  • Patent number: 11407038
    Abstract: A cutting element (1) for a tool with an electrically conductive track (6) formed at a surface region. The cutting element (1) comprises a HPHT produced polycrystalline diamond body. The conductive track (6) comprises graphite such that the electrically conductive track (6) has an electrical resistance substantially lower than that of the surface region.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220228443
    Abstract: A cutting element (30) includes a substrate (40) having a peripheral side edge, the peripheral side edge having an associated radius of curvature; and a body of superhard polycrystalline material bonded to the substrate along an interface, the body of superhard polycrystalline material (39) having a peripheral side edge and a longitudinal axis. The body of superhard polycrystalline material (39) has a working surface (54); and a plurality of spaced apart cutting edges extending to the working surface (54) through respective chamfer portions (62), the cutting edges (61, 76) being spaced around the working surface by a further region. The cutting edges (61, 76) have an associated radius of curvature, the radius of curvature of one or more of the cutting edges being less than the radius of curvature of the substrate. A method of making such a cutting element is also disclosed.
