General Questions
1. What is a PDC cutter?
A PDC cutter (Polycrystalline Diamond Compact cutter) is an advanced cutting component made by combining a polycrystalline diamond layer with a carbide substrate through high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) technology.
It is widely used in drill bits for oil & gas drilling, mining, geothermal drilling, and other demanding applications due to its excellent wear resistance, impact toughness, and cutting efficiency.
2. What industries are PDC cutters used in?
Our PDC cutters are designed for various drilling applications, including:
- Oil and gas drilling;
- Mining exploration;
- Geothermal drilling;
- Water well drilling;
