CASE STUDY: Aviation HVOF Grind

Cycle Time cut in half with Vit-Diamond and stationary hDD Dressing Technology

An Aerospace customer was looking to implement vitrified diamond technology for OD grinding of a large aerospace component that was coated with a tungsten-carbide HVOF spray.  The machine was equipped with a stationary dresser block.  Meister engineers supplied a vitrified diamond grinding wheel and a stationary porous hybrid-bonded hDD dressing tool.  The resulting process was 50% faster than the old way of grinding the parts.
