A brief review of brazing diamond in cutting tools

Diamond has high hardness and good wear resistance. It is widely used in cutting tools and workpieces. Brazing is an effective method to realize high quality cemented carbide joints in various materials connection technologies. This paper analyzes the research status of diamond brazing in detail. The materials used as brazing filler in diamond brazing are reviewed. Copper base filler and nickel base filler are the most commonly used brazing filler in diamond brazing. The advantages and disadvantages of diamond grinding tools under different production methods are analyzed. In addition, a series of new brazing alloys such as amorphous Ni based brazing filler metals are analyzed. Finally, the development trend of diamond brazing is pointed out.
