Applications of Tungsten Carbide Disc Cutter

Tungsten carbide disc cutter is variously used in different industrial applications. Tungsten carbide cutter offers high tolerance and optimal chip breaker design with abrasion resistant edge. Tungsten carbide disc cutter is ideal for a variety of tasks. It easily cut through concrete, stone, brick, paving, reinforced concrete and even steel rebar and mesh reinforcement.

Tungsten carbide disc cutteris special cutting instrument which utilizes abrasive powders and high speed, vibratory motion to cut discs, holes, cylinders, squares and other shapes from hard, brittle materials. Tungsten carbide disc cutter is widely used to cut paper, tile, tobacco, PCB board, aluminum, stainless steel, copper and other metals.

Tungsten carbide disc cutter is used in the cutter head of a tunnel boring machine. The cutter head does not use disc cutters only, but instead a combination of tungsten carbide cutting bits, tungsten carbide disc cutters, and/or hard rock disc cutters. A tunnel boring machine (TBM) is a machine used to excavate tunnels with a circular cross section through a variety of soil and rock strata. They can bore through anything from hard rock to sand.
