Tungsten Steel CNC Machining Process
Professional Tungsten Steel CNC Machining Services
AOOM Technology delivers precision tungsten steel CNC machining that unlocks the full potential of this ultra-hard material. Tungsten steel (cemented carbide), with hardness ratings of 85–92 HRA, offers exceptional wear resistance, thermal stability, and edge retention that make it indispensable for cutting tools, dies, wear components, and aerospace parts. Machining tungsten steel demands specialized expertise—our engineers employ diamond-coated tooling, optimized cutting parameters, and advanced cooling strategies to overcome material brittleness and extreme hardness, producing components with tolerances down to ±0.005 mm.
Key Technical Specifications
- Dimensional tolerances of ±0.005 mm on finished components
- Hardness range: 85–92 HRA, grades K10–K40 and beyond
- Diamond-coated (PCD/CVD) tooling for extended tool life and surface quality
- EDM (wire and sinker) capability for precision shaping without tool-contact stress
- Cryogenic machining option to reduce thermal stress and micro-cracking
Applications
Tungsten steel CNC machined parts are essential for cutting tool inserts (milling, turning, drilling), stamping and forming dies, aerospace (nozzle liners, bearing races, seal rings), medical (surgical instrument tips, orthopedic drill bits), oil and gas (drill bit cutters, valve seats, flow control orifices), and industrial machinery (extrusion dies, pelletizer blades, wear plates).
Quality Assurance
ISO 9001:2015-certified quality system governs all tungsten steel machining. Inspection includes CMM dimensional verification, surface roughness profilometry, Rockwell hardness testing per ASTM E18, material composition analysis via XRF, and functional testing under simulated operating conditions. Full material certification and first-article inspection reports accompany every shipment.
