Lach unveils latest diamond and CBN grinding wheels

Jakob Lach (Lach Diamant) says that its newly developed diamond and CBN grinding wheels are manufactured with two abrasive layers that enable complete cylindrical grinding (roughing and finishing) in a single set-up.

Suitable for cylindrical grinding machines such as those manufactured by Junker, Schaudt, Mikrosa, Reinecker and Studer, with grinding speeds from 60 to 180 m/s, Lach says that the wheels can reduce processing time by 50%, without detriment to accuracy or surface quality. Furthermore, the metallic or ceramic bonds assure a safe and constant grinding process paired with long service life, it is claimed. Depending on the grinding conditions and specified requirements, the wheels are manufactured with different bodies. As a rule, the grinding wheels in standard execution have a steel body, or steel body with vibration damping grooves, or a fibre composite body as a special design.
