Close-Up of the Bonding Material in Diamond Segments – Key Component for Cutting Performance and Durability

Bonding Matrix

The diamond bonding process plays a crucial role in the production of compact and purpose-adapted cutting segments.

The bonding matrix holds the diamond crystals firmly in place.

The matrix consists of

Neutral materials
iron

cobalt

nickel

Hard materials (up to 80%)
(Tungsten carbide

hard metals

Soft materials

Bronze

brass

and other auxiliary materials

Diamond grains are worn down to the level of the bond. This will significantly reduce productivity and decrease tool life.

Diamonds break out. This will significantly reduce productivity and decrease tool life.

Each exposed diamond features a large trailing ”bontail“. Sufficient protrusion ensures optimum productiviy and a long durability for your tools.

Insufficient Bond Wear

Diamond grains are worn down to the level of the bond. This will significantly reduce productivity and decrease tool life.

Excessive Bond Wear

Bond is too hard.

Diamond grains are too coarse.

Heavily reinforced concrete  – Bond composition is not adequate.

Causes

The diamonds will break out of the bond, wich significantly reduces productivity and decreases service life.

Causes

The bond is too soft.

 Bond composition is not adequate for extremely abrasive material.
