Abstract
An abrasive tool includes a support, on which a plurality of abrasive flaps is arranged. The abrasive flaps each have a base and abrasive material, which is attached to the base by means of a binder. To increase the useful life and total material abrasion, the abrasive flaps are reinforced by a cured filling resin. The reinforcement of the abrasive flaps reduces the cyclical deflection thereof around a zero position due to workpiece machining, thereby avoiding increased wear on the abrasive flaps.
Claims10
An abrasive tool having
- a support,
- a plurality of abrasive flaps,
- which are arranged on the support, and
- which each have a base and abrasive material, wherein the abrasive material is attached to the base by a binder, wherein at least one of the abrasive flaps has a cured filling resin for reinforcement and for reduction of cyclical deflection, and the respective base comprises at least one thread, which is soddened with the filling resin.
A method for producing an abrasive tool, comprising the following steps:
- providing a plurality of abrasive flaps, which each have a base and abrasive material, wherein the abrasive material is attached to the base by means of a binder, wherein each base comprises at least one thread,
- arranging and securing the abrasive flaps on a support,
- providing at least one of the abrasive flaps with a filling resin,
- soddening the at least one thread of the respective base with the filling resin, wherein the at least one abrasive flap is provided with the filling resin after the abrasive flaps have been arranged on the support, and
- curing the filling resin to reinforce the at least one abrasive flap and to reduce cyclical deflection.
