Bonded abrasives can be subcategorised into conventional bonded and precision bonded abrasives.
Coated abrasives are commonly recognised as traditional sandpaper and can be found in most home improvement stores.
However, when it comes to surface finishing, conventional ceramic-coated abrasives are known to be brutal on base materials, wear out abrasive discs quickly, and produce inconsistent results.
In fact, it would be fair to say that the only thing that is consistent about coated abrasives for production is that they are bad for a business’s bottom line.
Efficient use of time, resources, and materials is critical to the success of an operation and that includes reducing the need for rework on projects.
Furthermore, to improve a workpiece’s surface and achieve the desired finish, operators require premium precision abrasive tools that will prevent materials from being damaged and reduce the need for rework on projects.
Achieving the perfect surface finish is an exact science
