Saint-Gobain Abrasives has introduced the Norton Winter Paradigm® Plus Diamond Grinding Wheels featuring a new premium grain technology complementing the established proprietary, patented brittle-metal bond, resulting in a significant upgrade in performance on carbide round tools for fluting and gashing applications, and periphery grinding on carbide and cermet inserts grinding.
The wheels are the next generation of the Paradigm wheels. New grain technology, together with a new advanced lightweight core, produces lower specific cutting energy with a 25 to 50 per cent higher material removal rate (MRR), and provides significantly improved wheel life when compared with current Paradigm wheels, according to the company.

The new resin-based core, available for round tool grinding, is over 75 per cent lighter and eliminates the risk of sparks while reducing chipping, breakage and chatter, for better finishing in round tool applications. The Paradigm bond, which combines the wear resistance of a metal bonded wheel with the ease of profiling in a vitrified bonded wheel, has up to 46 per cent porosity enabling improved coolant flow for cooler cutting and reduced part burning, allowing for truing and dressing.
