Ceramic Reinforced Grinding Wheels

August Rüggeberg GmbH & Co KG, PFERD-Werkzeuge, has launched new reinforced Grinding Wheels with ceramic oxide grain. These provide ultimate aggressiveness and tool life – optimising the cost-effectiveness of stock removal. The cost-effectiveness of the process of stock removal on steel and stainless steel (INOX) is primarily determined by two factors: the specific stock removal and the service life of the tool used. The higher the specific stock removal, that is the amount of material removed in a certain period of time, and the longer the tool life, the more cost-effective the process. Utilising abrasives, which can be used aggressively, e.g., ceramic oxide grain, in a bond that has been optimally adapted to the grain is ideal for high specific stock removal. This combination ultimately promises the largest possible amounts of material removed in the shortest possible periods of time, that is the highest possible economic value. Properties: the ceramic oxide grain offers aggressive, but cool grinding and the bond ensure the optimal wear characteristics of the reinforced grinding wheel. Because of the self-sharpening effect of the high-performance abrasive in connection with the special bond technology, the tool maintains its abrasiveness throughout its entire service life. This results in a fast work progress and thus significant savings in labour costs compared to the use of conventional reinforced grinding wheels. Moreover, the ceramic reinforced grinding wheel allows working with less effort.
