Weiler Abrasives (Cresco, PA) has launched its new Precision Express program that cuts lead times for gear grinding wheels from months to days. The program is designed to help gear manufacturers in industries such as automotive, energy and aerospace improve quality, increase consistency and deliver on time to their customers — for added peace of mind.
Precision Express matches an in-house profiling cell with a broad range of on-hand stock, cutting wheel manufacturing and delivery lead times from months to days. Even when gear manufacturers see a spike in demand or need a custom profile at a moment's notice, Weiler Abrasives can provide consistent availability and delivery.
In addition, Weiler Abrasives’ high performance gear grinding wheels feature proprietary V59 bond technology that ensures exceptional results and addresses customers’ unique needs with flexibility and precision. The advanced formulation of V59 bond technology provides superior grain retention, improving wheel life and grinding efficiency.
Dynamic porosity lowers grinding temperatures through increased coolant efficiency and greatly reduces part surface damage from heat distortion while aiding in exceptional material removal rates — allowing for a reduction in grinding cycle times. The extended wheel life delivered with V59 bond technology also improves profile retention and reduces dressing frequency. The V59-MAX performance bond combines high-performance ceramic and aluminum oxide abrasive grains with superior V59 bond technology to deliver the maximum cut rate, longest wheel life and superior form holding ability.
