<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nThe earliest use of diamonds in industrial capacities was in India, where mining started before the Common Era. The Indians called it Vajra, which translates to the thunderbolt in English, as its properties were similar to that of the thunder, given its striking qualities and light reflection abilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This discovery dates back as early as the 4th century, and at that point, it was already considered a precious resource. The next significant contact with this revolutionary material was by the Chinese. It is used mainly as a carving tool to create jade or drill beads and pearls. In early Chinese writing, it was referred to as \u201cKun Wun\u201d or \u201cKin Jang,\u201d which directly translates to Jade-cutting knives in English. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The earliest traders of diamonds made sure to keep the ultimate source of the precious material hidden by employing confusing trade routes to transport them to the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the years, the use of the diamond split into two factions. One involves producing jewelry, while the other uses industrial-grade diamonds as a significant component of industrial cutting tools. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is also crucial to point out that diamond enjoys extensive usage across various industries. The mining industry accounts for a sizeable majority of this usage because of its hardness and ability to cut through any other hard substance currently known to man.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nThere are numerous reasons diamond enjoys extensive usage as an industrial cutting tool, and we\u2019ll discuss some of the major ones here. They include;<\/p>\n\n\n
One of the significant reasons why diamond is useful as an industrial cutting tool is its hardness. <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n
This quality encourages its use as an abrasive; Small particles of industrial-grade diamonds are perfect as embedments in saw blades, grinding wheels, and drill bits<\/a>. Diamond is the hardest material known to man and, therefore, can be used to cut through other hard materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When used as an abrasive, you can rest assured that you will cut through any other hard surfaces, no matter how hard. Industrial-grade diamonds are used as fittings for the edges of numerous saw machines, including diamond saw blades, circular saw blades, and other saw machines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The diamond-fitted edges give your saw machines more brittle against other hard substances. It helps them to last longer than saw machines fitted with conventional saw blades. <\/p>\n\n\n
Another primary reason diamond enjoys extensive usage as an industrial cutting tool is its high melting point.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n
A high melting point allows its use in cutting other hard materials regardless of how hot and painful it might be to cut through these materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diamond, both industrial-grade and otherwise, can resist a lot of heat and pressure and is the material with the highest melting point known to man. Diamonds have a melting point of 4892 degrees Fahrenheit, burning at 1472 degrees Fahrenheit. It is also proven that in the real sense, a diamond does not melt but sublimes to vapor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ability of a diamond to resist heat and such high temperatures encourages its use in numerous industries, especially the mining industry, where the weather is a common phenomenon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When your diamond saw blades and other tools are with a diamond, it becomes easier for them to resist high temperatures and perform as effectively as you require. <\/p>\n\n\n
Durability is another reason diamond enjoys widespread usage as an industrial cutting tool. <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n
Of course, diamonds are some of the most durable materials known to man. This material’s hardness and high resistance to almost every unfavorable condition earn it this excellent spot. Therefore, it is no wonder that, in many cases, your diamond-fitted equipment outlasts other machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diamonds are so durable that their application in other use cases, such as hip replacement, is currently in vogue. When you use a diamond-fitted cutting tool, you can rest assured that your machine will last longer than conventional cutting tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The diamond saw machine, no doubt, enjoys extensive usage due to its ability to steer clear of wear and tear for much longer than the regular saw machine. It is made possible as a result of the fact that it fits with industrial-grade diamonds. <\/p>\n\n\n
Diamonds are also very widely used in semiconductors.<\/h3>\n\n\n
Diamonds use in semiconductors because of their thermal stability,, making them very valuable in the production of microchips. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A Diamonds also have a very high electrical field resistance that helps to suppress power conversion losses. It makes them perfect as semiconductors for electronic devices requiring intense power kilovolts. This makes them particularly useful in the locomotive industry to power electric railways, trams, vehicles, and power transmissions. <\/p>\n\n\n
Diamonds are also popularly used to increase tool effectiveness, a necessity in various industries.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n
Generally, the use of diamond fittings generally increases the effectiveness of your industrial tools because of the numerous properties of diamond that make it stand tall above many other materials. These properties include; hardness, durability, high melting point, and heat resistance, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All these properties help to give your tool an added advantage over other conventional industrial tools and give you more efficiency in case uses than the standard tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

- Another exciting reason for the diamond as an industrial cutting tool is its effectiveness in creating laser devices and incredible light pulses.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Diamonds are also advantageous in creating super lasers because of their high optical gain. When this ability to amplify combined with their ability to conduct heat, they become the go-to for high-power applications in the electrical industry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diamonds have paved the way for the laser industry, from using masts to creating more suitable ones for producing super-laser beams. <\/p>\n\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nUnlike other materials, diamond is one of a kind, and numerous industries attest to this, including; petroleum, mining, construction, military, and many other sectors of note.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the years, diamonds have helped these industries achieve more than they ordinarily have. This material is so sturdy that no other material can cut through it except itself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The use of diamonds in these varying industries has helped to craft unparalleled efficiency, especially in sectors where you cut other hard materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The use of diamonds in these industries also helps to increase the durability of cutting tools as opposed to other conventional materials. Undoubtedly, diamond-fitted cutting machines last longer than cutting tools that do not have diamond fittings. It means you can use your cutting tools for as long as possible without fear of wear and tear. <\/p>\n\n\n
Section 4: Personal Experiences with the Use of Diamonds in Industrial Cutting<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\u201cThe first contact I had with using diamonds as a cutting tool was on a courtesy visit to a friend who worked in the petroleum mining industry. He\u2019d just ordered a few diamond saw blades for his factory launch, and we traveled down to the warehouse to take the inventory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I realized that these saw machines were quite different from the ones I use in my orchards. And while my tools only lasted a few months before replacements, the manufacturers offered a ten-year warranty on these new machines. I was dumbstruck, as, before this experience, I believed it was impossible for cutting tools to last as long before wearing off or becoming ridden with blunt edges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, I had to ensure that it wasn\u2019t just a marketing strategy. And I requested that my friend lease a diamond saw machine for use in my orchard for some months. The results were overwhelming that I placed an order for more saw machines with diamond fittings, and I\u2019ve never looked back since then.\u201d –John, Oklahoma. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019ve worked in the mining industry for about eight years now. I learned a lot on the job about drilling machines and their varying levels of efficacy when it came to precious mining materials. My company was a bit conservative, so we didn\u2019t adopt diamond-fitted drilling tools until five years ago. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I realized that by drilling bits<\/a> with diamond edges, our work became more comfortable, and the rate of blade changes reduced significantly over time. –Dave, Houston, Texas.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
