirements for drill bits are also increasing. Many drill bits use diamond composite discs as diameter protectors. There are generally two types: one is to use half discs to place the cutting surface outside as diameter protectors, which have higher strength and wear resistance. Another method is to cut the composite piece into a circular arc shape and place it under the outer edge of the drill bit, tightly connecting it to fully protect the outer diameter of the drill bit. Zhuzhou Kerui manufacture various types of carbide gauge protection for stabilizers. Customized carbide bar for well protection of drill bit or other tungsten carbide products are also available. Should you have any need in this carbide stabilizer inserts or other carbide products,pls feel free to contact us for more details.

Cemented Carbide Brazed Tip for Turning Threading Lathe Cutting Tools Tungsten carbide brazed tips are cutting tools made from a combination of tungsten carbide and a brazing material. The tungsten carbide is a hard and durable material known for its high resistance to wear, heat, and corrosion. It is formed by combining tungsten and carbon atoms through a chemical reaction. The brazing material, usually a silver-based alloy, is used to bond the tungsten carbide tip to a steel or other metal body. The brazing process involves heating the two materials to a high temperature and melting the brazing material, which then flows into the gaps between the tungsten carbide particles and the metal body. As the brazing material cools and solidifies, it forms a strong and durable bond. Carbide brazed tips are commonly used in various cutting applications, such as drilling, milling, turning, and threading. These carbide welding inserts are known for their excellent cutting performance, long tool life, and resistance to wear and heat.

Different forms of tungsten carbide teeth and tooth arrangement methods are suitable for drilling different rocks. Choosing the correct DTH drill bit is a prerequisite for achieving the best usage effect; 2. When installing a down-hole drill bit, it is necessary to gently place the drill bit into the down-hole impactor clamp sleeve, and do not collide with force to avoid damaging the drill bit tail handle or clamp sleeve; 3. During the rock drilling process, it is necessary to ensure that the compressed air pressure of the down-hole drill is sufficient. If the impactor is working intermittently or the powder discharge from the borehole is not smooth, the compressed air system of the down-hole drilling rig should be checked to ensure that there is no rock debris in the borehole during the drilling process; 4. If metal objects are found to fall into the hole, they should be promptly sucked out with a magnet or removed by other methods to avoid damaging the drill bit; 5. When replacing the drill bit, pay attention to the size of the drilled hole. If the diameter of the drill bit is excessively worn, but the blast hole has not been drilled yet, a new drill bit cannot be replaced to avoid jamming. You can use old drill bits that have been used and have a roughly the same wear diameter to complete the operation. Zhuzhou Kerui Cemented Carbide produce various types and grades of carbide buttons which are used for drill bits,etc. Should you have any need for carbide buttons or drill bits,pls feel free to contact us for more details.

