Receramax® PRO

RECERAMAX® PRO is a microcrystalline ceramic grain with a triangular shape. It is ideal for Coated Abrasives and Bonded Abrasives. Tools with RECERAMAX® PRO abrasive grain are preferably used for high-pressure grinding of high-strength stainless steels, Ni-, Co-, Cr-, Ti- based alloys and even for the processing of putty, composites, and paints. Due to the excellent cutting properties of the sharp cutting edges, the sharpness of the abrasive grain also shows excellent grinding behavior with very long tool life when used for finishing in the grit sizes range Pro +80 to Pro +120.

 

In a new grain crushing process developed by RECKEL, the abrasive grain gets a flat shape, similar to a rectangular  profile. This makes the grain very resistant against breakage when used with high grinding forces. Furthermore, the grain was modified in a refining production process in such a way that microcrystalline clusters are formed in the line-shaped structure. This structure causes that a dull  grain creates new cutting edges when it fractures down. Thus, a self-sharpening effect is resulting in a very long tool lives with high stock removal rates. When coating the RT PRO grain in an electrostatic field on Coated Abrasives, it must be taken into account, that the RT grain has a higher mass compared to other grain types and correspondingly higher electrical voltages must be used, e.g. for RT PRO +36 approx. 40 to 60 KV to achieve an optimum grain coating*. The maximum loading temperature within the hardening process of bonded abrasives is, 1430 °C.
