Composites processing is fundamentally different from metal processing. In metal processing, the machined material is softer than the cutting tools, and the machined material will form continuous, serrated intermittent chip deformation during the cutting process. The processing of composite materials is itself a series of brittle destruction processes, in which the impact of the cutting edge causes the hard fiber to shatter, forming a powder or brush-like debris.
Composite materials are typical difficult to process materials, easy to tear, burr, delamination, thermal damage and other processing problems, the sharpness, wear resistance and stability of the cutting tools put forward extremely high requirements. For processing composite materials, the tool is usually cut with diamond coating tools or PCD tool.

PCD Milling Cutters for Carbon Fiber Machining
Carbon fiber materials are widely used in many fields such as aerospace and automotive industries, and possess excellent properties including high specific strength, high temperature resistance, friction resistance, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance. However, carbon fiber materials are prone to defects like delamination and tearing during processing, which adversely affect the quality of the machined surface.
More Super Hard PCD milling cutters are made of PCD material and feature good hardness, toughness, and fatigue resistance. They can effectively reduce defects such as delamination and tearing of carbon fiber materials during processing, improve the flatness and finish of the machined surface, and meet the requirements of high-precision processing.
