PCD stands for “Poly Crystalline Diamond”, the hardest available cutting material. PCD is a synthetic diamond produced by sintering together selected diamond particles with a metal matrix at high temperature and high pressure. The result is 90-95% diamond content material that reaches a hardness close to 6000 HV. In addition, the small amount of the binder gives the material additional toughness that makes it an efficient cutting material.
By applying diamond coatings to your metal parts you can increase lifetime and minimize maintenance related downtime due to the replacement of high wear parts. In addition, any process parts enhanced by a wear resistant coating like Composite Diamond Coating® will produce more consistent product over an extended period of time. Most metal finishers agree that the presence of this unique coating may also allow new materials with other performance or cost advantages to be utilized.
