What tools can use aluminum parts processing?
You can select the following tools when machining aluminum parts:
1) high-speed steel, which is often said that the white blades, and its hardness is generally, but toughness, easily sharpened blade, suitable for processing low hardness of steel and a number of cutting materials such as plastic ..
2) class carbide welding blade, generally divided tungsten cobalt and tungsten-cobalt titanium categories, the former for machining cast iron, there are commonly used, the smaller the number, the higher the hardness YG8-YG3, etc., but also a corresponding decline in the strength of the latter suitable for processing steel, there YT30-YT15, but also the smaller the number, the higher the hardness. there is also a so-called universal alloy, YW class, there YW1, YW2 like, high hardness, strength is not good, only suitable for finishing.
3) coating class cutting insert. Such blades are coated on the substrate superhard material, usually made of machine folder knife. It is very much the type of blade, suitable for a variety of materials processing, such as aluminum processing, is used in the production line, is characterized by not grinding, they are unable to grinding.
4) ceramic. Ceramic blade developed rapidly in recent years, has excellent performance in terms of hardness, red hardness aspects, suitable for high speed processing of high temperature, but due to the price factor and other applications or less.
5) superhard materials. Cubic boron nitride and diamond, synthetic polycrystalline diamond represented the former processing broader, almost all materials can be processed. The latter is not suitable for the processing of iron-based products, only suitable for non-ferrous metal cubic boron nitride (PCBN) tool for a class can be said to represent the new direction of the development of the tool, its extreme hardness and red hardness chemical stability can be said that the tool users dream about. its strength is slightly less, require sophisticated machine use, and less impact, but for cutting HRC62 hardened steel also easy, can withstand 12m / s high.
