will be Highlighted at FABTECH Booth #B35007
WORCESTER, MA, U.S.A. (July 10, 2023) – Saint-Gobain Abrasives, one of the world’s largest abrasives manufacturers, has announced that at FABTECH, located at McCormick Place in Chicago, IL from September 11-14, 2023, it will feature how to “Work Smart with Norton” by exhibiting a range of abrasives that optimize the user experience. Norton abrasives highlighted at FABTECH will include the latest in grinding, cut-off, blending and finishing solutions to address today’s challenging application requirements. The company also has ways to increase user productivity by automating grinding processes. Norton established the new Abrasive Process Solutions (APS) Program to help customers determine the optimal grinding or finishing solution for the application at hand, ranging from simple to complex, off-hand or automated, and for metal fabrication, production grinding and virtually any abrasives operation.
Norton continually researches, designs and manufactures abrasives, as well as offers grinding application guidance, by prioritizing the user experience. Abrasives highlighted at Norton’s FABTECH booth will include:
- New Norton Vortex® Rapid Prep Non-Woven Flap Discs that last longer and produce significantly increased cutting rates and smear-free finishes simultaneously. Norton patented Vortex agglomerated aluminum oxide grain technology enables the cutting power of a coarser grit while producing a finer finish in one abrasives disc solution.
- New Norton Vortex® Rapid Blend Coarse Grit Wheels and Discs offer a finishing process solution that reduces and blends welds in a single operation, providing a 30% - 50% improvement in productivity, while leaving smear-free finishes.
- Norton QUANTUM3™ (NQ3) Line of Grinding and Cutting Wheels cut fast and sharp, achieving increased metal removal in less time, with less operator fatigue to significantly increase grinding output and lower costs. The wheels feature a proprietary grain along with a tougher bond system containing a unique combination of fillers and bonding agents.
- Norton BlazeX F980 Fiber Discs have premium ceramic alumina micro-fracturing grain and proprietary COOL FRICTION technology, resulting in more parts per disc. BlazeX offers higher material removal rates in a wide range of grinding processes in stainless steel and harder-to-grind materials.
- New “Norton for Aluminum” Thin Wheels for the right angle cutting and grinding of aluminum and other non-ferrous soft metals. High quality, extra-friable and self-sharpening aluminum oxide grain and specialized bond technology results in the best cutting and grinding wheel market performance in its class.
