    Abstract: A probe for use with measuring equipment, such as a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) or a profilometer includes a shaft and a probe tip coupled with the shaft. At least a portion of the probe tip comprises a superabrasive material such as polycrystalline diamond. The probe tip may exhibit a variety of different geometries including, for example, substantially spherical, substantially cylindrical with a high aspect (length to diameter) ratio, or substantially disc-shaped. In other embodiments, the tip may include a converging portion leading to a fine-radiussed end point. The tip may be manufactured by forming a body using a high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) process and the shaping the body using a process such as electrical discharge machining (EDM), grinding or laser cutting.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, a roller bearing apparatus may include a rotor having first superhard raceway elements distributed circumferentially about an axis. Each first superhard raceway element includes a raceway surface positioned/configured to form a first portion of a raceway. The apparatus includes a stator including second superhard raceway elements generally opposed to the first superhard raceway elements. Each second superhard raceway element includes a raceway surface positioned/configured to form a second portion of the raceway. The apparatus includes rolling elements interposed between the rotor and stator and positioned and configured to roll on the raceway. One or more of the rolling elements may be configured to elastically deform on the raceway during use. At least a portion of the raceway exhibits a first modulus of elasticity greater than a second modulus of elasticity of at least a portion of the one or more of the rolling elements.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to polycrystalline diamond compacts (“PDCs”) comprising a preformed polycrystalline diamond (“PCD”) table including a thermally-stable region having a copper-containing material disposed interstitially between bonded diamond grains thereof, and methods of fabricating such PDCs. In an embodiment, a PDC includes a substrate, and a preformed PCD table having an interfacial surface bonded to the substrate and a generally opposing upper surface. The PCD table includes a plurality of diamond grains exhibiting diamond-to-diamond bonding therebetween and defining a plurality of interstitial regions. The preformed PCD table further includes a first region extending inwardly from the upper surface that includes a copper-containing material disposed therein and a second region extending inwardly from the interfacial surface that includes a nickel-containing material disposed therein.
