PCD
DURATEC supplies high-quality PCD grades that are specifically developed
to meet the requirements of modern tool manufacturers.
Polycrystalline Diamond (PCD) is one of the most high-performance cutting materials in modern machining technology.
Thanks to its extreme hardness, excellent wear resistance, and outstanding thermal stability, PCD enables highly efficient machining processes-especially when working with non-ferrous metals, aluminum alloys, composite materials (CFRP/GFRP), graphite, and abrasive materials.
For manufacturers of turning and milling tools, PCD is therefore indispensable whenever maximum tool life, high-precision surface finishes, and high cutting speeds are required.
Our PCD grades stand out due to:
- high wear resistance for extended tool life
- excellent thermal conductivity for stable machining processes
- fine, homogeneous grain structures for precise cutting-edge preparation
- consistent quality for reproducible tool performance
