With the progress of wood industry technology, various wood composites, veneer panels, wood, and bamboo integrated materials are increasingly used for furniture, flooring, roofing panels, and engineered wood parts, so the requirements for machining tungsten carbide cutting tools are further improved. The commonly used tool materials are carbon tool steel, alloy tool steel, high-speed steel, carbide, ceramic, diamond, cubic boron nitride, etc. The most used materials are high-speed steel and carbide. And with the development of automation in the woodworking and wood processing industries, carbide, a highly wear-resistant material, has become the main woodworking tool material. So, do you know the advantages of tungsten carbide cutting tools and the precautions to use them?

Here is the content list:

l Tungsten carbide cutting tool advantages

l Note for choosing tungsten carbide cutting tools

l Maintenance precautions for tungsten carbide cutting tools

Tungsten carbide cutting tool advantages

(1) Compared with high-speed steel, the hardness of commonly used tungsten carbide cutting tools is 89~93 HRA, and it can still maintain high hardness at 800~1000℃.

(2) The cutting speed of tungsten carbide cutting tools can be increased by 4~10 times.

(3) Tool durability can be increased by several times to dozens of times compared with HSS.

Note for choosing tungsten carbide cutting tools

(1) Tungsten carbide cutting tools should be selected from YG class carbide which has greater toughness.

(2) There are coarse grain, fine grain, and general grain in YG class, when the composition is the same, the strength of coarse grain alloy is high while the hardness and wear resistance are slightly reduced. Fine-grain alloy can improve the hardness and increase the wear resistance, while the strength is not significantly reduced.

(3) Cemented carbide is brittle, it should be used for wood processing only after a reasonable selection of wedge angle according to its grade and cutting conditions such as material to be processed and feed rate.

(4) After choosing the grade of carbide correctly, the model of the tungsten carbide cutting tool should also be chosen reasonably.

Maintenance precautions for tungsten carbide cutting tools

(1) Keep the tool clean, remove resin, wood chips, and other dirt from the wood after use, and use standard industrial solvents to clean the tool.

(2) Applying a small amount of machine oil will prevent the surface of the tool from rusting, and clean all stains from the tool shank to prevent slippage during use.

(3) Never resharpen the tool and change the shape of the tool without permission, because every tungsten carbide cutting tool grinding process needs professional grinding equipment as well as professional grinding skills, otherwise it will easily cause the edge to break and produce accidents. And with the development of automation in the woodworking and wood processing industries, tungsten carbide cutting tools, a highly wear-resistant material, have become the main woodworking tool material.

In general, tungsten carbide cutting tools are the company's main product. For consumers, tungsten carbide endmills are effective. The company will be more committed to producing more and better tungsten carbide endmills for consumers.
