3D Printed PCD Cutting Tools Mini Documentary

See why Guhring UK 3D Printed these PCD Cutting Tools in this 7 minute mini documentary.

You’ll see how they were made, what drove the designs, and how they are being used (including clips of them cutting through solid metal with their diamond tips!)

If you’re a machinist you might already know who manufactured these PCD cutting tools. You may also have figured out that the hollow structure is a result of the 3D printing process – but this also comes with additional hidden benefits that we talk about in the documentary.

To confirm your guesses it was Guhring UK, a precision cutting tool manufacturer based in Birmingham. You’ll learn about them in the video, but if you prefer reading then the PDFs on Guhring and their successes with 3D printing are available on their dedicated page.
