PCD Quarter-Round Profile Cutter

PCD quarter-round cutter for MDF and solid-wood profiling, in separate 4-tooth (diameter 100-160 mm) and 6-tooth (cutting height 5-40 mm) chart configurations, 35 mm bore.

Design and Construction

The PCD quarter-round profile cutter machines quarter-round edge profiles in MDF and solid wood. The source chart lists separate 4-tooth configurations (100-160 mm diameters with 5-35 mm cutting heights) and 6-tooth configurations (5-40 mm cutting heights), all with a 35 mm bore.

How It Works

The cutter shears the quarter-round edge profile in a profiling pass: the diamond cutting rim holds its edge on abrasive panel materials across long runs. The configuration is selected from the chart against the workpiece thickness and required radius.

Applications

  • Quarter-round edge profiling
  • MDF furniture parts
  • Solid-wood moulding edges
  • Production profiling runs

Suitable Materials

  • MDF
  • Solid wood
  • Wood-based panels
  • Selected board materials

Suitable materials strip

Material Comparison: Tungsten Carbide vs. PCD (Diamond)

This tool is a PCD (polycrystalline diamond) cutter. Tungsten carbide is the conventional alternative. Typical industry data:

Property Tungsten Carbide Cutter PCD (Diamond) Cutter (This Tool)
Hardness 1,500-2,000 HV 7,000-9,000 HV
Best suited for General profiling across mixed materials Highly abrasive boards and long production runs
Tool life vs. carbide baseline 1x (baseline) 10-15x on abrasive panels (typical industry data)
Edge wear on MDF/particleboard Wear visible within shorter runs Minimal wear over extended runs
Toughness Higher toughness; tolerates impacts better Lower toughness; sensitive to impact and metal contamination
Regrinding Can be reground Not reground in the normal case
Initial cost Lower Higher
Cost per part at long runs Usually higher Usually lower on abrasive, long-run work
Typical choice Short runs and mixed materials This tool: long-run profiling on abrasive boards

Typical industry data; actual tool life varies with workpiece, machine and feeds.
