Meister Abrasives’ HPL grinding wheels rely on CBN crystals fixed with a durable, porous, intrinsically-lubricated bonding matrix. This enables faster grinding of difficult materials without sacrificing quality from wheel loading or part burning.
These wheels contain a lubrication that is intrinsic to the bonding matrix chemistry and is released uniformly as the wheel breaks down. Wheels manufactured with this technology minimize friction from interactions with the bond and workpiece, minimize heat generation and deter the onset of metal loading into the bond structure.
The grit retention and lubricating properties of the bond make it possible to utilize high concentrations of premium-grade CBN crystals that in a standard bonding matrix would generate too much pressure and heat. This improves cutting performance and wear resistance.
