Cut-off Wheels

Cutting is the first step in your sample preparation, if you need a manageable size of the sample material that you are going to examine. The aim of cutting is to obtain a surface that is plane, with a minimum of mechanical deformation and thermal damage. When you select the correct cut-off wheel for your material, you can reduce time and cost for subsequent grinding and polishing steps. Our Aka-Cut cut-off wheels are optimized for different materials to obtain the best and most uniform cutting result every time.

Our wide range of cut-off wheels include both abrasive cut-off wheels and precision cut-off wheels. This means that we have cut-off wheels that will provide a perfect cutting result for close to all materials, materials of different hardness and different cutting needs. All cut-off wheels have a long lifetime and can cut your sample material efficiently without introducing excessive damage to the sample surface.

Diamond Cut-Off Wheels for Precision Cutting

For high precision cutting tasks, our diamond cut-off wheels are the superior choice. Engineered to handle challenging materials, these superabrasive wheels are perfect for cutting metals with precision. Our diamond cut-off wheels for metal, such as Aka-Cut 50 HV, Aka-Cut 2000 HV and Aka-Cut 3000 HV, deliver exceptional cutting performance with minimal mechanical deformation and thermal damage. These wheels are particularly effective for materials that are difficult to cut with traditional abrasives, providing clean, accurate cuts that can help reduce the subsequent grinding and polishing time.

For a broader range of materials, including hard steels and surface hardened metals, the Aka-Cut 650 HV is an excellent choice, optimized for cutting steel with a hardness around 650 HV. The Aka-Cut 500 HV is ideal for medium-hard ferrous metals and hardened samples with a hardness of approximately 500 HV, providing reliable and precise cuts. Meanwhile, the Aka-Cut 350 HV is perfect for softer ferrous metals with hardness levels around 350 HV. These reinforced wheels provide enhanced durability, reducing breakage risks and offering high-precision cuts with minimal thermal damage.

By using diamond cut-off wheels, you can achieve consistent, high-quality results for all your metal cutting needs. This is an optimal first step in your sample preparation that is important for getting following sample preparation done efficiently and obtaining a superior surface finish.

Cutting of Metals

Abrasive cutting wheels are used for cutting metals with a hardness of 50-1000 HV. Our cut-off wheels provide a low cost per cut because they are long-lasting and cut fast. They are optimized to provide a plane cut with minimal thermal damage and maximum reproducibility. When cutting steel and/or other hard metals, the cut-off wheels Aka-Cut Fe60 or Aka-Cut Fe50 are the perfect choice. Aka-Cut 650 HV is designed for harder steel with a hardness of around 650 HV, offering superior cutting precision and durability. Aka-Cut 500 HV is optimized for ferrous metals with a hardness of approximately 250-500 HV, including surface hardened steels, to limit pinching and breakage of the cut-off wheel. Aka-Cut 350 HV, ideal for softer ferrous metals with a hardness of around 350 HV, ensures clean cuts with less deformation. Aka-Cut Ti20 is ideal for titanium and titanium alloys, preventing overheating and smearing. Aka-Cut NF10 is the perfect choice for non-ferrous metals like aluminum, copper, and their alloys.

Precision cut-off wheels Aka-Cut 1000 HV, Aka-Cut 700 HV and Aka-Cut 400 HV are the optimal choices for high precision cutting because they are very thin, yet durable. Our precision cut-off wheels are available in 150 mm dia.

For some materials it is the optimal choice to use a diamond or CBN cut-off wheel. Our superabrasive cut-off wheels are for high precision cutting of more challenging materials. These cut-off wheels are available in 152 mm dia.
