CERAMICON: Your guarantee for a l ­asting high performance The products in our new CERAMICON high-performance line have sharp-edged c ­ eramic grain and thus cut through metal faster. Grinding processes account for an increasing share of daily work in metal construction, or more precisely in plant, tank and construction engineering as well as in shipbuilding. This is why these industries need solutions that are characterized by a high stock removal, long lifetime and short set-up times. And even better if they also reduce the amount of force that has to be exerted by the user and...

The sharp difference: Ceramic grain The products in our CERAMICON high-performance line are made from top-quality ceramic grain. Ceramic grain is characterized by the fact that it is hard, brittle, sharp-edged and overall very aggressive. And stays this way: the ceramic grain is anchored so firmly and precisely in the bond that is splinters continuously during grinding on account of its brittleness. This produces minute fractures in the abrasive grit that constantly form new and very sharp cutting edges. The bond ensures that the ceramic grain only breaks out completely when it is used up....

HydroProtect: The built-in performance protection Our innovation blocks moisture for a longer-lasting improved power. ­ Even when they are not in use: resin-bonded grinding wheels age and their performance diminishes over time. Because during the storage of grinding wheels, moisture penetrates between the bond matrix and abrasive grains and weakens the bond. Rhodius has come up with a formula, HydroProtect, that slows down the ageing process caused by moisture and keeps the performance of the grinding wheels almost constant for several months. This keeps the cutting performance at a...
