Tungsten Carbide/Nickel Powder (WC/Ni Powder) Applications
- Cutting Tools: WC/Ni Powder is widely used in the production of cutting tools such as drills, end mills, and inserts. Its high hardness and wear resistance make it suitable for machining tough materials like steel, cast iron, and composites.
- Wear Parts: The powder is utilized in the manufacturing of wear-resistant components, including nozzles, seals, and bearings. The combination of tungsten carbide and nickel provides excellent resistance to abrasion, erosion, and surface fatigue.
- Electrical Contacts: WC/Ni Powder is employed in the fabrication of electrical contacts due to its good electrical conductivity and resistance to high temperatures. It finds application in industries such as electronics, automotive, and power distribution.
- Surface Coatings: The powder can be used for thermal spray coatings, where it imparts wear and corrosion resistance to the coated surfaces. This makes it suitable for applications in aerospace, oil and gas, and chemical processing industries.
- Additive Manufacturing: WC/Ni Powder can be utilized in powder bed fusion (PBF) additive manufacturing processes to produce complex, high-performance parts with superior wear resistance and dimensional stability.
