Quartz Fiber & Silica Fiber Composites
Quartz Fiber & Silica Fiber Composites is a advanced composite material used in lightweight structural, thermal or high-performance components. It is relevant to aerospace, transportation and high-performance structural components. For HANS, the machining focus is cutting, trimming, drilling and edge finishing, with tooling selected around the material’s hardness, brittleness, geometry and required surface condition.
Machining Challenges
Heterogeneous reinforcement and matrix phases create anisotropic cutting behavior, edge breakout, delamination and rapid abrasive tool wear.
Recommended Diamond Tool Solutions
Use sharp diamond cutting, routing, drilling or grinding tools with rigid support, controlled feed and suitable dust extraction/cooling. Tailor the process to the reinforcement and matrix rather than using a generic polishing sequence.
