In 1998 UKAM
Industrial Superhard Tools, Division
of LEL Diamond Tools International, Inc. introduced
a new
breakthrough: SMART
CUT™
technology in
manufacturing ULTRA
THIN & HIGH PRECISION
diamond blades. ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY that REDEFINES
THE STANDARD IN CUTTING & DRILLING. This technology
allows us
to properly
position and
orient the
diamond inside
the metal
matrix. Making sure
every diamond
is in
the right
place and
at the
right time,
working where you
need it
most. (Please, see
diagram left. Click on diagram for more information) |
maximum
cutting performance – each diamond
works like
a small
work horse. Diamonds
come in
contact with
the material
in the
right place
and at
the right
time, working
where you
need them
most. You get
the maximum
use out
of diamond
and bond. Some unique
benefits & advantages of SMART
CUT™
technology:
no
glazing – requires minimal dressing, the bond renews itself
faster
cutting action - Diamond blades manufactured utilizing this
technology are much more aggressive than your conventional blades. They cut
faster, still leaving behind a smooth finish.
|
more
universal & longer lasting - These diamond blades are
designed to work on virtually any material you can find. You can cut very hard
materials, than switch to cutting very soft materials and the blade will
maintain the same consistent performance. 7mm diamond depth for blades
4" to 10" and 10mm diamond depth for blades 12" to
16" allows the blade to
last 80% to 40% longer on the
hardest materials (such as sapphire, ruby, agate, opal, and etc.) |
superior
coolant system - these blades are designed to cut with or without oil.
We feel it is more preferable to the user to use water as a coolant. Oil does
not a proper coolant for this procedure, as most other manufacturers would
suggest. Water is a true organic coolant, witch does not leave the material
being cut oily or greasy.
REAL TIME &
MATERIAL SAVERS - minizes and almost eliminates work required after cutting,
such as grinding & polishing. The blade performs several operations,
grinding & polishing material as it cuts. SMART
CUT™ Diamond Lapidary Blades are the THINNEST Sintered (metal
bond) Diamond Blades commercially available for lapidary (precious & semi
precious stone) application today! The Diamond Thickness (TH) specified is
actual thickness of diamond section, not core thickness. The time & material you will save is
worth the price of these blades alone.
UKAM
Industrial Superhard Tools proprietary blade chemistry, precision manufacturing
methods, modern quality control methods, allow us to control and regulate the
dozens of variables that affect blade life, quality of cut, surface finish.
Reducing and often eliminating additional steps often required after cutting.
WHY
SINTERED (METAL BOND) DIAMOND LAPIDARY BLADES WITH SMART
CUT™ technology
OFFER
THE BEST VALUE & PERFORMANCE FOR YOUR
MONEY?
 |
Sintered (Metal
bonded) diamond blades are "impregnated" with diamonds. Diamonds
sintered and multiple (hundreds) layers of diamonds impregnated
inside the metal matrix. Electroplated
and other types of diamond blades for lapidary application have only one
layer of diamond that stays on the surface. Diamonds in a sintered (metal
bond) diamond blade are furnaces sintered in a matrix made of iron,
cobalt, nickel, bronze,
copper,
tungsten, alloys of these powders
or
other
metals in various combinations. The
compacted materials are then hot pressed or sintered to full density.
Heating rate, applied pressure, sintering temperature and holding time,
are all controlled according to the matrix composition. This means
that selected diamonds are mixed and sintered with specific metal alloys
to achieve the best cutting performance possible on any materials such as
sapphire, agate, emerald, ruby, opal, petrified wood, glass, and etc. The
metal bond surrounding the diamonds must wear away to continuously keep
re-exposing the diamonds for the diamond tool to continue cutting. |
Sintered
(metal bonded) diamond tools are recommended for cutting hard materials from
45 to 75 on Rockwell Scale (5 to 9.5 on mohs scale of hardness).
It is more wear resistant and holds diamond well in place, usually producing the
highest yield/cutting & best price per cut ratio. Metal
Bond (sintered) diamond blades longer than other
diamond bond blades such as electroplated (nickel bond), notched, or colled
rolled blades. They wear
evenly, and are known for their long life & consistency. Sintered
(metal bonded) diamond blades are the latest technology available in Diamond
Blades. And represent the BEST
VALUE & PERFORMANCE PER CUT.

UKAM
Industrial Superhard Tools is LEADER in manufacturing ULTRA THIN & HIGH
PRECISION sintered (metal bond) diamond blades. Our products are used across the
world in wide variety of industries & applications. UKAM Industrial
is one of the companies behind the original THIN KERF Sintered (metal bond)
diamond blades for lapidary application. Producing blades sold under
"private label" for a number of well known equipment manufacturers. |
Comparing
SINTERED (METAL BOND) DIAMOND LAPIDARY BLADES to Other Bond Types
(electroplated, notched, hot or colled rolled blades)
Sintered (Metal Bonded) Blades
vs.
Other Diamond
Bond Type Blades
- Hundreds layers of
diamond
- Single layer of diamond
- Stands up well
under aggressive conditions
- Cannot be dressed
(in most cases)
- Super smooth
finish
- Least Expensive
- Longest lasting
blade
- Shortest Blade Life
- Very
Universal
- Cannot be used
for a number of (ultra hard) materials
(work on ultra hard
to soft materials)
- Most cost effective
Sintered
(metal bonded) blades are the best investment you can make!
Although they may cost more than electroplated (nickel bond), hot or colled
rolled or some notched lapidary blades, sintered (metal bond) blades will
more than pay for themselves in terms of:
Longer Life
Other Bond type
blades may cost less, and at first glance may seem like the most cost
effective alternative. However, they will cost you more in the long
run. Depending on material and application, sintered (metal
bonded) blades may last as much as 50
to 100 other diamond lapidary blade types put together.
You can't get more life out of any other blade !!! Instead of
constantly putting blades on and off the saw, you will save money by using
one blade. This means cost per cut, sintered (metal bond) blades are the best
choice.
More Consistent
performance & Faster Cutting Speed
Other Blade Types
have only one layer of diamond coated on metal core. Diamonds
sit only on the surface. When this diamond portion is peeled off, the blade
will slow down, cut on the side (not cut straight) or stop working (cutting)
altogether. While other blade types may provide acceptable level of
performance softer lapidary materials such as topaz, turquoise, amethyst,
and etc. They will immediately burn out on harder materials such as agates,
petrified wood, sapphire and etc. Metal bonded blades are sintered and
impregnated inside the metal matrix. Multiple (hundreds) layers of diamonds
are impregnated inside the metal matrix. Unlike Blade
Types, metal bond
blades wear evenly, and are known for their consistency. You will get
consistent cutting speed, and overall consistent performance from sintered
(metal bonded) blades.
