Ways of Improving the Service Life of Abrasive Belts

The service life of abrasive belt depends on the cutting performance of cutting edges, which is also mainly influenced by the abrasion area of abrasive belt abrasive grains. To improve the service life of abrasive belts, we need to take the following measures:

A, To cut down the initial wear loss of abrasive belt

The early wear loss of abrasive belt is caused by falling or broken abrasive grains. In order to reduce the early wear and tear, people can reduce contact pressure and grinding time of abrasive belt, and then work properly. This method can be also called dressing, but this is different from the dressing of grinding wheel.

B, To use grinding fluid reducing the wear rate in the stable wear stage

The main purpose of using grinding fluid is to reduce the friction between abrasive grains and workpieces, reducing grinding heat, so as to achieve the effect of lower wear rate.

C, To increase abrasive belt circumference and reduce action rate of abrasive belt

Low action rate of abrasive belt can increase the service life of abrasive belt. Under the condition of enough machine tool equipment, appropriately increasing abrasive belt circumference can make abrasive belt get better cooling and increase the total number of abrasive grains.

D, To appropriately increase the speed of abrasive belt

To increase the speed of abrasive belt can not only reduce the surface roughness, but also decrease the wear to make the life longer.

E, To gradually increase grinding pressure

After entering the normal cutting stage, gradually improving the grinding pressure of abrasive belt can strengthen the grinding process, to generate new cutting edge and recover cutting ability, so as to achieve the purpose of prolonging the service life of the abrasive belt.

F, To improve the cutting performance of abrasive belt 

Great abrasive grains have strong crushing resistance, which can prolong the service life. The cutting performance of classic sand-planting abrasive belt is better than gravity sand-planting. To reduce the thickness of adhesive and the density of the sand, can increase the chip space and the strength of the bond. To some extent, these measures can improve the grinding performance of abrasive belt, and prolong the service life of abrasive belt.
