Applications Of Ceramic Bond Diamond Abrasive Tools

Ceramic bond diamond abrasive tools have excellent performance. They have the characteristics of high hardness, high wear resistance, high thermal conductivity and sharp abrasive grains, etc. The characteristics such as heat resistance, water resistance, oil resistance, acid and alkali resistance make them not only have stronger grinding ability than ordinary abrasive grains, but also have less wear and longer service life, and can withstand grinding higher temperature, and at the same time has higher grinding accuracy. They can maintain a good shape for a long time and in addition, the ceramic bond diamond abrasive tools also have more pores, which can facilitate cooling and chip removal, and it is not easy to block and burn the workpiece during grinding. The ceramic bond diamond abrasive tools have good self-sharpening, long dressing interval, easy dressing and low maintenance cost. It is precisely because of the excellent performance of ceramic bond diamond abrasive tools, they have a very important application in industrial production.

Ceramic bond diamond abrasive tools are widely used in practical applications, mainly due to their excellent performance, which not only have the characteristics of diamond, but also combines the characteristics of ceramic bonds, which compared with ordinary corundum and SiC abrasives, have smaller grinding force and lower grinding temperature, at the same time, they can maintain the shape well, and the machining accuracy is also higher. In addition, because they have large pores, it is conducive to chip holding and heat dissipation; they have good self-sharpening and almost no need to be trimmed, so they are widely used all over the world. The main application fields of ceramic bond diamond abrasive tools include: rough grinding, fine grinding and ultra-fine grinding of diamond tools, cubic nitrogen boron tools, cemented carbide and new engineering ceramic materials, cermets, cast iron, and precious stones. And also grinding and processing of concrete, refractory materials, crystalline materials, fiber-reinforced plastics.

Diamond grinding tools are also used in the grinding of PCD compacts. For the grinding of PCD tools, due to the soft resin bond, the PCD tools that are ground are difficult to meet the dimensional accuracy; the metal bond has poor self-sharpening ability due to the strong bonding ability to the abrasive, and the heat generated by the metal bond grinding wheel is too high; considering the grinding efficiency, the durability of the abrasive tool and the processing quality of the tool surface, the ceramic bond diamond grinding wheel is the most suitable choice for grinding PCD tools.

For the grinding of cemented carbide tools, most manufacturers currently choose resin diamond grinding wheels. Although the grinding effect we want can also be obtained, the grinding efficiency is low. For resin diamond grinding wheels, 100-120 grit is generally used for rough machining, while for ceramic diamond grinding wheels, coarse grit is generally used for rough machining. Even with a higher metal removal rate, better surface finish still can be achieved. The ceramic bond diamonds are firmer than the resin bond diamonds, and there are larger air holes between the abrasive grits and the bonds, and each air hole is equivalent to the chip space on the edge of the single-point cutting tool. For the same grinding allowance, the grinding efficiency of ceramic diamond grinding wheel is about double that of resin diamond grinding wheel, and the service life is 2-3 times longer than that of resin diamond grinding wheel.

For the processing of new engineering ceramics, these ceramic materials are prone to cracks during processing, and are also accompanied by a large number of processing problems. The rigidity, large porosity, high temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance of the ceramic bond, and the hardness and porosity of the abrasive can be adjusted according to the needs. It is very suitable for the processing of new engineering ceramic materials and is conducive to improve grinding performance.
In addition, ceramic bond diamond abrasive tools can be used for precision machining of automobile crankshafts and hydraulic gear necks. It can also be used for rough grinding and fine grinding of TV picture tube fluorescent screens. High-performance silicon wafers for integrated circuits are processed with ceramic bond diamond abrasive tools, which have high processing accuracy and low processing roughness. And after processing and grinding, the silicon wafers have no metal ion pollution, and the qualified rate of processed products is high.
Ceramic bond diamond abrasive tools have many advantages, including high grinding precision, high efficiency, low temperature, etc., and have a long service life, good self-sharpening, acid and alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, precisely because of its excellent performance, so it has a very wide range of applications in the field of hard and brittle material processing.
