Metal Bond

Metal-bonded diamond grinding wheels are typically produced using powder metallurgy techniques, which involve mixing, pressing, and sintering. There are three primary methods for creating metal bond diamond grinding wheel blanks: cold pressing and sintering, hot pressing and sintering, and semi-hot pressing and sintering.

Our synthetic diamond abrasive, recognized as one of the hardest materials in the world, ensures peak performance on non-ferrous workpieces. Coated with nickel or copper, our wheels provide extended durability for efficient and precise grinding. Whether you're working with ceramics, glass, carbide, stone, composites, or other materials, our extensive range of superabrasive wheels will enhance your operations. Available in various shapes, our diamond wheels ensure burr-free cutting edges, minimal thermal damage, and reduced downtime.

  • Metal-bonded diamond grinding wheels are tools that consist of diamond abrasives held together by a metal matrix. These wheels are known for their durability and ability to grind hard materials efficiently.

  • These grinding wheels are ideal for processing a variety of hard materials, including but not limited to:

    • Stone (granite, marble)

    • Concrete

    • Ceramics

    • Glass

    • Carbide

    • Composites

    • High Durability: The metal bond provides superior strength and durability, extending the life of the wheel.

    • Efficient Grinding: The diamond abrasives offer fast and efficient material removal.

    • Precision: These wheels allow for precise grinding and finishing.

    • Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of materials and applications.

  • When selecting a grinding wheel, consider the following factors:

    • Material to be processed: Different materials may require specific types of diamond bonds.

    • Grinding application: Whether you need rough grinding, precision grinding, or polishing.

    • Wheel specifications: Diameter, thickness, grit size, and bond type.

  • Yes, using water or coolant can help reduce heat generation, minimize dust, and extend the life of the grinding wheel. However, ensure that your grinding setup is compatible with wet grinding.
