20090269151 | UNCOATED CUTTING TOOL USING BRAZED-IN SUPERHARD BLANK - An uncoated cutting tool that comprises a body containing a pocket. A polycrystalline cubic boron nitride blank has a cutting tip. The blank is brazed into the pocket using a braze alloy whereby there is a braze joint between the body and the polycrystalline cubic boron nitride blank. The braze alloy has a liquidus temperature of at least about 900 degrees Centigrade wherein the braze alloy is selected from the group comprising a nickel-gold braze alloy containing nickel and gold, a copper-gold braze alloy containing copper and gold, a silver-titanium braze alloy containing silver and titanium, and a silver-palladium braze alloy containing silver and palladium. | 10-29-2009 |
20100255199 | ALUMINA COATING, COATED PRODUCT AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - A method of coating a substrate that includes the steps of: applying by chemical vapor deposition at a temperature ranging between about 750 degrees Centigrade and about 920 degrees Centigrade an alpha-alumina coating layer wherein the alpha-alumina coating layer exhibits a platelet grain morphology at the surface thereof. | 10-07-2010 |
20130052455 | CUTTING INSERT WITH A TITANIUM OXYCARBONITRIDE COATING AND METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME - A method for making a coated cutting insert, as well as the coated cutting insert, includes a step of providing a substrate which has a surface, and depositing a CVD coating layer of titanium oxycarbonitride. The gaseous mixture from which the coating layer of titanium oxycarbonitride is deposited has a composition of nitrogen, methane hydrogen chloride, titanium tetrachloride, acetonitrile, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen. The coating layer of titanium oxycarbonitride comprises titanium oxycarbonitride whiskers having as measured in a two-dimensional plane view an average length greater than about 1.0 μm, an average width greater than about 0.2 μm, and an average aspect ratio greater than about 2.0. | 02-28-2013 |
20130260035 | METHOD OF MAKING A COATED CERAMIC CUTTING INSERT - A coated ceramic cutting insert for removing material from a workpiece, as well as a method for making the same, that includes a ceramic substrate with a rake surface and at least one flank surface wherein a cutting edge is at the juncture therebetween. A wear-resistant coating scheme that includes an alumina-containing base coating layer region, which has at least one exposed alumina coating layer, deposited by chemical vapor deposition on the substantially all of the surfaces of the ceramic substrate that experience wear during removal of material from the workpiece. The exposed alumina coating layer exhibits a blasted stress condition ranging between about 50 MPa (tensile stress) and about −2 GPa (compressive) as measured by XRD using the Psi tilt method and the (024) reflection of alumina. The exposed alumina coating layer is the result of wet blasting a titanium-containing outer coating layer region from the surface of the alumina-containing base coating layer region. | 10-03-2013 |
