Grinding Wheels for Increased Productivity



Saint-Gobain Abrasives will be featuring new Norton Quantum Prime Grinding Wheels at Motion+Power Technology Expo Booth 2309. The event will be held September 14-16, 2021, at America's Center, St. Louis, MO.

The new wheels have proprietary nano-crystalline ceramic grain which offers increased productivity gains across a range of applications. "The new Quantum Prime grain offers increased grinding efficiency and part quality, as well as longer wheel life than traditional ceramic grains," said a company spokesperson.

"We are excited to offer our customers a superior grinding solution that is producing substantial productivity increases," said Rama Vedantham, Director of Product Management, Bonded and Superabrasives, Norton|Saint-Gobain Abrasives. "In an O.D. bearing grinding application, the Quantum Prime Wheel resulted in 150% more parts per dress than a previous generation ceramic wheel, and also resulted in 300% faster rough/finish infeed for a plunge face grinding application compared with a competitive ceramic O.D. wheel."

"Norton Quantum Prime Wheels feature a new micro-fracturing grain that offers increased sharpness and cutting efficiency, which reduces power draw and cycle times while increasing material removal rates," said the spokesperson. "The unique grain is free cutting, which, combined with advanced bond technologies such as Norton Vitrium3, allows Quantum Prime to wear more consistently, improving part quality, geometry and finish even at high material removal rates. Also, Quantum Prime has a more friable self-sharpening grain technology so grinding wheels stay sharper longer, reducing dress requirements and improving wheel life."
