When high material removal and dimensional control is a concern, a vitrified wheel should be the first choice. Learn more benefits of a vitrified wheel >

Extensively used in manufacturing diamond grinding wheels, metal bonds are manufactured utilizing three different processes: cold press, semi hot press and hot press modes.

Check out how our engineers were able to add value to carbide grinding using Studer CNC grinders with a custom vitrified grinding wheel by CDT.

Preparing CBN wheels for use requires a bit of effort up front, but will give you long-term benefits that are immeasurable.

When there are problems with a ground surface finish, when productivity is low, or if costs are too high, the fault may lie with the grinding wheel. Changing the grit, wheel feeds and speeds, or coolant application may be the solution, depending on the precise nature of the problem.

Properly dressing your grinding wheels is an important step in helping them to work as they should.

Superabrasives are split into two categories: CBN for use with ferrous material, and diamond for almost all other materials. At only half the hardness of a natural diamond, CBN is the only other material besides synthetic diamonds that is hard enough to be considered a superabrasive.
