Advantages and Disadvantages of Abrasive Belt Grinding

Abrasive belt grinding is a kind of grinding tool with special form, which needs straining device and driving wheel and to make abrasive belt strained and moved at high speed, and under certain pressure, the contact between abrasive belt and workpieces’ surface can help to realize the whole process of grinding and machining.

The advantages of abrasive belt grinding are:

A, Abrasive belt grinding has high production efficiency, and the abrasive grains on the abrasive belts are sharp and have large amount of cutting output; Wide abrasive belt has big grinding area, whose productivity is higher about 5 ~ 20 times than grinding wheel grinding;

B, The grinding energy consumption is low. Abrasive belt has light weight; The contact wheel and tensioning wheel have small size; The high speed rotary inertia is small, so it has small power loss;

C, Abrasive belt grinding has great processing quality. It can ensure the constant speed working, produces less heat and does no need to trim. What’s more, its abrasive grains are sharp, and the cooling condition of abrasive belt is good, which can guarantee high precision and small surface roughness values.

D, Abrasive belt is soft and can stick to the forming surface for grinding, which is suitable for grinding various complex shape surfaces.

E, The structure of abrasive belt grinding machine is simple, and ensure operation safety.

The disadvantages of abrasive belt grinding are:

Abrasive belt consumption is faster, and abrasive belt grinding can not process small diameter holes, blind holes, wheel gear, etc.
