Profiling with diamond disc dressers (diamond form rolls)

  • Profiling with diamond disc dressers (diamond form rolls)

In profiling with diamond disc dressers, the profile is generated by a controlled motion rather than by the tool shape itself. The grinding wheel is guided over the diamond disc with a defined infeed and moves along a programmed path.
During this process, the profile is gradually ground into the wheel step by step, with both infeed and lateral feed continuously controlled. A constant path speed is essential to achieve a uniform active roughness depth.
Due to their sensitivity, diamond disc dressers are primarily used for precise profiling and correction operations.
