Grinding

 

When and where required (accurate geometry or size) after sintering

 

With help of a diamond wheel

 

After grinding :

    Shape defect 10 to 50 microns (typical 20 microns PTV on a 1350 mm

    diameter)

    Planarity of a few microns

    Typical Ra roughness 0.3 microns

 

Grinding machines capacity :

    Flat : 2 x 0.9 m

    Circular : diameter 3.5 m
