Electroplated diamond and CBN grinding wheels

Characteristics and usage

Contrary to the sintered grinding wheels, electroplated grinding wheels can have core bodies in a huge variety of shapes. Therefore, electroplated wheels are an ideal fit for grinding of special profiles in workpieces.

Another advantage is that higher speed of grinding can be employed at a minimal production of heat.

Last, but not least, electroplated grinding wheels can be stripped of the diamond / CBN layer and replated. This represent significant economical advantage.

Electroplated diamond / CBN grinding wheels are suitable in following applications:

• Production of small and complicated profiles
• Requirement of highly precise profile of the grinding wheel
• Inability to dress the wheel during grinding
• Longer total lifetime of the tool is required (incl. renovations)
