Brief description:

Udo Clever, Managing Director of Clever Diamond GmbH, explains the production and advantages of synthetic diamonds in the tool industry. He emphasises his company's role as one of the largest suppliers of diamond tools in Europe.

Important points:

• Synthetic diamonds are produced from graphite under extreme pressure (approx. 60,000 bar) and high temperature (approx. 1,500 degrees Celsius). This process makes it possible to produce diamonds with similar properties to natural diamonds, but at a lower cost and in a more environmentally friendly way.
• The focus is on diamond cutting discs and drill bits for various materials. These tools are crucial for the construction and manufacturing industry as they offer high precision and durability.