What Factors Affect the Lifespan of Tungsten Carbide Tips/Inserts? Hard alloy tips are a commonly used tool for cutting materials, and their lifespan determines their effectiveness and economy. The lifespan of tungsten carbide blades are influenced by various factors, which will be explained in detail below. Firstly, the tip material. Tungsten carbide tips are mainly composed of cobalt based alloys and hard alloy particles, and different material ratios have a direct impact on the performance and lifespan of the blades. Generally speaking, the higher the content of cobalt based alloys, the better the toughness and impact resistance of the blade, but the hardness and wear resistance are relatively poor. The size and shape of hard alloy particles can also affect the service life of the blade. Generally speaking, the finer the particles and the more regular the shape, the better the cutting ability and wear resistance of the blade. Secondly, the tip structure. The structural design of the tip is also an important factor affecting its lifespan. A reasonable tip structure can improve the stability and stiffness of the blade, reduce the vibration and deformation of the blade. In addition, the selection of parameters such as the alloy layer thickness, back angle, and roll angle of the blade will directly affect the lifespan of the blade. Thirdly, cutting conditions. The cutting conditions mainly include parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate, and cutting depth. The cutting speed directly affects the friction and wear of the blade. Generally speaking, increasing the cutting speed can effectively improve the lifespan of the blade while ensuring processing quality. The feed rate and cutting depth can also affect the wear of the blade, and larger feed rates and cutting depths can accelerate the wear of the blade and reduce its lifespan. Fourthly, cutting materials. The hardness, plasticity, and thermal conductivity of cutting materials also directly affect the lifespan of the blade. Materials with higher hardness will increase the wear of the blade and reduce its lifespan; A material with good plasticity will reduce the stress and friction of the blade, and reduce the wear of the blade; Materials with high thermal conductivity will quickly remove the heat generated during the cutting process, reducing blade wear. Fifth, tool lubrication. Tool lubrication is crucial for reducing blade wear and improving cutting efficiency. Suitable lubricants can reduce friction and heat during the cutting process, reducing blade wear; At the same time, lubricants can also play a cooling and cleaning role, extending the service life of the tungsten carbide tips. Sixth, cutting method. Different cutting methods can also have an impact on the lifespan of the blade. For example, for certain materials, dry cutting is more beneficial for the lifespan of the blade than liquid cooling cutting, while liquid cooling cutting can improve cutting speed and surface quality. In addition to the above factors, there are other factors that may have an impact on the lifespan of hard alloy blades, such as the use and maintenance of cutting tools, and the way they come into contact with the workpiece. To improve the service life of hard alloy blades, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the above factors and select appropriate cutting tools and parameters based on specific processing needs and material characteristics. At the same time, regular inspection and maintenance of cutting tools, and timely replacement of severely worn blades are also important measures to extend the service life of blades.

Introduction of Tungsten Carbide Welding Tips Hard alloy welded tips or tungsten carbide brazed inserts/tips are a part of the tungsten carbide brazed turning tool, which is made by connecting the hard alloy welded tips and the ordinary structural steel cutter rod through welding.

Cost-effectiveness: While carbide welding inserts may have a higher initial cost compared to other cutting tool materials, their long lifespan and durability make them cost-effective in the long run. They can outperform and outlast other materials, reducing the need for frequent tool changes and increasing productivity.

Tungsten Carbide Buttons for Cone Drill Bits Roller bit or cone drill bit is a commonly used drilling tool for oil and gas drilling, consisting of a drill body and many rollers. It has the characteristics of simple structure and high work efficiency, and is widely used in various drilling operations. When the cone bit is working, the cutting teeth alternately contact the bottom of the well, resulting in low rock breaking torque, small contact area between the cutting teeth and the bottom of the well, high specific pressure, and easy entry into the formation; The total length of the working blade is large, thus reducing wear to a certain extent. Hard alloy button teeth are one of the important components of roller drills. It is located on the tooth edge of the drill bit and is responsible for cutting rocks and breaking strata. Tungsten carbide buttons are a type of alloy material produced by powder metallurgy technology, based on one or several refractory metal carbides (such as tungsten carbide, titanium carbide, tantalum carbide, niobium carbide, etc.) powder, with cobalt, nickel, and other metal powders as binders. They have excellent thermodynamic and chemical properties.These carbide buttons comes with different shapes such as carbide spherical button, carbide conical button, carbide flat-top button, carbide wedge button, carbide parabolic button, etc. In drilling operations, cemented carbide button inserts bear enormous impact and friction forces, so they need to have high hardness, impact resistance, and wear resistance to maintain a long working life. At the same time, hard alloy button tips also need to have a certain degree of toughness to resist the strong impact and fracture risk of rocks. Such design and material requirements make tungsten carbide buttons a key component with excellent performance, which can stably carry out drilling operations under complex geological conditions. Image of Roller Drill Bit/ Cone Drill Bits The continuous innovation and improvement of hard alloy button teeth in drilling technology is of great significance for improving drilling efficiency and reducing costs.
