Custom Tailored Powders

Custom Tailored Superabrasive Powder Solutions

Advanced Abrasives Corporation consults directly with you to design and manufacture custom-tailored superabrasive powder solutions to meet your exact application requirements.

As an independently owned and operated micronizer of superabrasive powder products, our unique advantage is that we control the crystal type, crystal shape, crystal cleanliness, and size distribution from start to finish. We have designed and developed unique milling technologies that allow us to tailor shape a product to a customer’s specific needs regarding bond retention and/or cutting, polishing, or grinding properties. We have developed proprietary methods of applying nano-size diamond crystallites to micron-size diamond particles for special applications. The cleaning process employed is superior to those used for many superabrasive products from other suppliers, ensuring the best possible cleanliness of diamond powder from Advanced Abrasives Corporation.

Every carat is put through a stringent cleaning process developed around our customers’ requirements. High surface purity is a must for many of our customers’ high-end value products because of the enhanced bond characteristics it produces. We can develop and supply coated, compounded, or stratified blends unique to your application needs. With competitive pricing and millions of carats in stock, Advanced Abrasives is an excellent choice to partner with your company. No order is too large or too small, and private labeling is always an option.

Let us work with your Applications Engineers or R&D Department to develop next-generation products that will help put your products ahead of the competition. Call us with your request, and we will tailor a product and process that is custom-made for your application.

Our Nano Diamond Coated Micron Powder line provides a product that greatly enhances the subsequent polycrystalline network by increasing diamond-to-diamond bonding during the pressing/sintering process. The proprietary coating process deposits a uniform layer of nanometer-sized diamonds on each individual particle of the primary diamond product. Our micron line of diamond powders can be uniformly coated with nanodiamonds in sizes ranging from 100 nm all the way down to 25 nm. The nanometer-sized diamond is made from the parent crystal of the base material so can retain the original high-level purity. Our process coats only the particle, thereby reducing the amount of free nanometer diamond that could potentially result in a non-homogeneous blend of diamond/catalyst. New coatings, such as high-purity nano-size catalyst coatings, are being developed on a continuous basis, and we would be pleased to discuss developing a coating specific to your application needs.

Custom Tailored Superabrasives for Grinding Wheels

We specialize in crafting superabrasive powders that revolutionize grinding wheel performance. Our expertise lies in developing custom solutions for the most demanding applications. This includes cubic boron nitride (CBN) and diamond crystals that outperform conventional abrasives by leaps and bounds. These aren’t your run-of-the-mill grinding materials; they are engineered to tackle the toughest jobs with precision and efficiency. When you’re grinding hardened steels or working with materials that push the limits of conventional abrasives, our superabrasives step up to the plate.

We provide solutions that boost your productivity and cut costs. By fine-tuning the particle size, shape, and composition of our CBN powders, we create grinding wheels that cut faster, last longer, and maintain their shape better than anything else on the market. It’s not just about grinding – it’s about grinding smarter.

Prioritize Thermal Stability and Thermal Conductivity With Custom Superabrasives

Heat is the biggest negative factor for efficient grinding. Our custom superabrasives are designed with thermal stability and conductivity at the forefront, which is the key to unlocking peak performance in high-temperature applications. When you’re pushing the limits of what’s possible in grinding, heat buildup can be your worst enemy. Our CBN powders shine as we engineer these powerhouses to withstand extreme temperatures. They conduct heat away from the grinding zone, which means you can push your grinding processes harder and faster without worrying about thermal damage to your workpiece. Advanced Abrasives is providing a custom solution to one of the biggest challenges in precision grinding, optimizing thermal properties, and opening doors to applications that were once thought impossible.

Add a Copper or Nickel Coating to Your Superabrasive Solutions

Take your superabrasives to the next level with our coating options. We offer copper and nickel coatings that transform good superabrasives into great ones. Why bother with coatings? It’s simple: they enhance retention, improve heat dissipation, and can even boost the cutting action of your CBN powders and diamond crystals. A layer of copper or nickel acts like a high-tech glue, keeping your superabrasives firmly in place during the most demanding grinding operations.

These coatings are leaders in thermal conductivity. They whisk heat away from the grinding zone, reducing the risk of thermal damage and allowing for more aggressive grinding parameters. And best of all, by tweaking the coating thickness and composition, we can fine-tune the cutting characteristics of your superabrasives. Want a more aggressive cut for roughing operations? Need a smoother finish for those final passes? No problem. We add another dimension of control to your grinding process.
