Three components for the perfect abrasive

In view of our current ecological and economic challenges it becomes apparent: Honing with diamond or boron nitride cutting shoes is indispensable in modern production processes.

Numerous factors determine the honing result. The ideal composition of the honing stone and all other influencing factors to the honing process need to be coordinated in order to achieve optimal end results. High production quality, short cycle times and longevity of the tools are achieved in this way.

Defining a suitable honing stone is the task of our specialists with many years of practical experience in the most diverse of applications in the entire field of honing technology.

And not just for Gehring tools, but also tools from other manufacturers.

Honing Stone

In principle, the perfect honing stone consists of three different main components, which offer the required cutting properties as a uniform whole.

The basis and thus the most important component of each honing stone is the abrasive. Synthetic diamonds or cubic boron nitride (CBN) in various grit sizes are used. The second component is the metal bonding which is responsible for the proper adhesion of the abrasive crystals warranting excellent wear performance.

The copper-plated steel blank is the third and last component and is the support material of each stone in a drawn, galvanized form.
