The design and operation of tools employing Compax blanks together with the coarser grained, polycrystalline diamond compact is discussed. This newer type of tooling is used in automotive and some woodworking applications. Included are tool life data concerning the machining of hypoeutectic silicon aluminum power train components, where the switch from carbide to Compax blank tooling has resulted in tool life improvements of between 100-200 times.
