Master Abrasives introduces Meister hDD and cDD stationary dressing tools

Master Abrasives has introduced Meister hDD and cDD stationary dressing tools which provide comparable benefits for aluminium oxide and other conventional wheels on grinding machines that are not equipped with a rotary dresser. It is now also possible to use super abrasive wheels on conventional grinders without rotary dressing.

Meister hDD and cDD cutting-edge dressing tools rely on an advanced hDD bonding matrix that combines tough metal bonding with the natural porosity of a vitrified bond structure, comparable to the porosity found in vitrified CBN grinding wheels. The many advantages of this combination, says Master Abrasives, include more efficient dressing cycles, more consistent conventional grinding wheel performance, increased dressing intervals and improved longevity of the dressing tool itself. Stationary cDD dressing tools feature CVD (chemical vapour deposition) diamond inserts strategically located within the bond structure to reinforce the dressing tool. CVD inserts can be engineered to any size and shape and are strategically located for optimal profile reinforcement, while their microcrystalline structure readily breaks down for continuous self-sharpening.
