Title:
DIAMOND TOOL INSERTS PRE-FIXED WITH BRAZE ALLOYS AND METHODS TO MANUFACTURE THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004071710
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A superabrasive tool blank whose carbide side is affixed with a suitable braze alloy, for subsequent shaping into desired tool geometry and induction-brazed forming a cutting tool. The use of the pre-coated braze alloy in the tool blank forming cutting tools allows the direct brazing of the superabrasive blank onto a tool insert, thus minimizing operations and labor time involved for the shaping and handling of the braze substrate in the process of the prior art, i.e., the brazing of the assembly of the superabrasive tool blank, braze alloy, and tool insert. The pre-brazed blank can be conveniently used in automated brazing operations for forming cutting tools.
