Careful wheel mounting is essential when grinding with a Diamond or CBN wheel. For best performance, the Wheel should be mounted perfectly Normal and concentric to the machine spindle. Out-of roundness is not a major problem with cup and face wheels. Straight diamond wheels such As Type 1A1 usually require truing after mounting. An out-of round straight wheel will pound the work piece surface, reducing wheel life and impairing surface finish. This can be avoided By truing the wheel so its entire surface is concentric with the spindle within 0.0005 inch (.0127mm.) Resin-bonded wheels can be trued, using A silicon carbide brake controlled truing device

Braemar SDDD Dressers for Diamond and CBN Resin Bond wheels is the most efficient and cost effective ways to true your Super Abrasive wheels. Removing run-out increases grinding accuracy, surface finish, and wheel life. Braemar stocks 1/4", 3/8", 7/16", & 5/8" SDDD Dressers for immediate delivery.

Braemar manufactures and stocks Dressing Sticks for Diamond and CBN Wheels . Aluminum oxide or silicon carbide are used for truing, shaping, and dressing super abrasive wheels.
