Saint-Gobain Abrasives’ Norton Xtrimium™ products provide an expansive range of solutions for challenging gear grinding applications. The Norton Xtrimium™ range of gear solutions is designed for high-performance gear grinding in extreme, tight-tolerance environments. The structured portfolio of gear-grinding products is specifically designed by category to provide higher profile accuracy, supreme form holding, and burn-free grinding in worm, profile, and bevel applications. Highlighting the range is an innovative dual-worm wheel design that enables two operations in one grinding wheel, substantially saving time and cost.
Norton Xtrimium dual-worm grinding wheels feature a design with a high-performance vitrified bond section for grinding and a fine-grit resin section for polishing the gear teeth, enabling one wheel to perform what traditionally required two wheels. Substantial savings in wheel costs and productivity via the elimination of wheel swapping can be achieved with the Norton design. In addition, improved surface finishes of Rz = 1.0mm and Rpk = 0.05mm, and reduced harmonics (noise) are realized.
The Norton Xtrimium Dual-Worm grinding wheels can also be adapted to existing machines.
The Norton Xtrimium Gear Grinding Platform also covers the whole range of gear grinding processes, and leverages the whole spectrum of Norton grains and bond technologies to match each customer’s requirements, whether with:
Worm Grinding Wheels featuring micro-structured ceramic grain and providing free cutting action and wheel homogeneity, allowing constant performance throughout the wheel thickness for the life of the wheel.
Profile Grinding Wheels, which are ideal for deep profile gear grinding. The wheels feature high porosity and permeability, create exceptionally high material removal rates.
Bevel Grinding Wheels featuring a highly porous bevel formation for extremely fast, burn-free cutting.
