Brief Introduction Of The Tool Manufacturing Process

Brief introduction of the tool manufacturing process

1.Design of tool: This needs to determine the type, geometric Angle and structural parameters of the tool. These are generally based on the purpose and the use of the environment for the tool. The corresponding drawing will be prepared after these elements are determined. 2. Selection of tool materials: the commonly used tool materials are carbide, polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN), polycrystalline diamond (PCD)and so on. The application range of Carbide tools to cut is wide which includes both high and low hardness. PCBN and PCD tools are usually used for cutting materials with higher hardness. Tool makers can choose according to their different needs. 3. Tool manufacturing: there are some tool manufacturing methods such as forging molding, cutting molding, and casting molding. 4.Tool detection: including appearance, surface roughness, shape size detection and so on. These parameters usually detected by tool testing instrument with B/W CCD camera with high resolution (a measurement of no contact for tools edge light and transmitted light and the light on the geometry of the tools ). The above is a brief introduction of the tool manufacturing process.Every step of the way must be taken seriously in   order to create a tool that satisfies the customer.
