Imagine a material that is harder than steel, stays sharp even at high temperatures, and hardly ever wears out. It's not science fiction, it's real - it's polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN), a man-made superhard material. The tools made from this material are PCBN tools, which are like “superheroes” for machining hard and brittle materials, with superpowers that ordinary tools can't match.
First of all, PCBN tool has a “invincible body”. Its hardness is second only to diamond, can easily cope with a variety of high hardness material challenges, such as hardened steel, hard cast iron and so on. Ordinary tools in the face of these “hard bones”, often quickly wear blunt, while PCBN tools can remain sharp, a long time to fight without defeat.
Secondly, PCBN tools also have the super power of “high temperature resistance”. Even at high temperatures, it maintains stable performance and will not soften or deform due to increased temperatures. This means that it can carry out high-speed cutting and dry cutting, which not only improves machining efficiency, but also reduces the reliance on coolant and is more environmentally friendly.
In addition, PCBN tools also have the “invulnerable” ability. It has a high degree of chemical inertia to the iron group elements, that is to say, in the processing of iron and steel materials, it will not have a chemical reaction with the material, thus avoiding the diffusion of the tool wear, and always maintain a sharp cutting edge.
Finally, PCBN tools also have the advantage of “fast thermal conductivity”. It can quickly conduct the heat generated during the cutting process, effectively reduce the cutting temperature, reduce the thermal damage of the tool, but also improve the quality of the machined surface.
With these superpowers, PCBN tools have made their mark in various fields:
In the field of automobile manufacturing, it is used for machining engine blocks, cylinder heads, crankshafts, camshafts and other key components to ensure that the automobile engine's strong power and durability.
In the field of aerospace, it is used for the processing of aircraft engine blades, turbine discs, landing gear and other precision parts, for the safe flight of the aircraft escort.
In the field of mold manufacturing, it is used to process injection molds, die-casting molds, stamping molds, etc., providing high-precision molds for the molding of various products.
In the field of bearing manufacturing, it is used to process inner and outer rings and rolling bodies of bearings to ensure the smooth operation and long life of bearings.
In a word, PCBN tool is like a “superhero” with superpowers, it is with very high hardness, wear resistance, thermal stability and chemical inertness, in the processing of hard and brittle materials show incomparable advantages, and become an indispensable and important tool for modern manufacturing industry. With the continuous progress of science and technology and the continuous expansion of the application field, PCBN tools will play a more important role in contributing to the development of the manufacturing industry.
