Abstract

See full text

A cutter assembly for a rotary drill bit comprises a preform cutting element mounted on a carrier. The cutting element includes a thin cutting table of polycrystalline diamond, defining a front cutting face and a cutting edge bonded to a less hard substrate which is in turn bonded to the carrier. The substrate and/or the carrier comprises a first portion of high erosion resistance, formed for example from tungsten carbide, and a second portion of lower erosion resistance, formed for example from tungsten metal, which is located in the vicinity of the cutting edge of the cutting element so that, in use, the wear flat is mostly formed in the material of lower erosion resistance.
