Tungsten Carbide Extrusion Tap Introduction

The tungsten carbide extrusion tap is a type of threaded cutter used in inner thread machining according to the principle of metal plastic deformation, and its inner thread machining is chipless machining. It is suitable for the tapping towards copper alloy and aluminium alloy of low intensity and relatively high plasticity and also stainless steel and low-carbon steel with low hardness and high plasticity.
 
The threads processed by tungsten carbide extrusion taps is of good surface roughness and their metal fibers do not break and there is a chilling layer in their surface which can increase threads’ intensity and abrasion resistance. It has fundamentally solved the chip removal difficulty in tapping. Due to its chipless characteristic, it makes the thread fitting much easier, thus is widely applied in many industry areas such as electronics and plastics.
 
The tungsten carbide extrusion tap is more suitable for ferrous metal machining. It makes metals be out of shape through squeezing them, and thus produces inner threads. The inner threads formed by squeezing has continuous metal fibers and high tensile and shear strength and also relatively good surface roughness. However, there are higher requirements towards the bottom hole of extrusion tap: If the bottom hole is too too large, then base metals will be fewer and the minor diameter of inner threads will be oversize; if the bottom hole is too small, then the metal being closed and squeezed will have nowhere to go, causing the breaking off of the tap.

Tungsten Carbide Straight Flute Tap Introduction

The tungsten carbide straight flute tap is typically used in the thread machining of engine lathes, drilling machines and tapping machines, with a relatively low cutting speed.It performs well in the machining of high hardness materials and materials easier to cause tool damage, and powdery materials cutting.
 
The tungsten carbide straight flute tap has widest universality. It can process both non-ferrous metal and ferrous metal. However, this characteristic is also companied by the downside of being able to doing many things, but being not particularly good at something. It may possess two, four, or six teeth in the cutting part. Short taps are used in blind holes, while long taps in through holes. As long as the bottom hole is deep enough, longer tap should be applied as far as possible, because if there are more teeth to share cutting load, there will be longer tool life.

Tungsten Carbide Spiral Pointed Tap Introduction

Tungsten carbide spiral pointed tap is also known as EX-POT, mainly used in borehole and deep thread machining, and is of high intensity and cutting speed, long service life, stable dimension and clear threads (especially fine pitch threads). Generally, it has the same straight groove as the straight flute tap, and is a kind of its deformation. In the front part of tungsten carbide spiral pointed taps, there is a helical groove specially designed which can squeeze chip out of the hole with the help of rotation and at the same time avoid tap demage caused by cutting conjection. That is why tungsten carbide spiral pointed taps have higher cutting speed than straight flute taps in high precision threads processing.
 
Tungsten carbide spiral tap has larger core and higher intensity and thus can withstand higher cutting force. It performs well in non-ferrous metal, stainless steel and ferrous metal processing. In the borehole processing, spiral pointed tap should be applied with priority.

Tungsten Carbide Tap Advantages

Tungsten carbide cutting tools have gradually replaced high-speed steel tools in turning machining, and so does the tungsten carbide tap. It has been used more and more often in threaded hole machining. Compared with the high-speed steel, the tungsten carbide is of higher hardness and but also higher brittleness, so when using tungsten carbide taps in tapping process, there exits a chip disposal problem. Despite all that, the tungsten carbide tap is still of high efficiency and long service life when used in processing cast iron and aluminium alloy materials. In car industry, the reducing of tap changing times is very competitive and crucial, which can be accomplished by using the tungsten carbide tap due to its long tool life. Using coated tungsten carbide taps with a samll helical angle to perform tapping machining on alumimium workpiece with a silicon content of about 1.5 % can obtain excellent machining effect. What is more, a tap made of submicron-grain tungsten carbide possesses higher toughness while maintains the same hardness, thus can work well in quenched steel, plastics and nickel base alloy cutting.

The Differences Between Real and Fake Gold 1

It's All About the Physics

All the ways to determine the authenticity of a coin or bar of precious metal are based on differences between physical properties of the valuable metal and the lesser metals used to swindle the buyer.  Each metal is an element, meaning it can't be further broken down into another element (without very heavy equipment like a particle accelerator, which is not practical).  An element has its own unique density, conductivity, reaction to acids, melting point, conductivity of sound through the metal, etc.  A fake gold coin will necessarily have an exterior of gold to help fool the buyer, regardless of the contents of the interior and whether the coin is created from an alloy (mix of metals) or a slug of base metal with a cladding or plating of gold on the outside.

