Cool Cutting

Vitron7

With cooler grinding and lower Specific Grinding Energy (SGE), Norton Winter Vitron7 vitrified cBN grinding wheels minimize residual stress to deliver superior part quality. The uniform force per cBN particle requires lower grinding power and results in longer wheel life while significantly reducing cost per part and overall manufacturing costs.
