Application of
Resin Bond Tools
Recommended cutting, grinding and polishing hard, brittle or delicate materials including ceramics, glass tubing, optical glass, carbides, composites, silicon, magnetic materials, thermal spray alloys and exotic metals where low heat generation or improved surface finish is desired. Must be used at higher speeds. CBN, Resin bond Tools are recommended for cutting and grinding hard steels above Rc 60 at high speeds.




Advantages of
Resin Bond Diamond Tools
- Unmatched Cut Quality (eliminates secondary finishing operations)
- Faster & Freer Speed
- Less Heat Generation than other bond types
- Less Stress to material than other bond types
- Can be used dry (without coolant) when needed
- Can withstand Higher Temperature than sintered (metal bond) tools
- Perfect for fragile and delicate materials
- Minimize Chipping
- Improve Surface Finish
- Minimize Material Deformation

About Resin Bond
Its hardness, wear, heat resistance, diamond crystal retention and lubrication is controlled by use of various fillers organic and inorganic (usually ceramic or other metallic powders). Resin bond is low on Youn’s modulus, this gives it the free cutting characteristics for which this bond family is known. These properties is what gives this bond the fast cutting speeds, superior surface finish, and minimal chipping. Resin bond diamond tools are used at higher speeds, the most other bond families.
Resin bond diamond tools have shorter wheel life because the bond is much softer and brittle, and hence is not able to hold the diamond crystals in place as strong as its sintered (metal bond) counterpart.

How SMART CUT® Resin Bond Works?
The sharpest and finest quality diamonds or CBN crystals that go into a SMART CUT® Diamond Resin Bond, immediately penetrate into the material, grinding and polishing as they cut.

Diamonds or CBN Crystals are activated only at the exposed layer. As Bond Matrix layer begin to wear out, diamonds in a new Bond Matrix layer are immediately activated, substituting the already used up diamond layer. The SMART CUT® Diamond Resin Bond makes sure every diamond is in the right place and at the right time, working where you need it most.

The newly exposed diamonds don't effect diamonds already working on the material. Unlike many other diamond bonds, diamonds in a SMART CUT® Resin Bond remains sharp and grow sharper with each cut, prolonging product life and consistent performance.

This advanced formulated open diamond bond design insures minimal chipping, fast cut, constant speed of cut, minimal cutting noise, and most important of all, consistent performance.

Resin Bond
Characteristics
Resin Bond is an organic bond matrix that is formed by high pressure and high temperature. Phenolic resin is used as the bonding agent in majority of resin bond diamond tools. This bond is typically cured at temperatures of 150 to 200 degrees Celsius. Resin Bond is the softest of all the bonds, frequently used in applications that require a smooth surface. This type bond system that is used on majority of grinding applications on large variety of materials. Resin Bond Diamond Matrix promotes faster bond wear, allowing for diamond particles/crystals to break out of their matrix faster, so that new sharp diamond particles become exposed.
This self sharpening characteristic of resin bond matrix, based on faster bond wear is what make this blade an excellent choice for large variety of hard and brittle materials. Primary advantage of this bond type is Minimizing Chipping, and in majority cases elimination of secondary finishing operation (grinding/polishing or fire polishing).

Best Cut Quality &
Surface Finish
Recommended for applications where cut quality and surface finish is very important. Compared to their sintered (metal bond) counterparts. Resin Bond Diamond & CBN offer far superior surface finish than any other bond type. Recommended cutting, grinding and polishing hard, brittle or delicate materials including ceramics, glass tubing, optical glass, carbides, composites and exotic metals where low heat generation or improved surface finish is desired. Must be used at higher speeds. CBN, Resin bond Tools are recommended for cutting and grinding hard steels above Rc 60 at high speeds.
The diamond and CBN crystals used for resin bond wheels are different from those used for metal bond as well. Diamond Crystals used for resin bond are frequently polycrystalline, low strength, metal clad diamond crystal. They are irregular-shaped and easy to micro fracture. This creates new cutting edges constantly while cutting, giving the self sharpening characteristic for which resin bond is known. Often metal coated and unevenly shaped diamond crystal is preferred in manufacture of this bond type as it helps further improve crystal retention. Resin Bond Diamond Tools are typically used with coolant, but can also be used dry on many applications. By adding specializes filler and/or using specialized coated diamond crystal to reduce heat generation.
