In contrast, cvd diamond thick film can be special, simple technology brazed on the desired substrate. However, this is by no means the strength of the brazed joint strength equivalent to pcd, in such a high demand for interrupted cutting machining procedure, this connection becomes very vulnerable. Otherwise, cvd diamond thick film will be able to compete with pcd entire machining applications. Compared with pcd, its main advantage is its better thermal stability, the drawback is higher brittleness and non-conductive. Lack conductivity hinders cutting and machining technology which is used to discharge corrosion (edm), the technology in the diamond tool industry, especially in the wood processing production and finishing on tool has been widely used. But can edm cutting tool material thickness cvd already created, it is currently being evaluated. Its potential applications as well as high wear resistance of machining a workpiece, in this case the main advantage of the high-purity diamond cvd diamond thick, and abrasion resistance and improve the thermal stability of the resulting.

The current high costs cvd diamond films, with the development of technology, the manufacturing cost will be gradually reduced, and eventually into the cemented carbide tool industry.
