  • Jewelry tool processing is a craft that requires skill and experience for beginners

    It is important to understand the use of equipment, the types and sequence of diamond tools, the problems that may arise during the polishing process, and how to solve these problems. Use of equipment When processing jewelry tools, it is necessary to first understand the use of equipment. Common equipment includes electric grinding heads, electric grinding discs, manual grinding heads, manual grinding discs, and grinding wheels. These devices are easy to operate, but safety should be taken into consideration to avoid accidents. Types and sequence of diamond tools Diamond tools are an indispensable part of jewelry tool processing. Different types and grades of diamond tools should be selected according to different processing needs. Common types of diamond tools include files, grinding heads, grinding discs, and grinding wheels. The grades are divided into coarse, medium, fine, and ultra-fine. Coarse grinding is suitable for preliminary trimming, medium grinding is suitable for fine processing, fine grinding is suitable for polishing, and ultra-fine grinding is suitable for high-gloss polishing. Problems that may arise during the polishing process During the polishing process, the following problems may occur: 1. Scratches: may be caused by using too coarse diamond tools or applying too much pressure during polishing. 2. Burrs: may be caused by using too fine diamond tools or applying uneven pressure during polishing. 3. Bubbles: may be caused by using inappropriate polishing agents or polishing for too long. How to solve problems The following solutions can be adopted for the above problems: 1. Scratches: select appropriate diamond tools and grades, control the applied pressure, and avoid excessive wear. 2. Burrs: select appropriate diamond tools and grades, apply even pressure, and maintain a stable polishing speed. 3. Bubbles: select appropriate polishing agents, control the polishing time, and avoid excessive polishing. Conclusion Beginners in jewelry tool processing need to understand the use of equipment, the types and sequence of diamond tools, the problems that may arise during the polishing process, and how to solve these problems. Only by mastering these basic knowledge can they better carry out jewelry tool processing and create more exquisite jewelry works.

  • 100Grit360Grit Sintred Diamond Grinding Wheel

    Home Sintered Diamond Proudct Sintered Diamond Grinding Wheel 100Grit 360Grit Sintred Diamond Grinding Wheel Sintered Diamond Wheels are high-quality wheels designed for use on vertical cabbing machines. These wheel s feature a metal-bonded and sintered diamond matrix that is 5mm deep, which exposes new cutting points as the wheels are used. This makes them ideal for lapidary work, including gem grinding and shaping .One of the benefits of sintered diamond wheels is that they can be dressed to expose additional crystals for a more aggressive cut. However, dressing is not always necessary if you follow a "side to side" pattern when grinding to ensure even wear. Additionally, these wheels are dynamically balanced at the factory to ensure concentricity for smooth and quiet grinding.When ordering sintered diamond tools , it is generally recommended to order one grit size larger as compared to plated or brazed parts. These wheels come with a 1" arbor and bushings to adapt to 1/2, 5/8, or 3/4 inch shafts . They are available in a variety of grits and sizes, including popular options like Lapidary Diamond Wheels , Diamond Pacific Galaxy Wheels , 8 inch Diamond Grinding Wheel , 4 inch Diamond Wheel , Diamond Pacific Genie Wheels , and Gem Grinding Wheel .Overall, Sintered Diamond Wheels are a professional-grade option for lapidary work , offering durability, precision, and versatility. Whether you are a professional or hobbyist, these wheels are a great investment for achieving high-quality results.

FAQ What is the company Diamond Tool? Diamond Tool is a full line contractor supply house. With a 20,000 square foot showroom, in-house repair department, large rental equipment fleet, knowledgeable inside and outside sales staff, and emphasis on safety service solutions, Diamond Tool brings something unique to contractors everyday. How do you electroplate diamond tools? In the diamond electroplating process, the tool body (negatively charged) is placed in a tank where the diamond grit (positive charge) is “tacked” to the exposed surface. Nickel is then electroplated to strengthen the hold of the diamond grit to the body. How are diamond coated tools made? Plated diamond tools: These tools are made by fixing the diamonds onto the tool's base via electroplating method or via CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) method. They can usually be made to good processing precision. Ceramic-bonded diamond tools: The tools' bonding material is usually glass and ceramic powder. What are the benefits of diamond tools? Tools that use diamonds have higher wear resistance, higher grinding efficiency, and a longer lifespan. Diamond saws and drills will help ensure a high-quality cut for concrete projects, and will reduce time and effort. Synthetic diamonds are a regular fixture in the construction industry. What are electroplated diamond tools? Electroplated diamond tools have a monolayer of abrasive coating on a metal substrate. The individual diamond grits are bonded through an electroplated nickel layer. They project well out of the bond so that very open, easy cutting tools with exceptionally large chip spaces are created. What kinds of processes require the use of diamond tools? 1. Geological Exploration and Mining. Diamond cutting tools are used in the oil/gas industry for drilling and mining bits. ... 2. Construction. ... 3. Stone Processing Applications. ... 4.
