  1. 5 practices that increase the life of single point diamond dressingtool The most commonly used dressing tool for truing the grinding wheels are the single point diamond dresser. They are made of natural raw diamonds mounted on holders using special bonding material. It removes the worn out abrasive grains from the grinding wheel. It also reconstructs the accurate geometric shape of the grinding wheel. By following the 5 good practices while using the diamond tool you can keep both the grinding wheel and the dressing tool working for long and produce good quality work. The diamond should never be forced– the flat diamond when forced against the grinding wheel will crush the grains. The diamond gets burned and damages the tool. Hence it is better to replace the diamond when it loses the sharpness. Flat diamond should never be used– They create extra dressing pressure, especially on thin grinding wheels. The extra pressure tends to break the wheel. The dressing should start from the thin edge moving towards the thick portion. Use the correct diamond tool– Choosing the right size tool for the wheel will enhance the life of the tool and keep the grinding wheel in peak condition for longer periods. Chisel diamond dresser is used to create concave or convex shape radii on the grinding wheel. The dressing should be done on warmed up grinding machines only– it is important that the spindle bearings of the grinding wheel are warmed up. The coolant must be set to be distributed equally all over the wheel before commencing the dressing. Failing to do this may upset the balancing of the grinding wheel. Position the tool as close as possible– This should be done to reduce the tapers formed due to wearing out of ways on the wheel head or the grinding table. Conclusion Diamond dressing tools are an excellent choice for truing grinding wheels. But care should be taken to choose the right size and use them properly. Glazing is also done with super abrasive diamond powder.
