Changing the diamond dressing roll
Diamond dressing rolls usually have a bore tolerance field H3. They should only be used on dressing roll mandrels with tolerance field h2 (for the common diameters 52 to 63mm, the…
Figure 4 allows for an initial assessment of the stability of the drilling process due to combined cooling lubrication. It illustrates the range of measured bore diameters for all produced bores (i = 1…300). Once…
When it comes to minimising the environmental impact of the manufacturing industry, one key factor is the use of sustainable raw materials in process media, such as lubricants. By using biogenic carbon, the…
Mr. Watzenböck, you are now the owner of two companies. One is GWD and the other is ATP. How did this come about and what connections are there between these two companies?
In addition to my work as sales…
From what idea did the decision of self-employment come?
Manfred Walz: Many years before, I had been employed at another tool manufacturer in Baden-Württemberg. At some point it was important to me to implement new…
At tranquil Lake Seddin, just outside the capital Berlin and in the immediate vicinity of the famous asparagus region of Beelitz, Prof. Dr. Heiner Vollstädt founded Vollstädt Diamant 30 years ago. The former start-up…
Rising production costs and a change in demand behavior require sustainability in metal cutting as well. As a leading manufacturer of precision tools, Walter has been addressing this issue intensively for a long time,…
Cubic crystalline boron nitride, CBN, exhibits high thermomechanical resistance and is a predestined grain material for the grinding of hardened steel materials. The grinding medium is increasingly used in…
