Diamond tools for delamination-free processing
The machining of GRP and CFRP requires/calls for special know-how. Meanwhile diamond tools – either wirh diamond or PCD – belong to the standard repertoire for the processing of any type of composite materials.
LACH DIAMANT tools are highly innovative, work with highest precision and increase economic efficiency by a multiple.
Wide variety of uses on all current machines in wind turbine/rotorblade processing: CNC-, robot- and manual milling machines.
More than 20 years of
experience and know-how in wind power industry

Highlight
For more than 20 years the LACH DIAMANT engineers have been working with the challenging material and with their experience and intuition – have supported the wind power industry in becoming „greener“:
The drill with internal exhaustion for a dustfree and precise drilling operations.
Innovation: PCD drills with internal exhaustion
- patented by LACH DIAMANT
- dust- and chipfree
- long tool life
- eco-friendly
Diamond tools for rotorblade production
Tools with diamond or PCD ensure a precise processing of this highly abrasive material and with maximum infeed, tool lives and reduced production cycle times.
The economic efficiency of diamond tools in this processing step is out of reach for carbide tools.
Process: cutting of the rotor blade`s root end
Solution: diamond and PCD cutting saws
PCD-tipped cutting saws
long tool life
high infeed rates increase the machine utilisation
high efficiency
Tools can be resharpened and re-tipped several times
Diameters from Ø300 to 550 mm
- usable on all current machines
Cutting saws with diamond coating
-
Diamond coating by means of electroplating process
-
cost-effective solution
-
easy to use
-
recoatable multiple times
-
Diameters from Ø300 to 550 mm
- usable on all current machines – also for manual milling machines
Process: face milling of the rotorblade`s root end
Solution: PCD face milling cutter
The LACH DIAMANT high-performance face milling cutters allow maximum face milling accuracy with a low degree of delamination. High feed rates reduce machining times by a multiple. Internal coolant channels for longer tool lives of the high-performance cutting tools. The PCD cutting edges can be resharpend and/or re-tipped with PCD several times.
- Diameters from Ø80 to 220 mm
- for SK or HSK adapters
Process: Axial drilling for threaded pins + radial drilling for threaded bushes
Solution: PCD and diamond drills
Also LACH DIAMANT solid drills with PCD cutting edges allow delamination-free bore entrances and outlets.
The extra-hard cutting material allows maximum feed rates reducing production times by a multiple. Internal coolant channels for longer tool lives. The PCD cutting edges can be resharpend and/or re-tipped with PCD several times.
