DRESSING STICKS FOR PRECISION DIAMOND TOOLS

 

 

 

 

 

Dressing sticks made from silicon carbide or alumina oxide (soft bond) are usually used for dressing diamond tools.  

Diamond Tools must be used with diamonds exposed properly through frequent dressing. Otherwise, the diamond tool will glaze over. They will begin to tear rather than grind which is very destructive. Tearing caused from unexposed diamonds creates friction. This causes uneven wear and heat cracks in the diamond tool as well as material being machined. Resulting in premature diamond tool wear, blade tensioning problems, and will eventually destroy the diamond tool. The more a diamond tool is dress the cooler it will drill or cut.

 

Dressing Stick Types

Different types of dressing sticks break down differently under a variety of conditions. The dressing stick used must be compatible with the bond and mish size (grit) of the diamond tool, in addition to the RPM's of the machine. Silicon carbide crystals are less friable and are sharper than alumina oxide crystals which are more friable and break down easier. If the diamond wheels running at RPM's that are too high and / or SFPM is too fast and / or the diamond wheel bond is too hard in relationship to the dressing stick, the diamond tool may not cut freely through the dressing stick causing the operator to believe the dressing stick may be too hard.
