160mm Diamond step grinding wheel for carbide tools finishing grinding

Diamond step grinding wheels are abrasives shaped with one or more stepped (tiered) faces or shoulders around the wheel periphery or face. Each “step” is a cylindrical surface (or ring) at a different radius or diameter, formed from a diamond-bonded layer (resin, metal, electroplated or hybrid).Steps can be concentric rings on a face, offset shoulders on the rim, or stacked profiles on cup/segment wheels. They are manufactured to precise step heights, radii and widths so a single wheel can grind multiple diameters, shoulders, bevels, or mating surfaces without changing tools.

Consolidates several grinding operations (different diameters/shoulders) into one mounted wheel, reducing cycle time and eliminating wheel changeover.
Improved dimensional accuracy and concentricity

Grinding multiple steps without remounting the part reduces cumulative positioning errors — better concentricity between the stepped features.
