Graphite & Carbon Materials
Precision diamond tooling solutions for cutting, sectioning, grinding, drilling and finishing graphite, carbon-carbon composites and advanced carbon materials.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
HANS provides diamond and superabrasive tooling solutions for processing graphite and advanced carbon materials used in semiconductor, EDM, energy, aerospace and industrial applications. Our solutions support precision cutting, sectioning, grinding, drilling, shaping and surface finishing of graphite blocks, rods, electrodes, carbon components, carbon-carbon composites and other abrasive carbon-based materials.
KEY CHALLENGES
Graphite and carbon materials are highly abrasive and can cause rapid wear of conventional cutting tools. Precision processing also requires control of edge damage, dimensional accuracy, kerf width, surface quality and material loss. Carbon-carbon composites introduce additional challenges due to their layered and anisotropic structures.
RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS
Recommended solutions include continuous and segmented diamond wire loops for precision sectioning, thin diamond saw blades for controlled cutting, diamond grinding wheels for shaping and surface preparation, diamond drills and burs for detailed machining, flexible diamond belts and discs for contour finishing, and diamond lapping products for fine surface preparation.
KEY BENEFITS
Efficient processing of highly abrasive carbon materials, narrow and controlled cutting, reduced material loss, accurate component geometry, consistent surface quality and reliable abrasive performance. Custom diamond wire dimensions, grit sizes, wheel specifications and tooling configurations are available for specialized graphite and carbon applications.
