Vitrified Bonded Grinding Wheels
Vitrified bonded grinding wheels combine proven bond systems, abrasive materials, and wheel structures for precision grinding applications.
Each wheel is tailored to the material, grinding process, and required balance of productivity, surface quality, and wheel life. The abrasive portfolio ranges from conventional aluminium oxide grains and specialty alumina formulations to ceramic abrasives.
Aluminium oxide abrasives provide consistent results across precision and general-purpose grinding operations.
Ceramic abrasives are selected as part of the overall wheel design to achieve reduced grinding forces, extended wheel life, and reliable grinding behaviour in demanding applications. TriWin™ II grinding wheels provide high material removal efficiency, good surface quality, and consistent process results in demanding precision grinding operations.
Resin Bonded Grinding Wheels
Resin bonded grinding wheels are designed for demanding grinding applications where vibration damping, impact resistance, and process stability are critical.
The portfolio covers roll grinding, OD/ID grinding, cut-off, and other precision grinding applications across different industries. Available abrasive materials include aluminium oxide, zirconia, ceramic, and silicon carbide, combined with established bond systems and wheel structures to achieve the required balance of grinding performance, toughness, and surface quality across different operating conditions.
