Metallographic Grinding: Grinders & Consumables :: QATM
The aim of metallographic planar grinding is to remove roughness from the metallographic cutting process and to achieve flatness of the ground surfaces. The abrasive itself depends on the material to be ground. For soft materials, this is essentially silicon carbide (SiC) as paper, foil, disc or stone.For harder materials ( 300 HV, e. g. hardened steel or ceramics), diamond discs are however used.
