Polishing pastes, or liquid abrasive compounds, have a very wide field of application, and are used in various technical and industrial sectors: aeronautics, automobiles, jewelry, watches, household items, furniture, sanitary ...
Currently, one of the materials that stands out the most from the rest is the solid surface, which provides a total solution to carry out unique, innovative interior design designs with risky shapes. The surface finish then becomes a decisive element for companies.
The EKAMANT company is a Swedish manufacturer of flexible abrasives, with more than 90 years of experience. It is a prestigious company, recognized for its high quality in the manufacture of antistatic abrasives, on paper support, for the wood and varnishing industries; as well as for its great experience in the world market.
The new applications in today's surface coatings, the combination of different materials and the variety of surprising finishes made have a meeting point: “the need to carry out a precise, technical and demanding sanding that allows us to achieve the perfection of the surfaces ". Discover below the 5 advantages that a qualified abrasives manufacturer-transformer can offer you:
A good sanding and optimal surface preparation are not enough to achieve a good finish on a varnished piece, but we avoid dust particles are present during the painting process. For this reason, we must ensure that the air in the painting booths is properly filtered and avoids additional costs, time and money, as a consequence of having to reprocess the defective painted parts.
Three-dimensional abrasives are generally those that are made on a fiber backing, like a skein of nylon threads that are not woven together. They are commonly known as scotch or non-woven fiber, and stand out for their great damping capacity during sanding operations.
Sanding brushes, with interchangeable strip system, are commonly used for sanding wooden surfaces, varnished surfaces, fiberboards, plastic parts, composites and metal sheets.
When we refer to stainless steel we are faced with a material with innumerable uses and applications in the industrial, commercial and domestic fields
Sanding brushes, with interchangeable abrasive strips, are increasingly used for sanding all types of raw wood surfaces, varnished wood, metal or composite materials.
In this article, we introduce you to the main critical points in the manufacture of sanding belts, which can lead to low quality of the abrasive belt, and especially in the area of the joint or joint.
Ceramic grain is a new type of synthetic abrasive mineral. It is the most technologically advanced today, and it is widely used in the main processes related to the abrasive treatment of surfaces at the level of roughing and sanding extremely hard materials.
Stearate is a chemical ingredient, in the form of a white powder, that is used as a dry lubricant. This zinc or calcium powder is applied, diluted in water as a soapy liquid, on some abrasive papers, thus providing a special coating layer with non-stick effects.
Abrasive wheels were once a true revolution in sanding curved or shaped parts and profiles, replacing hand sanding operations with sanding machines equipped with wheels.
Today, these surface preparation works have given way to a transformation of substrates into new products that remind us of natural materials, outdoor spaces and nature, allowing a connection between the human being and his environment.
One of the main choices, which can determine our sanding work, is that of pneumatic or electric orbital sanders.
In this article we are going to focus on those manual applications that are carried out by using portable rotorbital machines; and in particular to learn more about flexible abrasive discs and the importance of their supports.
Plane sanders, also called contact sanders or belt sanders, are sanding machines for industrial use. They are used for sanding flat surfaces for their subsequent treatment and finishing.
The process of sanding by hand is simple and does not require great technique. It should be remembered that with sanding we get the following benefits...
Abracom invests in improvements to the abrasive belt manufacturing plant, with the addition of Biko Meccanica's Skiving Machine.
The main advantage of this machine is great flexibility and a high working speed to be able to face all kinds of orders, with a great variation in formats and sizes.
When we go to buy a belt sander, we look for information on specialized websites, on buying guides, opinion pages and comparative tables between models and brands.
Surface conditioning abrasives have been developed to offer the highest quality in terms of performance, cutting capacity and surface polishing.
Knowing which abrasive mineral we should use for each material during sanding work is important not only to avoid damaging the surfaces, but also so that the sanding operation is more efficient, effective and as a consequence takes up the shortest possible time; which is appreciated since sanding is a monotonous task, which takes time and generates discomfort and pain in the hands on many occasions.
Particleboards or chipboards, and fibreboards or MDF, are products derived from wood that in recent years have experienced great growth throughout the world.
Abracom is a company specialized in the manufacture and marketing of abrasives for industry and professionals. We address the different sectors: metal, wood and varnish, construction and contract, footwear and tanning, composites, glass and stone.
Increasing investment in research and development in the multi-purpose materials industry provides constant innovation within the industry. One of the most important in recent years, due to its performance, is a solid surface, an ideal material to carry out both interior and exterior design of great design and originality.
The operation of an abrasive belt is based on the continuous rotation of its surface on two rollers, in order to level surfaces by removing large amounts of material. With this, we will obtain excellent results on a large number of surfaces and in a short time.
The sanding belts used in plane sanders, in the woodworking and varnishing industries, are subjected to constant manipulation; from the initial moment they are removed from their protective packaging, through successive placement and removal in the sanding groups, to their temporary storage for later use.
Like all work tools, abrasive belts used incorrectly can be very dangerous. To avoid situations of risk and personal injury, it is advisable to take into account the advice shown below.
