Choosing the Correct Wheel

Choosing the correct wheel is vitally important for achieving maximum throughput and quality. (Color code in chart indicates compatibility of wheel/axle combination).

In conjunction with proper wheel choice for each product, optimal TLC Phoenix parameter settings (speed, pressure, penetration, etc.) must be established for every new product that is to be cut. Other variables include substrate type, thickness, hardness, thermal coefficients, etc, and whether or not the substrate has thin film or other coatings. Therefore, it first becomes necessary to determine the most effective geometric specs of a wheel for each substrate and product.

Outside diameter, inside diameter, surface finish and hone angle of wheel must be determined through test and analysis. Once the optimum wheel choice is determined for each product, repeatable cutting results can be expected to remain constant. However, as each substrate can vary from batch to batch in draw or float processing, it is wise to test run each new substrate for each run.
