MCD
(Monocrysatlline Diamond)
Developed using HPHT technology (high pressure, high temperature), the manufacture of synthetic monocrystalline diamond is achieved by combining a mixture of carbon and transitional metals at very high pressures and temperatures.
Properties
Excellent thermal conductivity and good wear resistance & repeatability of chemical, physical and thermal characteristics.
Shapes available
Topped octahedron shapes, rhombic-dodecahedron shape or simply plate like crystals.
Color
Yellow
Qualities
The rough synthetic stones are carefully sorted into various qualities and grades. Each grade reflects either our grade 1 flawless crystal or grade 2 & 3 with various levels of internal inclusions.

Types of Mono Crystal Diamond Cutting Tools
Here are some typical mono crystal cutting tools
​
Mono crystal diamond cutting tools are suitable for processing many materials:
including gold, silver, copper, copper alloys, aluminum, aluminum alloys, beryllium alloys, oxygen-free copper (OFC), electroless nickel, graphite, glass, plastic, ceramics, unsintered cemented carbide, Various fiber and particle reinforced composite materials, rubber and various wear-resistant wood (especially solid wood and plywood, MDF and other composite materials)
​
​
Advantages Of MCD Cutting Tools
• High hardness and wear resistance
• High efficiency and low cost
• High surface finish can be obtained on your workpiece
​
Mono-crystal diamond tools are often used for machining high - precision parts with mirror finish. The mono-crystal diamond tools can achieve excellent cutting edge by grinding .The surface finish can reach 0.025 micron or higher.
