Working with abrasive discs: quality, knowledge, technique and research are the basis of Globe productions.
Nowadays, abrasive wheels are the fastest and the most versatile tool that technology can offer for cutting and processing various materials. With abrasive cutting discs, you can cut metal profiles, any type of sheets, railway sleepers, reinforced concrete joists, stones, marbles, granites, refractory materials, pipes, melting of various alloys, foundry feeder-heads, steel test pieces, etc…
Continuous researches and improvements brought to widen the range of discs more and more selectively to enhance their performances for different works to carry out and for different materials.
An example is the development of thin cutting wheels (thickness between 1,0 mm and 1,6 mm) which, thanks to their high penetration speed and to the cooling power of some additives and fillers, allow to carry out cold cuts avoiding the hardening of materials for self-quenching (common phenomenon when using cutting discs thicker than 2,5/3,2 mm) as well as to reduce the formation of burrs on the section cut.
The development of new products and solutions are one of the most important aspects of GLOBE work.
Just to mention some of them…
• the patented boxing system of wheels, unique in the world (cylindrical plastic or plastic coated cardboard boxes), which preser-
ves and protects in the best way the wheel from ageing factors and degradation;
• the several new products put on the market by GLOBE, tools able to provide innovativing solutions and better performances such as for example:
– Ceramic Power
– Top-One
– XCellence-One
– Safecut III
– Heavy Cut
– Grind Power III
– Railcut (Long Life and Fast Cut)
– Combi Extra e Combi Speed
– Flexcellence
– New TurboTwister
XCellence-ONE:
ultra-thin cutting disc with very long durability.
The depressed center “narrow dome” allows a bigger cutting penetration and a high number of cuts.
Flexcellence:
self-supporting fiberdisc.
High removal capacity and long durability. Offers a big comfort of use and an excellent working precision.
The ingredients of the wheel.
Abrasive wheels are made of 3 main elements (in addition to the label and to the metal washer):
- cutting active element: abrasive grains;
- binding element: resins, that polymere in special polymerization ovens, bind and hold together manufactured products;
- strengthening elements: fiberglass reinforcements used to increase products’ resistance and to reach high rotation speeds in
full safety.
