Definitions

  • This invention relates to cubic boron nitride abrasive bodies.
  • Cubic boron nitride abrasive compacts are known in the art (e.g. EP-A1-0 101 259) and consist of a polycrystalline mass of cubic boron nitride particles present in an amount of at least 70 percent by volume bonded into a hard conglomerate. Such compacts may contain a second phase. When provided, the second phase is typically a ceramic phase. The second phase acts to some extent as a binder phase for the cubic boron nitride particles.
  • One of the most successful cubic boron nitride abrasive compacts presently on the market is one wherein the second phase consists essentially of aluminium nitride and/or aluminium diboride.
  • This compact is sold in the form of large discs which are clamped into a suitable tool holder and used in this manner for abrading various work pieces. A curved edge of the compact is used as the abrading edge.
  • This compact is designed for applications where a high removal rate of workpiece is desired.
  • Abrasive compacts comprising diamond or cBN abrasive particles or a mixture thereof, present in an amount of at least 50 volume percent, bonded into a hard conglomerate by means of a metal are known from US-A-4 063 909. According to this document the compacts are bonded to a support by a layer of high temperature braze with a thickness of less than 0.5 mm.
  • Suitable high temperature braze metals include Ti, Ni, Co, Fe, Cr, Mn, V, Mo, Ta or Pt or an alloy containing one or more thereof, Ti or Ti-alloys are particularly preferred.
  • a tool insert comprising an abrasive compact comprising a polycrystalline mass of cubic boron nitride particles present in an amount of at least 70 percent by volume and containing substantial direct particle-to-particle bonding and a second phase dispersed through the cubic boron nitride particle mass, the abrasive compact presenting major surfaces on each of opposite sides thereof, the one major surface providing a cutting point for the insert and the other major surface having bonded thereto, and being in direct contact with, a layer of molybdenum of thickness less than 0,5mm, the largest linear dimension of the compact being no more than 10mm.
  • the tool insert of the invention is thus a small cubic boron nitride compact which has a molybdenum layer bonded to one major flat surface thereof. Because of its size, it is not practical to hold the insert mechanically in a suitable tool holder. However, the presence of the molybdenum layer renders the compact brazeable to a tool holder. It is preferable that the compact is first brazed to a cemented carbide support which is then brazed to the tool holder or mechanically held in a tool holder. Cemented carbide has a similar coefficient of thermal expansion to the compact and problems arising due to differences in thermal expansion of the compact and support are minimised.
  • the abrasive compact of the insert preferably has a rectangular, triangular, pentagonal or hexagonal shape.
  • the compact presents several points and it is these points which provide cutting points for the insert.
  • the molybdenum layer is the thin layer, preferably having a thickness in the range 50 to 150 ⁇ m (microns).
  • the layer of molybdenum may have an outer nickel or like metal layer applied to it, that is to say, the layer of molybdenum is in direct contact with the abrasive compact and is between the abrasive compact and the nickel or like metal layer.
  • the cubic boron nitride compact may be any known in the art but is preferably one wherein the second phase contains aluminium nitride and/or aluminium diboride. Second phases of this nature are produced when aluminium is present during manufacture of the compact.
  • One particularly preferred cubic boron nitride of this nature has a second phase which consists essentially of aluminium nitride and/or aluminium diboride.
  • the second phase may also contain other components such as silicon which is either in elemental or combined form.
  • the tool inserts of the invention may be used for a wide variety of applications. They have particular application for light to medium turning, boring, grooving, threading and milling of various steels, irons and alloys such as: Ni-HARD white irons having a hardness of 55 to 58 HRC High chromium irons having a hardness of 55 to 62 HRC Cold work tool steels having a hardness of 60 HRC High speed steels having a hardness of 62 HRC Grey cast irons (pearlitic) having a hardness of 220 HB Sintered irons having a hardness of 100 HB Cobalt-based hard facing alloys Nickel-based hard facing alloys Meehanite white irons having a hardness of 55 HRC
  • cubic boron nitride abrasive compact will be brazed to a cemented carbide support, preferably a cemented tungsten carbide support, by means of the readily brazeable molybdenum layer and using a braze such as a silver brazing alloy having a melting point between 660°C and 840°C.
  • a braze such as a silver brazing alloy having a melting point between 660°C and 840°C.
  • the tool insert is particularly useful for light to medium cut applications. This means that the infeed of the tool insert during turning, boring, grooving or milling will not exceed 0,3mm per revolution or pass of the insert across the workpiece.
  • a mass of cubic boron nitride particles was placed in contact with an aluminium foil which itself was placed in contact with a foil of molybdenum.
  • This unbonded assembly was placed in the reaction zone of a conventional high temperature/high pressure apparatus and subjected to a temperature of about 1500°C and a pressure of about 5.5Gpa (55 kilobars) for a period of 15 minutes.
  • Recovered from the reaction zone using conventional techniques was an abrasive compact containing about 90 percent by volume of cubic boron nitride particles in which there was substantial direct particle-to-particle bonding and a second phase consisting essentially of aluminium nitride and/or aluminium diboride.
  • the compact was produced in the form of a disc and had bonded to a major flat surface thereof a layer of molybdenum of thickness about 100 ⁇ m (microns).
  • This compact was cut into a plurality of equilateral triangles, some having a side dimension of 5mm and others having a side dimension of 7mm.
  • Each triangle constituted a tool insert of the invention.
