Definitions
- This invention relates to a method of producing a tool insert including at least one ultra-hard abrasive body at an edge thereof.
- South African Patent No. 84/6619 teaches providing a tungsten carbide substrate with a single recess therein, brazing an abrasive compact, for example a diamond abrasive compact, into the recess, and cutting the product to form a single tipped insert.
- an abrasive compact for example a diamond abrasive compact
- European Patent No. 278703 teaches providing a tungsten carbide substrate with a plurality of recesses therein, filling each recess with a layer of abrasive particles, e.g. diamond or cubic boron nitride (CBN) in an organic binder, subjecting the assembly to high temperature/high pressure to bond the abrasive particles together and to the carbide support, and cutting the product to form multiple tipped inserts.
- abrasive particles e.g. diamond or cubic boron nitride (CBN) in an organic binder
- United States Patent No. 5,676,496 teaches a method of producing a multiple tipped insert which is similar to the method of EP 278703, except that the tungsten carbide substrate includes holes which pass right through the substrate, rather than recesses in the substrate.
- a method of producing tool insert which includes the steps of:
- the substrate may, for example, be steel but is preferably a cemented carbide substrate.
- the recesses may be pre-sintered, i.e. formed in the substrate before sintering, or may be die sunk or ground into the substrate.
- the recesses may be of any suitable shape and size, and of any suitable number.
- the recesses are arranged in an ordered pattern to facilitate the cutting step, step (d).
- the recesses may be arranged in spaced rows and columns, preferably equidistantly spaced, and may, for example, be circular in shape. Other recess shapes are possible.
- the area of the substrate adjacent each recess may be shaped to provide any tool insert cut therefrom with a positive or a negative chip breaker. This may be achieved by providing a region adjacent at least some of the recesses higher or lower than the top exposed surfaces of the abrasive bodies located in those recesses.
- the ultra-hard abrasive body is preferably a polycrystalline diamond body, also known as PCD, or a polycrystalline cubic boron nitride body, also known as PCBN or CVD diamond.
- CVD diamond is diamond produced by chemical vapour deposition.
- the body must be of substantially the same size and shape as the recess in which it is to be placed, preferably so as to be a snug fit therein.
- the top surface of the body may be in the same plane as the surface of the substrate in which the recess is formed or in a different plane where a chip breaker is present, as described above.
- the body may be unbacked or backed with a suitable backing layer such as a cemented carbide, e.g. cemented tungsten carbide.
- Each recess will generally have a base and side walls.
- a layer of a suitable braze will typically be located between the base of the recess and a surface of the body and the temperature raised to cause the braze to bond the surface and base together.
- a suitable braze for polycrystalline diamond or CVD diamond bodies is a copper/silver alloy braze and for polycrystalline cubic boron nitride bodies a high temperature active braze containing a reactive element such as titanium.
- step (c) the bodies will all preferably be simultaneously brazed into the recesses, e.g. by vacuum brazing, or brazing in a reduced or air controlled atmosphere.
- step (d) the substrate is cut through the recesses containing the bodies, for example by EDM cutting. The cutting may be perpendicular to the substrate surface in which the recesses are formed or at any other angle to this surface.
- the result is at least one and generally a plurality of tool inserts each comprising a section of the substrate to which is bonded at least one ultra-hard abrasive body at an edge thereof, and more preferably two or more ultra-hard abrasive bodies at edges thereof.
- the ultra-hard abrasive bodies will provide cutting edges for the tool insert.
- Different ultra-hard abrasives may be used for a single insert. This allows for an insert having different ultra-hard abrasive bodies at each or some of the edges to be produced.
- the tool inserts may be processed to ensure that the ultra-hard abrasive bodies are flush with a surface of the substrate.
- the tool inserts produced by the method of the invention may be used in tools for cutting, machining, drilling or abrading of workpieces and may also be used as a wear part.
