Features
Innovative Metal Bond Structure—Engineered to balance sharpness, form stability, and wheel life, providing either lower cutting forces or higher profile retention depending on application needs.
Dual Abrasive Options (Diamond or CBN)—Diamond delivers unmatched efficiency on carbide, while CBN ensures precise results on HSS and other ferrous tool materials.
Straight Wheel Designs (1A1, 1V1)—Optimized geometries for CNC fluting and gashing operations, offering stability and access to complex tool profiles.
Cool Cutting Action—Minimizes thermal load on cutting tools, reducing risk of burning, edge chipping, or metallurgical damage.
Extended Wheel Life—Lower dressing frequency reduces downtime and consumable costs, improving overall productivity.
Description
The TYROLIT STARTEC XPP+ product line represents a breakthrough in precision grinding for round tool manufacturing. Engineered for both cubic boron nitride (CBN) and diamond abrasives, STARTEC XPP+ wheels are optimized for fluting and gashing operations on HSS and tungsten carbide cutting tools. The advanced bond system and carefully designed wheel structure deliver measurable advantages: reduced grinding forces for improved process stability, or enhanced profile retention for extended dressing intervals and superior dimensional accuracy. Whether grinding carbide or steel, manufacturers can rely on STARTEC XPP+ for high stock removal, cooler cutting action, and consistently sharp edge geometry, raising productivity without sacrificing surface quality or tool precision.
Application
Application
1
Fluting operations on solid carbide end mills for high precision cutting channels.
2
Gashing HSS and carbide drills to produce accurate point geometry and reliable chip evacuation.
3
Flute and relief grinding of reamers and step tools for demanding production environments.
Recommendations
Choose diamond for tungsten carbide and CBN for HSS to maximize grinding efficiency.
Use adequate coolant delivery directly at the grinding zone to control heat and improve tool finish.
Match bond hardness and grit size to the tool geometry and desired finish—coarse for heavy stock removal, fine for precision edges.
Dress wheels with proper tools and intervals to maintain sharpness and form integrity.
Operate within TYROLIT’s recommended speed and feed parameters for optimal results.
