Carbide cutting tools can also be used to make drilling tools, mining tools, drilling tools, measuring measuring tools, wear parts, metal grinding, cylinder liners, precision bearings, nozzles, metal molds (such as drawing die, mold bolt, nut die, mold and a variety of fasteners, excellent performance carbide tools gradually replace the previous steel mold).
In 1923, Germany Shileteer to tungsten carbide powder was added into the 10% to 20% cobalt binder do, invented a new alloy of tungsten carbide and cobalt, hardness only to diamond, which is the world made of artificial into a first cemented carbide. When using this alloy tool steel cutting, the blade will wear quickly, even edge crack. 1929 United States 施瓦茨科夫 original ingredients added to the amount of titanium carbide and tungsten carbide duplex improved cutting tool steel performance. This is another achievement in the history of cemented carbide.

The past two decades, coated carbide also come out. 1969 Sweden successfully developed titanium carbide coated tool, the tool substrate is a cobalt tungsten titanium carbide or tungsten carbide cobalt, titanium carbide surface coating thickness of only a few microns, but compared with the same grade alloy cutting tools, 3 times longer service life, cutting speed increased by 25% to 50%. 1970s has emerged the fourth generation of coating tools used to machine difficult materials processing.

How carbide cutting tools sintering?
Carbide cutting tools is that one or more refractory metal carbides and binder metals, metal material made of powder metallurgy.
