FiboTec multi-hole An idea borrowed from nature. The innovation by sia Abrasives.

The sunflower principle Nature is a master of engineering. For all nature’s diversity, there is one shape which crops up time and time again. A spiral structure based on a string of numbers known as the Fibonacci Sequence, where each successive number is equal to the sum of the two preceding numbers: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21,… Spirals such as this occur throughout nature, from the tiniest things to the biggest – from snails and flowers to hurricanes and entire galaxies. 2 The arrangement of the seeds on a sunflower is anything but random. Quite the opposite, in fact: the seeds grow in...

Used for FiboTec Taking inspiration from nature and the Fibonacci Sequence, sia Abrasives has developed a groundbreaking new hole pattern for its abrasives. The holes in the abrasive disc are arranged on opposing spirals, such as are found on a sunflower. In sanding applications this hole pattern provides superior dust extraction, significantly reduced clogging and longer life of abrasive materials. Compared to standard hole patterns, FiboTec offers up to 35% faster removal rate with less dust residue on the workpiece and in the workspace. The result: higher abrasive performance thanks to...

FiboTec multi-hole Standard hole pattern Proven in nature. Tried and tested. As with all our innovations, FiboTec underwent testing in practical conditions. The result: FiboTec is much more efficient than standard hole patterns. A real innovation! FiboTec multi-hole Standard hole pattern Only 1 disc for the entire door With FiboTec you achieve up to 3 times higher abrasive performance than with standard hole patterns. This data was obtained under the following conditions: Abrasive: 1960 siarexx, Ø 150 mm, grit: 240. Material: acrylic-based water lacquer. Machines: eccentric, 150 mm, 3 mm...

Your advantages Standard hole pattern FiboTec multi-hole Best dust extraction rates The offset between the holes on the opposing spirals ensures reliable dust extraction across almost the entire surface of the abrasive while the disc is rotating. This reduces dust exposure for people and the environment. Minimal clogging FiboTec has a big advantage, especially when working with materials that easily clog. Thanks to its superior extraction capacity, the abrasive performs measurably better even under extreme conditions and, above all, for longer than abrasives with a standard hole pattern. Up...
