example 1
[0034] From a powder mixture consisting of 6.0 weight-% Co, and balance WC with an average grain size of about 1 μm with 0.01 weight-% overstoichiometric carbon content, turning the inserts CNMG120408 were pressed. The inserts were sintered in H2 up to 450° C. for dewaxing. At 450° C., the furnace was evacuated and refilled with nitrogen up to a pressure of 0.8 atm. The temperature was kept constant at 450° C. during the nitrogen filling procedure. After completed filling, the temperature was increased to 1370° C. with a speed of 15° C. / min, keeping the nitrogen pressure constant. At 1370° C., the furnace was evacuated and refilled with a protective atmosphere of 10 mbar Argon and kept at 1370° C. for 30 minutes followed by an increased Ar pressure of 40 mbar and a temperature increase up to the final sintering temperature of 1410° C. where the temperature was kept for an additional hour before cooling and opening of the furnace.

Reference Example to Example 1
[0036] Pressed inserts from Example 1 were sintered in H2 up to 450° C. for dewaxing, further in vacuum to 1370° C., then filled with a protective gas of 10 mbar of Ar and kept at 1370° C. for 30 minutes followed by an increased Ar pressure of 40 mbar and a temperature increase up to the final sintering temperature of 1410° C. where the temperature was kept for an additional hour before cooling and opening of the furnace.
[0037] The structure in the cutting inserts consisted of a comparably less fine and uniform tungsten carbide grain size in combination with a acceptable binder phase distribution, FIG. 2.
example 3
[0038] Pressed inserts from Example 1 were sintered in H2 up to 450° C. for dewaxing. At 450° C., the furnace was evacuated and refilled with nitrogen up to a pressure of 0.8 atm. The temperature was kept constant at 450° C. during the nitrogen filling procedure. After completed filling, the temperature was increased to 1370° C. with a speed of 15° C. / min, keeping the nitrogen pressure constant. At 1370° C. the furnace was evacuated and refilled with a protective atmosphere of 10 mbar Argon. The actual sintering was limited to a 30 min hold at 1370° C. followed by cooling and opening of the furnace.
[0039] The structure in the cutting inserts consisted of comparably fine and uniform tungsten carbide grain size in combination with an acceptable binder phase distribution, FIG. 3.
