Grinding Wheels

The art of producing high quality abrasive products consists in finding out the correct composition of raw materials, combined with the correct production procedure for individual applications.

The raw materials used are Aluminum Oxide ( brown, pink, white & SA ) and Silicon Carbide ( black & green ).The most important part of the grinding wheel is the vitrified bond which joins the grains.

We use various types of bonds specially developed for each operation of grinding and manufacture wheels upto 500mm in diameter for centerless grinding ,surface grinding and cylindrical grinding. We have also developed special cool cutting bonds for use on work pieces like drills, milling cutters ,saws, gears, thread grinding etc, where cutting quality & low heat generation are specially important .

Special fine grit wheels for fine polishing on various materials before buffing ,have been developed by us . Our range of these wheels are in grits 320 to 1200 as per FEPA standards. Our range comprises of wheels for :

· Rough grinding · Precision grinding · Cutting of metal · Cutting of ceramic · Cutting of glass · Cutting of stone · Cutting of any other ferrous or non ferrous materials

INTERNAL GRINDING WHEELS These are small grinding wheels which are used for grinding internal surfaces. We have developed very special wheels for the following applications:

Grinding of inner and outer faces of Ball & Roller Bearings. Grinding of Bores of inner rings. Grinding of Hydraulic and Pneumatic cylinders. Grinding of Connecting Rod ends in the automobile industry Grinding of Gun Barrels. Grinding of Gear bores, collets etc.

The applications mentioned call for high accuracy to the tune of microns. Conventional grinding wheels are unable to give such accuracy due to their uneven wear while grinding. We have developed a special bond system which gives the wheel, the most important property of shape retention. For grinding the tracks of ball bearing races the wheels are sulphur treated to provide cool cutting even at very high speeds of 80 mps. Mixed Aluminum Oxide wheels are manufactured to give properties lying in between the two extremes of higher material removal and longer life.

PVA PRODUCTS PVA products are chemically bonded and unlike vitrified or resinoid products, these are very soft and flexible. The structure of these wheels is like a natural sponge and has three dimensional pores.

Grades and sizes : The product is available in 46 grit to 400 grit in green silicon carbide but we can supply any grit upto 1200 grit in silicon carbide or aluminium oxide. These are available as grinding wheels, mounted points, honing stones and blocks in size up to 260 mm in diameter. Bigger sizes can be manufactured on request.

Usage : These products are mainly used for polishing applications like polishing of watch cases, audio and video heads, printing rolls, cylinders, compressor parts, surgical equipment, vehicle rims, tools and auto parts, dies & moulds etc. PVA products can polish any material ferrous or non-ferrous, metal or non-metal. Some examples are stainless steel, brass, steels, copper, aluminium, bronze, glass, stones etc. Besides polishing, these products can be used for burr removal, descaling, rust removing and for any such applications. One can achieve finishes as high as 0.03 micron on steel components. Basically a mirror finish can be easily obtained with these products.

Equipment : No special machines are required to use PVA wheels. The wheels can be used with all conventional machines like bench grinders, electric hand grinders, surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, tool and cutting grinders, etc. The wheel is flexible and hence can be easily dressed with conventional dressing tools or even by a used piece of a vitrified grinding wheels. It can be dressed to any desired shape easily. These products are used mainly for polishing and as such too much of material removal cannot be expected. For burr- removal coarse abrasives can be used.

Limitations :Due to its flexible nature the maximum operating speed is 25 mps. Wheels are hydrophilic in nature , hence they absorb moisture and stop cutting. No coolant is required. Storage should be in polythene bags and at a dry place. In case of efficiency going down due to moisture absorption, the wheels can be dried in sun for an hour or so or can be dried in oven at 45 deg. C for about an hour for regaining its original properties. For fine finished, some wax or a drop or two of oil can be applied to the cutting surface.

How to use

The wheels should be mounted on the conventional machine. The flanges should be 2/3 rd the wheel diameter.

In case of mounted points, conventional electric grinder can be used. After mounting, the wheels should be dressed to the required shape and then some wax or wax based compound or oil can be applied to the wheels if fine finish is required.

For burr-removal, descaling etc., nothing is to be applied. After polishing the component with the wheel, the same can be buffed using a cloth wheel if mirror finish is required.


Grinding : Recommended for precision grinding of steel, 55 HRC and above , in cylindrical and centreless operation under coolant conditions where in higher stock removal and polish are the criteria.

Cutting : Starting fro the thinnest of cutting to deep plunge grooving of metals. They exhibit perfect grinding and polishing in the component.

Polishing : Wheels are flexible, imparting a high accurate finish in microns. The finish obtained under dry conditions are free from scratches, chatter and score marks.

Regulating wheels : Mainly for centreless machines. Their resilient character in plunge through feed and in form grinding makes it a better product for such application.

Flute grinding : These wheels are used for grinding flutes of drills and taps. These wheels have high material removal characteristics.

Rubber bonded grinding wheels show different characteristics compared to other grinding wheels.They are resilient and as strong as others. These are suitable where coolant is used. The finish obtained with them is high and rich. They can be used in precision grinding, polishing and regulating.

Standard Shapes

SHAPE :

All shapes and sizes available as per FEPA standards. Special shapes and sizes can also be supplied as per customer's requirements.

GRIT SIZE :

Available in all grits and micro grits as per FEPA standards. It is chosen based on the quantity of material removal and desired finish.

CONCENTRATION :

It means the quantity of Diamonds or CBN in the rim. 100% concentration means 4.4 carats per Cubic Centimeter. A high concentration means the wheel lasts longer, denser and less malleable. It is very necessary to select the right grit size and concentration to achieve the best results while grinding.

BONDS :

The most important part of the wheel. The right bond holds the grit unit it is optimally worn out. Insufficient bond holding causes a quick wearing out of the wheel where as an excessive holding generates high temperature and clogs the wheel effecting its cutting action. Our bonds are prepared with synthetic materials of various characteristics to give the best

advantage.

ADVANTAGES :

Faster Production rate - depth of the cut can be as high as 5 times the conventional in certain cases. Longer Life - by a factor of 4 times over conventional Abrasives. More accurate grinding - due to lower wear rates. Wet or Dry grinding - with specially developed bonds.Less heat generation - so less damage to cutting tool edges and greater dimensional accuracy. Less noise and less dust generation.

HOW TO ORDER :

It is very important to provide the exact and all the necessary details while ordering to get the right material at the right time when needed. The following shows the details to be informed while ordering a diamond or a CBN wheel.
