Turning of tungsten

General Provisions

Tungsten is difficult to turn because of its high hardness and low plasticity of the metal. In addition, tungsten is sensitive to cracking, so it requires a high qualification of the operator, which processes these alloys on lathes. It is important to remember that when working with tungsten it is necessary to grind it at temperatures much higher than the temperature of the phase transitions. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in cracking or flaking of the surface layers. It is necessary to ensure that the metal remains at this temperature throughout the entire turning process. Using a cold tool that quickly cools the metal can be as harmful as preheating the material. The best method of processing is EDM (spark eroding or arc discharge).

Supplier — AvekGlob company — offers at an affordable price from the manufacturer in a wide range of raw billets that are obtained from tungsten and its alloys. The supplier guarantees the timely delivery of products to any address specified by the consumer.

Turning modes

Are tabulated

In the manufacture of turning operations, it is recommended to use low and medium viscosity lubricating and cooling liquids, for example, based on molybdenum disulphide. The flow rate of such liquids is set at the highest possible level.

Supplier — AvekGlob Company — offers to purchase various rolled profiles, which are made of tungsten and tungsten alloys. Products can be bought at a price formed on the basis of European and world standards of production. Implementation is possible in bulk and retail, for regular customers, a flexible system of discounts operates.
