PCD is Polycrystalline Diamond which is manufactured by sintering together carefully selected diamond particles. Initially formed at very high temperatures and pressure in the presence of a solvent/catalyst metal. The results are an extremely tough inter grown mass of randomly orientated diamond crystals. Finally, these are bonded to a tungsten carbide substrate. This is why PCD,…
A tapped hole has threads in the hole’s inside edges using the tapping process. A tapped hole is required for securing a fastener where a nut and bolt is not an option. Used when engineering metals; the threaded component is held with the machined internal tapped hole. So, what is the difference? They are similar,…
Pre milling features are more common on smaller edge banders now, rather than just on higher production machines.
