Consequently, KADIA develops high-quality metal-bonded diamond and CBN abrasive stones that give perfect honing results. The extreme hardness of the superabrasive materials combined with our superior workmanship guarantee: Constant high precision due to good dimensional stability Unsurpassed dimensional, geometrical and surface accuracies Economical operation due to long tool life Outstanding self-sharpening effect Reliability even in heavy-duty multiple shift factory operation with a high level of automation Productivity due to the exceptionally high chip removal capacity The abrasive stones are available in a wide range of dimensions, shapes and variants optimally adapted to the workpiece materials and the machining tasks of our customers. We distinguish between three basic types: standard honing stones for fitting on stone carriers, honing stones with expanding profile ready for installation and special honing stones for specific honing applications. Special Honing stones Sintered rings or segments that are soldered e.g. to shell-type tools. Honing stones with central cutouts or partially inset grooves are also included in this type. They are ideal e.g. in bores with large interruptions and "problematic" stepped profiles and also in blind holes with extremely short overruns.
