Tool grinding
Optimal performance in normal tool grinding practice is important for any company. The precision and lifespan of ground cutting tools is largely influenced by the quality of initial grinding as well as subsequent grinding. Because the tools to be ground are exposed to considerable mechanical, thermal and chemical loads, it is important that these are minimised by using suitable abrasives.

This has a significant effect on tool operation with regard to cutting quality in the production process, tool service life and the overall efficiency of the production process.

BSW offers an ideal range of abrasive products for hard, high-alloyed tools (milling cutter, turning tools, hob cutters and drills) with high-performance sintered aluminium oxide qualities. The grinding performance is high, the grind cool and the lifespan long.
