PCD Profile Diamond Cutter FDI for Edge Rounding, Nesting and Cutting

Index: FDI.18.018.20.SR1

The industrial profile diamond cutter of the FDI series is designed for precise edge rounding, nesting, and cutting on CNC centres and overhead spindle milling machines. The advanced design of the tool consists of two solid blades made from polycrystalline diamond H2.5 shaped radially. The Z2+2 configuration variant is additionally equipped with a polycrystalline diamond drill face insert, allowing for smooth and axial penetration of the tool into the material. The body made of high-hardness steel (> 28 HRC) offers a high level of rigidity and advanced vibration damping capabilities during profile work. The ground shank in tolerance class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the spindle bearing system and guaranteeing an excellent standard of profile finish.

Design Advantages and Technical Properties:

• Precise radial edge profiling: The dedicated profiling radius allows for clean, repeatable, and aesthetic rounding of panel edges without the need for additional grinding.
• DIA drill face insert and cutting blade option (Z2+2): The cleaning or drilling insert at the tool face enables stable insertion of the cutter along the Z-axis during cutting and nesting operations.
• Laser edge treatment (ablation): The profiles of the DIA blades are finished directly with a laser beam, achieving edge radii of around 15 µm and ensuring a cutting face free of micro-chipping.
• Polished chip grooves and cutting zone: The smoothed rear part of the PCD diamond insert combined with capacious chip channels prevents material from sticking and facilitates quick removal of dust from the cutting zone.
• Low roughness of the shank: The shank surface with a roughness index of Ra ≤ 0.3 µm secures the cutter against rotating in the holder and eliminates the risk of wear on the spindle cone.
• Dynamic balancing to G2.5 standard: Certified static-dynamic balancing in the strict G2.5 class (according to ISO/EN) reduces noise and lowers vibrations generated at high speeds.
• Regrinding capability: depending on the height of the applied diamond blade: H = 2.0 mm allows for 2 times sharpening, H = 2.5 mm permits sharpening up to 2–3 times, H = 3.0 mm / H = 3.5 mm allows for sharpening up to 3–4 times, while H = 4.0 mm / H = 4.5 mm enables sharpening up to 4–6 times.

Purpose and Range of Application:

The tool is intended for precise edge rounding, nesting, and cutting operations.

It works excellently with materials such as raw and laminated MDF board, raw and laminated particle board, as well as raw and laminated plywood.
