What is electroplated grinding wheel?

Dongju superhard grinding tools store has developed for several years in the grinding tool industry. It specializes in customizing and selling all kinds of diamond grinding wheels and diamond tools. With Taiwan's electroplating process, the quality of all kinds of diamond grinding tools can be guaranteed. Dongju's main products are electroplated diamond grinding wheels, electroplated CBN grinding wheels, electroformed diamond grinding wheels, electroplated grinding rods, grinding heads and other grinding tools. Electroplated grinding wheels are one of our main products, Today, I will explain to you what is electroplated grinding wheel.



There are many kinds of grinding wheels, with the same size and shape. Even the names are varied. Due to the different materials and binders, the names are also different. Many of them are named after their manufacturing materials, some are named after their binders, some are named after their production processes, and electroplated grinding wheels are named after their binders - Electroplated combination method. Therefore, we know that its production process is electroplating. Besides electroplating, the production process of grinding wheel also includes resin, sintering, ceramics and other methods. At present, Dongju superhard grinding tools store focuses on customized products. The grinding wheel produces a variety of grinding wheels with different efficiency according to its manufacturing materials, binders and production processes. Each kind of grinding wheel only has a certain range of adaptability to the grinding range according to its own characteristics, and the grinding wheel is not omnipotent, so the electroplated grinding wheel is no exception, and it has its own range of capabilities. Let's learn about its characteristics below.



Production process of electroplated grinding wheel:

Electroplating is actually a process based on the principle of electrolytic chemistry. It uses the method of the cathode and anode of electricity. Through the decomposition of chemical components into cation and anion ions, the ions are fixed on some products under the action of electricity, so as to form a new layer of material. This method is applied to the grinding wheel. The initial grinding wheel is mainly metal alloy grinding wheel. The grinding wheel is manufactured by sintering. The metal is easy to conduct electricity, which is very suitable for the manufacturing of this principle. Therefore, electroplating method has become another new method for manufacturing grinding wheel. Its basic principle is to use the principle of electrolysis to coat the abrasive on the substrate of metal alloy. The grinding wheel produced by electroplating process has high quality, high production efficiency and low cost. Because of these advantages, it is widely used in the grinding wheel industry.



Materials used for electroplated grinding wheel:

The material of electroplated grinding wheel is abrasive, commonly known as the "teeth" of grinding wheel, which is the most direct part of work. Its selection has a direct impact on the working ability of grinding wheel, because in the work of grinding and processing products, it has to bear intense movement, high friction, high pressure extrusion, and ultra-high temperature. Therefore, the selection of abrasive particles also requires high hardness, so that products softer than it can be ground. They must be heat-resistant so that they will not be dissolved under high temperature. Under ultra-high extrusion, they need to be strong toughness. If they want to cut things, "teeth" should also be sharp. Abrasives are also divided into two types, one is natural, and the other is artificial. Natural abrasives are hard and expensive, while artificial abrasives are cheaper but not so hard. The main materials of electroplated grinding wheel are diamond and boron nitride particles. Diamond is the hardest material. In addition, there are other traditional abrasives such as corundum (brown corundum, white corundum and chromium steel jade) and silicon carbide (black silicon carbide, green silicon carbide).



Grain size of electroplated grinding wheel:

Particle size refers to the size and size of the abrasive particles of the grinding wheel. In addition to the hardness, it also has a great impact on the particle size of the electroplated grinding wheel. The particle size, sharpness and diameter affect the effect of cutting the workpiece. If the particle size is dense, the surface of the polished product is relatively flat, smooth, and smooth. If the particle size is sparse, the grinding is relatively rough, and the finish is poor; If the geometry of abrasive particles is better, the edges and corners are larger and more sharp, then the cutting speed will be faster. If it is the opposite, then the speed of machining and grinding will be slower. In general, electroplated grinding wheels are divided into coarse grinding and fine grinding. Customers can choose according to their workpiece processing requirements. Fine grinding is selected for those with high finish requirements, and coarse grinding is selected for those with high processing efficiency and low finish requirements. The particle size of our electroplated grinding wheels ranges from 30 mesh to 1000 mesh, covering the particle size required by most processing procedures.



Bond of electroplated grinding wheel:

The bond of the grinding wheel is to bond the abrasive particles to the matrix one by one, so that they can form a certain shape of abrasive tools. The bond of the electroplated grinding wheel is to bond the diamond abrasive particles together. At present, there are many known wheel binders, but the main ones are ceramic binders, metal binders and resin binders. The bond has an important impact on the corrosion resistance of the grinding wheel, the impact of grinding work and the firmness under high-speed rotation. The bond also has a certain impact on the smoothness and temperature of the processed products.
