| Improved
Grinding
Borazon CBN is recognized as one of the greatest technological advancements for
grinding hardened ferrous and superalloy materials. It is second in hardness only
to diamond with twice the hardness and four times the abrasion resistance of typical
conventional abrasives. Borazon CBN, with exceptional thermal conductivity, provides
improved surface integrity in the grinding of hardened tool, die and alloy steels,
as well as nickel and cobalt-based superalloys.
Optimum
Performance in All Bond Systems

| In the manufacturing
jungle, it's survival of the fittest... |
The family of Borazon CBN products achieves optimal performance in conjunction
with a variety of bond systems. Diamond Innovations offers numerous crystal coatings
and surface treatments to enhance crystal retention and performance characteristics.
These coatings were developed to improve performance through greater crystal retention,
heat transfer, and lubricating qualities.
New Material
No Match for CBN
In today’s manufacturing arena there are hundreds of raw materials being
ground, from superalloys and thermal sprays in aerospace, to hardened steel in
bearings and gears. Borazon CBN grinds these materials with extreme efficiency
and optimum cycle times.
Machine
Technology Takes Full Advantage of CBN
Borazon CBN enhances the capability of modern machine tools providing increased
productivity and higher operating efficiency. With longer life and minimal wheel
wear, expensive machine tools stay operating longer between tool changes and need
fewer adjustments during operation. Parts are of better quality when ground with
Borazon CBN, with no thermal damage, better finishes and improved part to part
consistency.
Hidden
Costs the Major Expense
Typically, superabrasive tool expenditures represent less than 10% of total
process cost while the benefits of superabrasives can have far reaching impact.
Manufacturers have learned that the initial cost of a superabrasive wheel may
be more than a conventional wheel but factoring in all the hidden costs (scrap,
rework, downtime, etc.) to the total equation proves Borazon CBN is the clear
economic winner!
Grinding with Borazon CBN results in improved part quality and consistency, shorter
cycle times and overall greater manufacturing efficiency. It can also reduce the
total cost equation.
