ess金属和轻质材料ential in many industry sectors, such as the car manufacturing and aerospace industries. These materials, as well as highly abrasive laminates and other materials in the woodworking industry, can only be machined economically by particularly high-performance, high precision tools. The rotary tools used for this type of machining are manufactured from carbide or PCD blanks, or are equipped with PCD cutting edges. Vollmer offers sharpening machines that are controlled accordingly by CNC technology for both tool types.
The sharpening process plays a key role in the production of drills, milling cutters and chippers made of PCD or carbide. The sharpening process determines the tool's level of precision and service life, as well as being the definitive mark of quality. It also sets the highest standards for the tool grinding machines used for their manufacture or machining.
VOLLMER erosion and grinding machines meet these high quality standards.
Efficient, high-precision machining is the key to the manufacture of PCD rotary tools.
VOLLMER has a unique portfolio of intelligent, powerful high-tech CNC-controlled erosion machines specifically for machining complex rotary tools – both for production and service.

When brittle, hard metal materials coalesce with relatively soft metals, primarily from the iron family (iron, cobalt, nickel); a material is created that is characterized by a high level of hardness as well as viscosity, known as carbide.
Its huge resistance to wear and capacity to withstand even massive physical loads make it a much sought-after material in many sectors: Including mechanical engineering, the automotive, steel or food industry.
Machining processes such as rotating, milling, drilling, engraving, sharpening and grinding are almost inconceivable without carbide. It is also used in non-cutting forming or for protection against wear. In the field of tool manufacturing, the hard metal is mainly used for indexable inserts, as solid carbide rods or in the form of precision tools like drills and milling cutters.

THE MAIN ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE
The accurate sharpening results achieved by VOLLMER machines when grinding tooth tops and tooth faces of circular saws is the result of a whole host of advantages:
Carbide-tipped band saw blades are finding more and more applications in the metal-cutting industry. They are mainly distinguished by their small dimensions in relation to the often oversized pieces that need to be cut down. The advantage of carbide-tipped bandsaw blades for cutting metal lies in the very narrow cutting channel and the small machining losses.
In carbide-tipped bandsaws, small carbide pieces are welded onto a special carrier material that is highly resistant to various forces and stresses, even at high cutting speeds. Through fine grinding, the teeth obtain their vertical geometries, which depends on the material to be cut. The effective use of bandsaws for cutting metal requires maximum precision in the tooth geometry. That's a fact – and we know it. That's why, at VOLLMER, we have tried-and-tested solutions that have been specially developed and constructed for these requirements: For grinding tooth tops, straight tooth faces and clearance surfaces on both sides.
And in the last 100 years, we have not just focused on machines, but also on the people who operate them. In order to make work as easy, safe and pleasant as possible, we abide by the VOLLMER operating concept: Intuitive and logical.
