»Dia-Fliese-perfect« Diamond Dressing Plates

June 10, 2016

Diamond dressing plates, such as sintered versions, were the innovations of yesterday. »Dia-Fliese-perfect« from Lach Diamond Inc. is today’s new standard diamond dressing tool for perfect cuts, particularly in series production.

The newly developed type of »Dia-Fliese-perfect« with a one-sided, always-visible diamond coating is available from 0.2 mm diamond thickness, and satisfies highest precision requirements for the finest profiling tasks (comparable to a natural diamond tip) and features maximum cutting performance, according to the company.

»Dia-Fliese-perfect« is delivered in a standardized plate size of 10 x 10 mm or 20 x 15 mm, and can either be assembled into holders or soldered (incline as requested). The diamond thickness will be adjusted according to the grinding wheel to be dressed.

»Dia-Fliese-perfect« coated on one side can be used for plunging-in – profiling as well as for longitudinal feeds.

  • dressing

    dressing

    Removal of undesirable materials from “loaded” grinding wheels using a single- or multi-point diamond or other tool. The process also exposes unused, sharp abrasive points. See loading; truing.

  • grinding

    grinding

    Machining operation in which material is removed from the workpiece by a powered abrasive wheel, stone, belt, paste, sheet, compound, slurry, etc. Takes various forms: surface grinding (creates flat and/or squared surfaces); cylindrical grinding (for external cylindrical and tapered shapes, fillets, undercuts, etc.); centerless grinding; chamfering; thread and form grinding; tool and cutter grinding; offhand grinding; lapping and polishing (grinding with extremely fine grits to create ultrasmooth surfaces); honing; and disc grinding.

  • grinding wheel

    grinding wheel

    Wheel formed from abrasive material mixed in a suitable matrix. Takes a variety of shapes but falls into two basic categories: one that cuts on its periphery, as in reciprocating grinding, and one that cuts on its side or face, as in tool and cutter grinding.

  • profiling

    profiling

    Machining vertical edges of workpieces having irregular contours; normally performed with an endmill in a vertical spindle on a milling machine or with a profiler, following a pattern. See mill, milling machine.
