You invest in expensive abrasive belts and premium coolants, yet micro-scratches still appear on your parts? The problem often lies in the filtration system. Reusing dirty coolant is like trying to wash a mirror with a muddy cloth.

Grinding titanium and alloys with VSM SA562X belts
Grinding titanium and alloys with VSM SA562X belts

Titanium is a metal with a personality. It’s light, strong, and corrosion-resistant, but extremely difficult to process. Due to its low thermal conductivity, titanium doesn't dissipate heat; it traps it in the cutting zone. This leads to instant overheating, oxide layer formation, and rapid destruction of standard abrasives.

Grinding hardened steel: how to avoid overheating

WELDING AND GRINDING ARE INSEPARABLY CONNECTED WITH EACH OTHER
WELDING AND GRINDING ARE INSEPARABLY CONNECTED WITH EACH OTHER

During welding, the task of grinding inevitably arises. This is because the preparation for the weld seam and its subsequent processing are important for obtaining a high-quality joint. Abrasive materials are used to clean the areas to be welded, to remove chamfers and to level the weld seam. The requirements for the tool are therefore very high: it must be suitable for processing large volumes with consistently high quality, to recover a lot of metal and to match the properties of the material being processed. This means, for example, no run marks on heat-sensitive materials and, at the same time, reliable processing of difficult-to-reach alloys.
