Grinding disc set-up
They way diamond segments are set-up on the grinding heads of the machine will also greatly influence the performance of the machine, the productivity levels and also the finished floor quality.
By changing the way the diamonds are set-up on the diamond holder discs, an operator can signifi cantly effect the performance of the machine and therefore, the finished product.
HALF-SET OF DIAMONDS (3PCS of Trapazoid diamond tools)
When the diamonds are set-up as a half-set, they tend to follow the surface of the floor. Similar to a tripod for a camera, which can be placed on an uneven surface and yet still find a stable footing.
The half-set diamond configuration should only be used when a flat floor finish is not required.
FULL-SET OF DIAMONDS (6PCS of Trapazoid diamond tools)
When the diamonds are set-up as a full-set, they tend not to follow the surface of the floor. If the floor has undulations, the machine will grind the high areas yet miss
the low spots (unless the high areas are ground down first).
The full-set diamond configuration should be used when a flat floor finish is desired.
