General FAQs – High-Performance Cutting Tools HPCUT Learning Centre

PCD (Polycrystalline Diamond) cutting tools are engineered for machining composites, aluminium, and non-ferrous materials. They offer 10x longer tool life and exceptional surface finish compared to carbide tools.

PCD tools deliver superior wear resistance and precision on abrasive materials, while carbide tools are ideal for steel, titanium, and high-temperature alloys. Choosing the right one depends on your material and machining process.

Consider your material type, cutting speed, and desired finish. Our engineering team can recommend optimal geometry and coating combinations for maximum tool life and productivity.

Yes — HPCUT offers regrinding and re-tipping services that restore tool performance and reduce long-term costs without compromising accuracy.

Diamond-coated tools are perfect for graphite, CFRP, GFRP, and aluminium machining. The coating enhances tool hardness, reduces friction, and ensures consistent performance in abrasive materials.

Delamination often occurs due to improper tool geometry or feed rate. Using multi-facet drills or PCD point designs minimizes fibre pullout and ensures clean, burr-free holes.

Optimised flutes provide smooth chip evacuation and reduced heat build-up, resulting in better surface finish and longer tool life — especially in aluminium and steel applications.

Absolutely. All our tools are precision-balanced for CNC use, yet durable enough for conventional workshop setups, offering flexibility for all machining environments.

Select the right coating, geometry, and coolant strategy. HPCUT tools use advanced coatings and micro-grain carbide to deliver consistent results even under high RPM conditions.

Our cutting tools perform exceptionally well in aluminium, steel, titanium, graphite, composites, and Inconel — making them ideal for aerospace, automotive, and general engineering sectors.

Yes — HPCUT specializes in bespoke cutting tool design for complex components. We tailor tool geometry, PCD grade, and shank design to your specific application needs.

Not recommended. Composites require abrasion-resistant PCD or diamond-coated drills, while aluminium performs best with carbide tools featuring polished flutes.

Surface finish depends on tool sharpness, cutting speed, material type, and chip evacuation. HPCUT tools are engineered to deliver mirror-quality finishes across all machining setups.

We maintain fast dispatch for standard tools within 7–10 working days, and offer rapid lead times for custom tool orders, ensuring minimal production delays.

With years of manufacturing experience, HPCUT combines precision engineering, advanced coatings, and in-house R&D to deliver tools that guarantee performance, reliability, and value in every cut.
