High-performance bonding systems VITRA and VICON

For higher performance and processes critical to grinding burns, we recommend the use of our innovative bonding system VITRA for CERFINE dies and VICON for CERBON and CERDIA tools..

Benefits

Thanks to higher specific strength, significant reduction of bond content without loss of tool life
Optimized pore structure for increased absorption of coolant and improved chip evacuation
Thus significantly lower temperature load, shorter grinding times and higher metal removal rates

Performance Classes

For maximum efficiency, the process must fit the requirements precisely. This is why the capacity of the grinding tool must be selected to match the desired end result. Hermes therefore offers standard specifications for specific applications with different performance classes, available from stock.
