Challenge: A High-Quality, Low-Cost Sharpening Wheel

A commercial meat slicing company was using a resin diamond-bonded wheel to sharpen the many saw blades on its meat-cutting machines, but it needed to reduce costs. The company wanted both design and manufacturing assistance, as it sought a more cost-effective sharpening wheel.

Solution: Custom Options and a Flexible Approach

Working directly with Abrasive Technology's in-house engineering team, the company presented a drawing of its current wheels. We swiftly developed several options – including electroplated and brazed wheels – adapting proven applications to the meat-cutting machines. The client spent a few months testing the products before selecting the best alternative – a wheel using Abrasive Technology’s P.B.S.® bonding process.

Results: 60% Cost Savings, Higher Quality

Through direct collaboration, Abrasive Technology engineers tailored a custom solution to meet our meat cutting client’s cost and quality needs. Sharpening costs have been reduced 60%, and the blades are sharper.
