Diamond cutter heads are very popular in the stone industry now, so what is the design principle of diamond cutter heads?
The cutting principle of the diamond head: the diamond tool is used to process the material so that the diamond cutting end is shaped. This phenomenon occurs when cutting all materials. In cutting stone, there will be some outstanding features. First: Although the term "sawing" is widely used, the beginning of the processing operation is a grinding process. The cutting edge is divided by a single geometric model to obtain two objects. The processing model is shown in Figure 1.
The factors that directly or indirectly affect the diamond cutting process model are:
1. The physical material properties of stone, such as: particle size and strength
2. The force between diamond and material
3. Tension distribution in stone
4. Tool temperature on the contact surface of the workpiece
Diamond cutter head
In the front of the diamond particles during processing, the tension is caused by the tangential force. In this area, chips are generated due to stretching and pressure. This pattern is called the initial diamond cutting end formation. Cutting debris overflows through the front groove and the middle of the particle.
During the cutting process, the stone shows its expansion and contraction performance to increase the maximum tension, and the most important thing is to achieve the minimum cutting thickness. The material removed is deformed by the pressure derived from the lower part of the diamond. After the diamond particles consolidated on the tool are removed, elastic recovery will occur, resulting in critical stress, which will cause the hard shape to break. The pattern arising from the stretching pressure is named the second diamond chip tip formation. The result of the cutting process is the appearance of a large amount of chips, which play a cooling role for the machining process.
