Dressing
Our product range features stationary and rotating dressing tools. Stationary dressing tools are used in various designs for dressing conventional grinding discs. Here, ultra-hard cutting materials such as MCD (monocrystalline diamond), CVD diamond (CVD thick-film diamond) and natural diamond are used in different bonds.

Diamond dressing strips
- For dressing/conditioning synthetic resin and ceramic-bonded CBN and diamond grinding discs
- The dressing strip can be clamped to the magnetic table or vice
- Clamp the table lengthways and move it across the strip at a transverse feed rate of approx. 200 mm/min
- Dressing infeed depending on CBN/diamond grain size 0.002 mm - 0.010 mm
- Ample coolant supply increases the service life and protects the grinding disc
- Synthetic-resin-bonded grinding discs must still be conditioned with a sharpening stone after the dressing process (release of the abrasive grains)

Single grain dresser with natural diamonds
- Unprocessed, natural diamonds of different size and quality, hard-soldered into steel shank
- Diamond size from 0.1 - 2.5 carats and more
- Diamond quality is the collective term for the following factors: crack resistance, clarity, transparency, size of inclusions and number of "healthy" tips
- Quality classification: A/1/2/3 (5-6/3-4/2-3/1 healthy tips)

MCD / CVD diamond single-grain dresser
- MCD and CVD diamonds are supplied in the form of rods with a square or, if required, rectangular cross-section
- The purchasing conditions for natural diamonds on the world market and the requirements for dressing have recently led to a sharp increase in the demand for MCD and CVD diamonds

Triangle dresser with DIAPACT (PCD) or CVD diamond
- The triangular shape means that the dresser can be used several times without having to be replaced or reworked
DIAPACT (PCD) dresser
- Dresser with coarse-grained, polycrystalline diamond layer with cobalt binder
CVD diamond dresser
- Dresser with coarse diamond layer without binder

WEISS Dresser
Area of application
- Dressing of CBN and diamond grinding discs with bonds of synthetic resin and ceramic as well as all corundum and silicon carbide discs in the diameter range 10 mm - 400 mm
- Retrofitting to existing round, internal round, flat and tool grinding machines
Cooling
- As the hardest raw material, diamond is very sensitive to heat. Like all dressing tools, the WEISS DRESSER should only be used with a generous supply of cooling lubricant
- If this is not done, the service life of the diamond dressing disc is considerably reduced
Accessories
- Extensive range of accessories.
- Clamping devices for various machine types on request

Dressing rollers
Diamond dressing rollers are mainly used in series production. They are used when grinding components require maximum precision with regard to dimensions and profile.
We differentiate between 3 types of dressing rollers:
Shaping rollers:
The shaping roller is inserted into the grinding disc for path-controlled dressing for the desired profile.
Infiltrated tools:
This tool is a metal-bonded diamond dressing disc.
Profile roller:
Profile rollers are used in mass production, where the complete workpiece contour is incorporated.
