Engineering foundation: Superabrasive fusion-bonding technology
Superabrasive Brazing Technology
Based on over 10 years of deep research on diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN) interface wettability, we have mastered the core "superabrasive fusion-bonding" technology. This is the engineering foundation of the sp³–sp² platform technology, achieving atomic-level chemical bonding between superabrasives and metal substrates through active fusion bonding, providing precision machining solutions for extreme working conditions worldwide.
Core capabilities
From interface modification to systems engineering, building the underlying technical foundation of the sp³–sp² platform
Interface modification & bonding
Focused on solving the bonding challenge between superabrasives (Diamond/CBN) and heterogeneous substrates, using active fusion bonding (Active Fusion-Bonding) to form high-strength interface compounds for atomic-level chemical bonding.
Extreme condition adaptation
Providing customized cutting/grinding solutions for "difficult-to-machine materials" such as aerospace superalloys, carbon fiber composites (CFRP), and ceramic matrix composites (CMC), ensuring process stability and efficient machining.
Technology downward compatibility
Translating industrial-grade precision control into underlying process specifications supporting sp³–sp² consumer products (e.g., diamond coating cookware) and industrial thermal management (diamond-copper), enabling continuous technology evolution.
Product design principles: Three-element architecture of superabrasive fusion bonding
Performance of active fusion-bonded superabrasive tools is determined by three core elements: Substrate, Superabrasive, and Active fusion alloy
Substrate
As the abrasive carrier, provides structural support and rigidity for the tool through geometric conformal adaptation to specific machining conditions.
Superabrasive
As micro-cutting tools, undertake material removal (Diamond/CBN), determining tool cutting capability and service life.
Active fusion alloy
As the bonding link, determines overall tool service performance through chemical metallurgical reactions; the key control point for performance.

System design logic
Tool design is not simple element stacking, but comprehensive optimization based on machining object (e.g., superalloys, composites) and working conditions (dry/wet cutting). We perform full-system matching across four dimensions: substrate structure, abrasive selection, placement process, and active fusion atmosphere.
Engineering support under extreme conditions
In aerospace, semiconductor manufacturing, defense, and other fields, difficult-to-machine materials impose stringent requirements on tool reliability
Ceramic matrix composite (CMC)
Core material for aero-engine hot-section components; extremely difficult to machine, demanding high wear resistance and thermal stability from tools.
Carbon fiber composite (CFRP)
Mainstream material for aerospace structures and new energy vehicle bodies; prone to delamination and burrs during machining, requiring precise cutting control.

Superabrasive active fusion-bonding principle
Active Fusion-Bonding Technology
Using customized fusion alloys in ultra-clean vacuum or controlled protective atmosphere, active components drive atomic-level chemical bonding with surface elements of superhard materials (diamond, CBN, PCD). This is not merely physical connection but atomic-level deep coupling, aimed at building high-strength, low-thermal-resistance integrated engineering structures.
Precisely controlled by alloy system
Effectively suppresses component volatilization, ensures fusion layer density
Core advantages: four-dimension comparison
High-strength chemical bonding
Fusion alloy optimized for superhard materials; achieves extremely high bonding strength while avoiding excessive erosion, fully preserving physicochemical properties of superabrasives.
Physical property assurance
Vacuum environment not only prevents oxidation but, through negative pressure precision control, ensures fusion alloy composition stability, achieving excellent tool surface cleanliness and consistency.
High grain protrusion
Compared to electroplating and traditional brazing, active fusion-bonding gives stronger grain exposure, more cutting edges, significantly improving material removal rate.
