Flexible Tools with Diamond Blades for Polishing Granite Surfaces

Polishing is an operation of treating the surface of the stone that gives it final useful features, giving the surface shine, which in the final stage of stone surface treatment give it important usable features, which include: aesthetics, i.e. surface property of the stone, characterized by the glassiness of the surface in some case has a mirror effect, which is characterized by a high degree of reflection of light, allowing it to observe the structure of the stone well in the aspect of its decorative elements placed on its surface. The physical features of polished surfaces are, above all, a shorter time to maintain moisture on its surface, which is the basic factor of material destruction. The quality of the polished surface of natural stone determines the degree of its longevity, this principle is particularly important for polished marble and concrete surfaces. An important value of the quality of polished products is the assessment of this parameter in a commercial assessment. The property of achieving a high degree of polishing can only be achieved with the help of highly effective diamond tools for polishing operations, where the quality of their work is evaluated by instrumental methods using tools measuring the amount of reflected light from the polished surface (gloss meter). Flexible diamond tools for dry and wet polishing operations are a set of 8 discs with a diameter of 100 mm mounted on a fast link formed in the friction surface on a synthetic binder of diamond abrasive with a grain size of 50 ÷ 3000 #. In order to increase the efficiency of surface treatment technology in polishing operations, it is necessary for granite processing for a given polishing operation with grain size 800 #, to select the appropriate hardness resulting from the synthetic binder formulation.
