摘要:
A hardfacing composition (32) that includes a plurality of hard particles (54) wherein the hard particles (54) such as tungsten carbide include a mode particle size distribution, one particle size distribution smaller than the mode particle size distribution, and an other particle size distribution larger than the mode particle size distribution. There is an absence of any substantial fluctuations in the particle size distribution between the mode particle size distribution and the one particle size distribution. There is an absence of any substantial fluctuations in the particle size distribution between the mode particle size distribution and the other particle size distribution.

A cone blank (120) for a rotary cone rock bit is forged, rough machined, carburized and heat-treated, followed by the formation of insert holes (146) therein. Inserts (142) are then pressed into the insert holes. The finished cone is subsequently sprayed with hardfacing cladding material (154) in powdered form. The powder is thereafter densified and fused with a laser source to give a hard, erosion-resistant clad layer (155) on the outer surface, including in the immediate vicinity of the inserts (142).

In one embodiment, a carbide-containing article includes a carbide body (54) with an attached superabrasive layer (52). A braze metal coating (56) is attached to a surface the carbide substrate (54). The coating (56) primarily is made of particles of a metal having a melting point of less than 1200 0C, the particles having a size of less than 0.1 mm. In another embodiment, a process for applying a braze metal coating (56) to a carbide body (54) of a superabrasive (52) or other article includes depositing finely divided particles of a low melting point metal onto the carbide body by spraying the particles and gas onto the body at a velocity that is between 500 km/sec and 2 km/sec, with volumetric delivery of the particles being less than 50 grams per minute.

A cutting tip for a drilling tool includes a cemented carbide cutting base 11, a diamond element 12 supported by the cutting base 11, and a bonding layer formed between the cutting base 11 and the diamond element 12 in order to bond them. The bonding layer 13 includes diffusion layers S1 and S2 in which one or two or more metals selected from a group consisting of Fe, Ni, Co, Ti, Zr, W, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, and Hf diffuses into at least one of the cemented carbide or the diamond.

In a first aspect, the invention relates to a method for achievement of a welded joint between two parts, e.g. a coupling part (1) and a drill shank (2), included in a cutting tool. Characteristic of the invention is that a shim (14) is applied in a peripherically opening gap between the parts, which shim has a predetermined shape corresponding to the shape of the gap, and then the material is melted and welded together in the boundary zone between the contact surfaces of the shim and the analogous contact surfaces of the two parts by means of a laser beam (22) directed to the periphery of the shim. In a second aspect, the invention also relates to a cutting tool as such.

A method for manufacturing a matrix drill bit includes: placing a metallic blank within a casting assembly including a mold having an inner surface formed into a negative shape of facial features of the drill bit; loading powder into an annulus formed between the blank and the mold, the powder including at least one of: ceramic powder and cermet powder; placing a binder alloy into the casting assembly over the blank and the mold; protecting the binder alloy from oxidation; inserting the casting assembly, blank, powder, and binder alloy into a furnace; operating the furnace to heat the protected binder alloy to an infiltration temperature between solidus and liquidus temperatures thereof, thereby infiltrating the powder with the binder alloy and forming a bit body; removing the bit body from the furnace; and after removal, attaching cutters to blades of the bit body.
