Hardness
SUMIDIA Binderless is polycrystalline diamond that directly
binds nano-order diamond particles with high strength without
using any binders. SUMIDIA Binderless is harder than single-
crystal diamond and has no cleavability. Therefore, it enables
machining of hard, brittle material such as carbides and makes
possible new machining methods.
SUMIDIA Binderless is a pure diamond, but, unlike single-crystal diamonds, has
no anisotropy. Therefore, it displays excellent wear resistance with less uneven
wear.
Thanks to its polycrystalline structure, SUMIDIA Binderless has no cleavability
peculiar to single-crystal diamonds and displays excellent fracture resistance.

Ball-nose Endmills
The NPDB type enables direct mirror finishing of
carbide, which is impossible for existing single-crystal
or polycrystalline diamonds, by employing nano-
polycrystalline diamond, which is harder than single-
crystal diamond, for the cutting edge.
