Weiler Abrasives, a global leader in abrasives and power brushes for surface conditioning, will showcase the next evolution of abrasive solutions at FABTECH 2024, October 15-17.
Changeovers cost time and money that operations don’t have to waste. Visitors to Booth #W3161 can find surface conditioning solutions to help them improve productivity and uptime, overcome labor challenges, and address safety issues. They can learn more about solutions for a variety of industries, including shipbuilding, metal fabrication, multipass welding, and foundry applications.
Among the new solutions to be featured at the show will be the unique innovation in bonded formulation of the expanded Tiger 2.0 lineup, including the Tiger® Ceramic 2.0 and Tiger INOX 2.0 portfolio of cutting, grinding, and combination wheels. Tiger Ceramic 2.0 cutting, grinding, and combo wheels offer a superior combination of life and cut rate for maximum productivity. The unique design leverages innovative new ceramic grain technology that cuts extremely cool and removes material effortlessly while providing exceptional control for an improved operator experience. Extensive testing shows that the new ceramic wheels deliver an industry-leading 20 percent to 30 percent longer product life than the leading ceramic wheels on the market, with no reduction in cut rate. The INOX 2.0 wheels are designed for high performance when cutting and grinding high-value stainless steel parts. Premium aluminum oxide grains provide a smooth cut rate and consistent performance. Both Tiger Ceramic and Tiger INOX wheels are contaminant-free, so they are safe to use on stainless steel.
A new blending disc product lineup from Weiler Abrasives will also be featured in the booth. The blending discs, ideal for a wide range of blending, weld cleaning, and polishing needs, can help operations save time and money through faster material removal and longer product life in such demanding industries as shipbuilding, structural fabrication and welding.
Weiler Abrasives specialists will also be scheduling consultations at the booth to help visitors understand their abrasive spend, along with ways to increase productivity and eliminate grinding and finishing bottlenecks. These essential consultations will include a thorough discussion of the steps needed to overcome surface conditioning challenges, whether related to labor, safety, or increased customer demand. Specialists can also offer recommendations for better ways to grind and finish stainless steel, Inconel, aluminum, and other hard-to-work-with materials — and how to choose the right abrasive for specific applications.
