About Truing and Dressing
Wheel Size and Model Designation
Truing and dressing are very important to effectively use Diamond / CBN wheels so that they fully demonstrate their excellent performance. No matter how precisely the wheel is attached to the machine, runout occurs at the initial stage after installation. Also, the abrasive grain layer deteriorates in accuracy and sharpness decreases due to wear in the grinding process. To maintain good sharpness, truing and dressing with a method and condition suitable for the grinding wheel is required.

Immediately after installing the equipment, correcting circumferential runout is required. Crushing and falling off of abrasive grains reduce sharpness.
Eliminate irregularities on the abrasive surface, as well as runout, and create perfect circle (truing)
Retract bond and project the cutting edge (dressing)
Identification Method of Wheel Shape
The shape labelling method of the super abrasive wheel is specified by "Japan Industrial Standard JIS B 4141."

To mold when the grinding surface sways while the wheel is rotating or when the shape has collapsed. ■Problems When Truing is Not Performed ・Burn, tactile mark, poor shape, short life, deteriorate of surface roughness
To remove unnecessary bond and chips on the surface, letting abrasive grains project. ■Trouble if Dressing was Not Performed ・Burn, increase of machining resistance, deterioration of surface roughness, decrease of work efficiency
