Abstract
This paper presents the possibility of using the Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) method to obtain WCCo composite materials. Such materials are used as cutting blades for machining wood-based materials. Two series of composites, different in grain size and cobalt content, were analyzed in the paper. The produced materials were characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and tribological properties were determined. In addition, preliminary tests were carried out on the durability of the blades made of sintered WCCo composites while machining three-layer chipboard. The results of the microstructure analysis proved that the SPS method makes it possible to obtain solid composites. Phase analysis showed the occurrence of the following phases: WC, Co, and Co3W9C4. The lowest friction coefficient value was found in samples sintered using powder with an average primary particle size of 400 nm (ultrafine).
