Designed for drilling most types of ultra hard to soft materials. Drill the hardest materials available, where others will not work effectively. Series Drills designed for the Professional User, are produced with higher diamond concentration and higher grade, stronger, and more blocky shape diamond crystal then most diamond core bits you will find on the market today. Combined with unique pointed segment design Make our Series drills among top performers in the market place today.Count on our Unique Experience obtained from over 40 years of working in the Ultra Hard & Brittle Material Field to provide the right solution need for the more tougher and challenging applications
Series Drills are produced with unique Pointed Segment Design that offers the following advantages:
Segments are “Laser Welded” utilizing the latest technological process, that considers heavy loads and rugged conditions encountered in more challenging drilling applications, such as drilling heavily reinforced concrete or concrete with heavy amount of rebar. This makes sure that diamond segments will remain intact even in most difficult conditions and diamond core bit will not jam while in use.
Series Diamond Core Bits exhibit faster drilling speeds and more consistency then most other diamond core bits available today. Our proprietary bond chemistry, precision manufacturing methods, modern quality control methods, allow us to control and regulate the dozens of variables that affect core bit overall performance.
APPLICATION/TESTING EXAMPLE: We have tested these diamond core bit by drill into a 12″ thick test slab of 5,000 psi cure concrete with four 5/8″ rebar placed in the line of a cut. An rpm of 800 was used during this test. The time to drill a hole that included rebar was 5 minutes and 15 seconds. Without the rebar drilling time wasonly 3 minutes and 45 seconds.
Diamonds or CBN Crystals are activated only at the exposed layer. As Bond Matrix layer begin to wear out, diamonds in a new Bond Matrix layer are immediately activated, substituting the already used up diamond layer. The SMART CUT® Diamond Hybrid Bond makes sure every diamond is in the right place and at the right time, working where you need it most.
The newly exposed diamonds don’t effect diamonds already working on the material. Unlike many other diamond bonds, diamonds in a SMART CUT® Bond remains sharp and grow sharper with each cut, prolonging product life and consistent performance.
This advanced formulated open diamond bond design insures minimal chipping, fast cut, constant speed of cut, minimal cutting noise, and most important of all, consistent performance.
Sintered (Metal Bond) diamond tools have multiple layers of diamonds impregnated inside the metal matrix. Diamonds are furnaces sintered in a matrix made of iron, cobalt, nickel, bronze, copper, tungsten, alloys of these powders or other metals in various combinations. Metal bonded diamond tools are “impregnated” with diamonds. This means that selected diamonds are mixed and sintered with specific metal alloys to achieve the best cutting performance possible on any materials such as sapphire, advanced ceramics, optics, glass, granite, tile and etc. The metal bond surrounding the diamonds must wear away to continuously keep re-exposing the diamonds for the diamond tool to continue cutting. Sintered (metal bonded) diamond tools are recommended for machining hard materials from 45 to 75 on rockwell scale (5 to 9.5 on mohe’s scale of hardness).
Only the highest quality synthetic diamonds and raw materials are used in the manufacturing process. The highest quality standards and product consistency is maintained, using sophisticated inspection and measurement equipment.
SMART CUT® Dry Diamond Core Bits are the best investment you can make! Although they may cost more than Dry Diamond Core Bits They will more than pay for themselves in terms of overall performance and provide best Return on Investment.
In addition to the standard SMART CUT series Diamond Core Bits typically available from stock. We can produce large variety of custom diamond Core Bits and tools per your specification or drawing
