Artifex Technology Enhancing glass edge profiles Surface finishing on metal products Grinding In grinding operations, stock is removed using a tool consisting of an abrasive a bonding medium. The performance on the size, hardness and concentration as well as the hardness and elasticity Abrasive materials The most commonly used abrasives (standard, semi-pure and white) aluminium oxides are softer than them ideal for use with relatively steel, cast steel and malleable cast which is almost as hard as diamond, materials with lower mechanical iron and non-ferrous metals. Hardness One of the major factors affecting is its hardness. The elastic bonding medium used specifically designed to adapt to the individual workpiece. Since each abrasive the bond, a perfect surface finish Grinding with Artifex tools �¡ Artifex elastic bonded tools are applications where conventional resin-bonded tools offer no improvement �¡ Artifex tools are available in a for each individual grit size. The a wide spectrum of performance, high stock removal (hard bond) finishing (soft bond). �¡ Abrasive wheels are much more conventional sanding belt tools because constantly brought to bear on finish achieved with Artifex tools throughout the entire service Surface roughness with Artifex The series of charts on the left shows surface finish that can be achieved grit size on an Artifex P grinding including the type of bonding medium, Flat glass Edge profile Tool shape Bonds/abrasives for Bonds/abrasives for highgloss finish Flat Cup wheel (closed) R, Q, S CER Cup wheel (segmented)* Peripheral wheel Flat and Arris Peripheral wheel R, Q, S CER (for all edge types), cup wheel Bull Nose Peripheral wheel R, Q, EST CER Waterfall CER Triple Waterfall (X-Kante) CER OG edge CER Mitre (45°) Cup wheel (closed) Q, R CER Bevel Cup wheel (closed) Q, R CER Arris Cup wheel (closed) Q, S** CER Insulating and solar glass Peripheral wheel T (removal of surface coating) Laminated safety glass Cup wheel (segmented)* R, Q, S CER Specialist edge deletion Special glass/laminated safety glass Recommended products The following is an overview of recommended products for specific applications and materials: Technical information on Artifex abrasive tools Non-precious metals / alloys Precious metals Process Aluminium Lead Bronze Stainless Copper Brass Steel Cast steel Titanium Tool steel Gold Silver alloy steel alloy Derusting NK–AF NK–AF NK–AF P, Z P P, R, Z P, Z P, Z P, Z P, Z P, R P, Z Deburring R P R R, A, D P P R, A, D R R R P P Descaling NK–AF SC–Vlies NK–AF P P P R R Dressing NK–AF NK–AF NK–AF NK–AF NK–AF NK–AF NK–AF NK–AF NK–AF R R R R P P R R P, R R P R Marbling P, F P P, F P P P P P P P, F P P Depolishing / decorative SC-Vlies SC-Vlies SC-Vlies SC-Vlies SC-Vlies SC-Vlies SC-Vlies SC-Vlies SC-Vlies SC-Vlies SC-Vlies grinding P P P, R P, E P P P, R, E P, R P, R P, R P P Cleaning / deoxidising P, R P P, R P P P P, R P, R P, P, R P P Fine grinding P P P P, A, E, D P P P, A, E, D R R R ,E P P Finish grinding P P P P P P P, R, A P, R P, R P, R P P Fine deburring R P R R P P R R R R P P Polishing SC-Vlies SC-Vlies P, R P P, R P, E P P P, R, E P, R P, R P, R, E P P Engraving P, R P P, R P P P P, R P, R P, R P, R A A Precious metals, non-precious metals and alloys * for thicker edges ** arris without diamond pre-grinel ART 06021 tech_Datenbl_E_RZ 22.06.2006 14:32 Uhr Seite 1
