Technical Readiness Level :
Turbine blades and Nozzle Guide Vanes (NVGs) are two of the main components to be ground and finished after casting. After cutting, the next step is to remove the foundry gate.
Norton EclipseTM R990S 36+ belts are setting the new standard in grinding of foundry cast parts including gate removal and rough grinding of turbine rotor blades and NGVs.
Eclipse belts feature 100% RazorStarTM engineered shaped grains, which remove more material thanks to the unique patented geometry and greater proportion of grains positioned upright, primed to cut.
Key features :
- Higher cut rate: RazorStarTM, is a razor-sharp ceramic grain, which cuts faster and removes more material. Norton EclipseTM belts feature a higher proportion of grains oriented in the desired upright position – all primed for razor sharp cutting.
- Longer life: Unique patented geometry enables new razor-sharp edges to be exposed as the grain fractures. And with improved grain retention, belt-life is unparalleled.
- Cooler cut: The unique belt design helps to significantly reduce heat generation - maintaining cooler grinding, resulting in less thermal damage to the workpiece.
