Compagnie de Saint-Gobain / Courbevoie – France
Shareholders : Norton Foreign Affiliates Holding Corporation
Saint-Gobain Abrasives, the world’s leading abrasives manufacturer, is the only international supplier of abrasives that manufactures each of the 5 majors types of abrasives: Thin Wheels, Bonded Abrasives, Coated Abrasives, Super Abrasives and Construction Products.
Norton, our premium brand offers a range of innovative products and technical abrasive solutions, designed to guarantee productivity and excellent performance in all typical applications in the aerospace and turbine markets. Advances in Norton’s research and development has generated grain and bond technology intended to improve part quality, reduce tooling cost and increase throughput across a number of metal applications.
Norton Vitrium³ is an example of innovation in grinding wheel technology that is reshaping the world of precision grinding by providing cool cutting capabilities, maintaining a more precise profile and allowing an increase in the speed of operations in surface, creepfeed and fast reciprocation grinding applications. Norton Vortex2™ and Altos IPX grinding wheels are other examples of high performance solutions for grinding on multi-axis CNC machines.
In addition to grinding wheels, Norton also offers diamond dressing solutions for perfect profile accuracy, abrasive belts for applications from shaping to finishing and large and medium diameter cut-off wheels for cutting sizable metal components. For light materials and composites, Norton manufactures a wide range of coated, specialties and non-woven abrasives for blending, refining, de-burring, surface preparation, cleaning and polishing applications.
Norton Diamond Roller Dresser helps to maximize dressing efficiency on grinding aerospace components.
Norton E-Form reverse-plated dressing rolls use controlled exposure of the diamond matrix to create a more free-cutting roll. This results in reduced dressing forces which in turn helps reduce vibration and improve part finishes, particularly when dressing vitrified CBN grindiing wheels in aerospace applications.
NORTON solution for grinding aerospace & land turbine components: a high porous wheel with higher material removal, exceptional cool grinding and reduced cycle times in heat and stress sensitive processes.
The very best NORTON Quantum X brings you unrivalled performance creating the ultimate grinding experience.
Choose Norton Coated abrasive products to improve the quality of your finished parts, minimize abrasive costs, and reduce production time.
Norton Diamond Wheels Features and benefits:
▪ Dressing of complex, intricate forms (i.e. aerospace root and tree forms) at realistic, low cost.
▪ Decreased normal forces during dressing results in reduced vibration, improved size-holding, and improved finished part quality
▪ Uniformly distributed, high diamond concentration extends diamond dressing roll form-holding and life
▪ The precise diamond profile needs little or no lapping; close tolerances are achieved “out of the mold” ( ±0.005mm / ±.0002″)
▪ These sharp natural points provide a superior dressing action, resulting in an open grinding wheel and lower grinding forces
