RESINOID BOND ONLY
DIAMOND GRINDING
WHEEL
& CBN
WHEEL TRUEING TOOLS
A major breakthrough in truing / dressing resin
diamond and CBN wheels-tests resulted in wheels trued with .0005"
flatness without coolant and without removing the wheel from the
machine.

Step by Step guide
Gidco-Foulkes Trueing Tool on Resinoid Bonded Diamond and
CBN wheels.
A
wheel trued in this manner will exhibit excellent cutting action on work
pieces and leave a correct surface (on accordance with the grit size of
the Diamond/CBN wheel).
Step 1. Place trueing tool in
holder. Expose not more than 1/2" of trueing tool (on radius dresser
more is allowed.).
Step 2. Turn off woke light to
better observe active sparking interface. Turn off coolant.
Step 3. Set up feed (tool travel) to
move at a moderate to fast speed, an active sparking interface is the
desired effect. Excessive tool wear will be the result of a slow feed
setting.
Step 4. Set up downfeed using the
chart below. Correct downfeed is determined by the hardness and grit
size of the wheel. It's importnt to note at this point that more is
better when it comes to calculating the downfeed of the wheel to be
trued. DO NOT "BABY" the tool! Cautious downfeeding of the wheel to be
trued will simply wear away the trueing tool with no positive effect to
the Diamond/CBN wheel.
Maximum downfeed (or infeed)
100 grit or
coarser..................................................................
.004"
180 to 280
grit........................................................................
.003"
320 grit and
finer...................................................................
.002"
Step 5. Allow Gidco-Foulkes trueing
Tool to make several passes (2-3) at this position. Trueing in one
direction only will leave a crown on wheel.
Step 6. Reduce the downfeed of the
wheel with each set of 3 passes across the wheel, for example by going
from .001 - .0005- and then to .0002 until the wheel is trued. A wheel
trued in this manner will exhibit excellent cutting action on work
pieces and leave a correct surface finish (in accordance with the grit
size of the Diamond/CBN wheel).
Centerless Wheels For the trueing of
centerless diamond wheels use the 5/8" diameter tool and feed tool
through its outer diameter as if it were a workpiece. Use feeds as
outlined in step 4.
Note: Always wear eye protection and use good grinding
practices regarding ventilation.