Visual Inspection

The easiest place to start is the visual appearance of each metal.  Does the coin look gold in color?  Gold has a dull golden shine. Once you've spent time handling gold, this is the first give away.  Keep in mind that some coins are 99.99 percent pure gold.  Others are designed for circulation and have some copper and silver alloyed with the gold.  These coins have a reddish tint.  Jewelers use these properties to make many different shades of gold for jewelry.

The color difference is exaggerated in these photos, but it gives an idea of the difference between 99.99% pure gold coins (left) and 90% pure gold coins with an alloy of copper and silver that make the coin harder and able to circulate (right).

Density

The physical characteristics of metals are immutable and this is the counterfeiter's first decision; which metal(s) to use for the fake. Each metal has characteristics like density, malleability, the speed of sound in the metal and so on.

A-type blade is used in 90° bullnose tools, facing tools, etc.
B-type blade is used in straight bullnose tools, facing tools, hole boring cutters, etc.
C-type blade is used in straight and bend bullnose hole boring cutters, glaives, etc.
D-type blade is used in cut-off tools, grooving tools, etc.
E-type blade is used in threading turning tools.
 
Brazed tungsten carbide blades will differ according to different blade groove shapes:
Open slot: It is simple for manufacture, smaller in welding area, suitable for C-type blade and sometimes D-type blade as well.
Semi-closed slot: It is relatively difficult for manufacture, but firm in blade welded. It is suitable for E-type blade.
Closed slot: It is difficult for manufacture, but firm in blade welded. It can increase welding area and is often used in threading cutters and suitable for E-type blade.
Undercut groove: It is used in cut-off tools and grooving tools of relatively smaller base area, thus increasing welding area and bond strength. It is complicated for manufacture and suitable for D-type blade.

Brazed Tungsten Carbide Turning Tool Introduction

Brazed tungsten carbide turning tool is a type of commonly used brazed turning tool with high hardness and thus can meet the needs of most of machining materials. Brazed turning tool, as its name implies, is a type of tool in which the blade and the shank are tied  by welding.
 
Brazed tungsten carbide turning tool is simple in structure, easy for manufacture and flexible in use and can be sharpened according to different requirements. It has high stiffness due to its material characteristics. However, it also has its disadvantages, which lie in its relying the cutting properties on the sharpening technology by manpower. In addition to that, its shank cannot be used repeatedly. If the blade is worn or broken, then the shank will also be out of use.
 
Brazed tungsten carbide turning tool, according to its properties and objects, can be divided into three types: the red shank type, the yellow shank type and the blue shank type.
The red shank type is made of YG tungsten carbide, which is represented by YG6 and YG8. It is mainly used in the rough machining of cast iron, non-ferrous metal and non-metallic material. This type of carbide is of high bending resistance but poor abrasion resistance, thus is only suitable for low-speed processing.
The yellow shank type is made of YW tungsten carbide, which is represented by YW1 and YW2 and is mainly used in the semi-finish and finish processing of high-viscosity material like stainless steel. This type of carbide is of high hardness, good abrasion resistance and universality but low bending resistance, thus is only suitable for high-speed feed processing.
The blue shank type is made of YT tungsten carbide, which is represented by YT15 and YT5, and is mainly used in the machining of 45# steel and ordinary steel. This type of tungsten carbide is of high hardness, good abrasion resistance but low bending resistance, thus is suitable for rough processing and semi-finish processing.

Tungsten Carbide Treading Turning Tool Introduction

Tungsten carbide threading turning tool is used in thread machining. Currently, due to the characteristics of numerical control machining, the traditional high speed steel turning tool can no longer meet its needs. Nowadays, the threading machining in cast iron material often uses YG tungsten carbide, while that in steel material often uses YT tungsten carbide, such as YT15. This type of cutting tool is of wide universality, not only suitable for rough machining but also finish machining.
 
Tungsten carbide threading turning tool can be divided into two types, which are internal turning tool and external turning tool, among which, it can again be subdivided into the solid type and the clip type. The clip type threading turning tool is increasingly common in use. The structure of clip type threading turning tool has two main parts, which are the shank and the blade. There is a shim on the shank, which is fastened by a bolt and the blade is installed in the shim. There are two types of blades in the clip type turning tool, that is uncoated tungsten carbide blade and coated tungsten carbide blade. The former one is generally used in non-ferrous metal machining, which include aluminium, alloy, copper, copper alloy etc., while the latter generally in rolled steel, cast iron, stainless steel, alloy, and so on. Coasting can greatly extend the blade’s service life.
