PDC Inserts
PDC Cutter (polycrystalline diamond compact cutter) are core components that have established a strong presence in the high-end industrial cutting and drilling markets. They are manufactured by sintering a layer of polycrystalline diamond onto a cemented carbide substrate under ultra-high pressure and temperature conditions. Its basic structure leverages diamond’s extremely high hardness and cemented carbide’s outstanding impact toughness to create a cutting edge with exceptional wear resistance. In terms of structural configuration, the product covers flat, spherical, and special-shaped designs, and is divided into deep de-cobalt thermal stability grade and standard toughness grade according to the material version. This allows the inserts to adapt to a variety of complex formation environments, from soft mudstone to highly abrasive sandstone. The core technical advantage lies in the uniform distribution of micron-sized diamond powder, which ensures metallurgical-grade bonding. This design advantage improves the rate of penetration (ROP) and reduces the total cost of drilling. In terms of maintenance and installation, the product supports the standard brazing process and maintains high dimensional consistency, which simplifies the tooth arrangement process of the drill bit. Whether in deep well operations with extreme heat or high-impact mining, PDC cutter demonstrate excellent environmental adaptability.
PDC Inserts Features

Deep de-cobalt treatment for enhanced thermal stability
The residual cobalt metal on the surface of the diamond layer is removed by a chemical leaching process, which significantly raises the critical temperature of thermal stability. This technical attribution solves the pain point of diamond graphitization caused by frictional heat in high-speed drilling.

Non-planar interface design to reduce shear stress
A complex wavy or toothed interface is used to connect the diamond layer with the alloy substrate, increasing the physical bonding area. This structure solves the problem of delamination that can occur under strong torque or when facing hard interlayers.

High dimensional consistency for precise interference fit
Using the precision centerless grinding process, the diameter deviation of each product is strictly managed. This ensures the inserts fit closely in the tooth grooves, improving the overall dynamic balance of the drill bit and preventing tooth loss.

Mirror polishing technology to minimize drilling friction
After nano-scale polishing, the surface roughness is reduced to a minimal level. This feature solves the common problem of “bit balling” in viscous formations, allowing cuttings to slide smoothly along the cutting surface and increasing ROP.

Multi-level particle size formula to balance hardness and toughness
By adjusting the diamond powder ratio, impact resistance is improved while maintaining high hardness. This solves the micro-chipping phenomenon that occurs when passing through heterogeneous rock formations, extending the tool life.

Optimized double chamfer structure to distribute impact load
The cutting edge adopts a precisely designed double chamfer process, which effectively disperses peak impact forces. This design solves the problem of cutting-edge fragmentation during instantaneous load increases when entering new formations.
