Mevious grinding wheels for brake discs

For brake discs with an applied SUS surface, laser cladding is followed by a machining step that adapts the surface to the specific functional requirement.

EHWA describes the Mevious grinding wheel for machining such brake discs. The product page states a hybrid technology combining a metal and a ceramic bond.

Starting point: the coated brake disc

Laser cladding applies a metal layer to the brake disc surface. The official EHWA page names stainless steel, or SUS, as the coating material.

After application, the surface is not automatically suited to the required final finish. The subsequent grinding process must therefore consider the tool, the coating, and the target surface together.

Tool design and process belong together

The Mevious grinding wheel is classified on the EHWA page as a tool for brake discs with an SUS surface after laser cladding.

Machine, workholding, coolant, infeed, and dressing strategy also influence the process. Technical statements on surface or tool-life results are therefore always tied to the specific application.

Hybrid technology viewed objectively

EHWA describes the Mevious grinding wheel as a combination of a metal and a ceramic bond. This design targets the machining of the coated brake discs described above.

Which specification fits depends on the coating, the disc design, and the desired process goals. A reliable selection therefore requires technical coordination.

Important information for an inquiry

For the tool design, information on brake disc geometry, surface coating, existing machine concept, cooling, and the targeted machining result is helpful.

This allows the grinding wheel to be matched to the real task at hand, instead of transferring properties from a different brake disc or coating variant.
