The "Precision Diamond Grinding Wheel" has a higher bonding strength in the diamond section compared to the core part. When the workpiece is pressed against it, the core part wears out faster. The diamond section is approximately 10 microns higher, ensuring that the workpiece is always in contact with the diamond. The size of the core part and the width of the diamond section can be designed arbitrarily to match the material of the workpiece, allowing for a higher load distribution on the diamond, which maximizes the grinding wheel's capabilities. Additionally, it is a porous body with over 40% porosity, allowing for the ingress and egress of water and air. 【Features】 ■ The abrasive grains in the core part improve processing efficiency due to the action of free abrasive grains. ■ Maximizes non-dress and dress intervals. ■ Load distribution can be controlled through diamond patterning. ■ Achieves high-efficiency processing and reduces total costs. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

"Specific Grinding Energy" is a parameter that represents the relationship between input and output in grinding processes. In other words, it expresses the relationship between the energy input into the process and the resulting grinding rate. Once the parameters of individual grinding wheels are understood, it becomes possible to determine the appropriate grinding rate for specific processing conditions. At Nanotem, we provide suitable tools and equipment for various processing based on this theory. [Features] - A parameter that represents the relationship between input and output in grinding processes - Capable of expressing the relationship between the energy input into the process and the resulting grinding rate - Allows for the determination of the appropriate grinding rate for processing conditions - Provides suitable tools and equipment for various processing *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
