Horizontal blades can be used to cut granite in its raw form into desired sizes or pieces. Horizontal blades are also an essential part of the finishing process. Horizontal blades can be found in grinding and polishing machines and equipment, which play a major role in establishing the final dimensions and surface characteristics for many industrial parts. Horizontal blades can also be used to trim ceramic, metals and alloys, glass, composite materials and some soft materials. Depending on the surface that is to be cut, either a lubricant or a water medium is applied to its surface, and is combined with very small abrasive pieces. The small abrasive pieces are applied, continuously or at specific times to a work surface to form an abrasive film between the blades plate and the parts being cut, polished, drilled or grinded. Abrasive grains can be used for ceramic cutting, ceramic polishing and ceramic squaring. Abrasive grains can also be used for composite material cutting and calibrating. Abrasive grains are sharp and irregular shape, and when a relative motion is induced and pressure is applied, the sharp edges of the grains are forced into the work piece materials because of the granite diamond segmented blades are composed of diamond bits which help complete the finishing process of the work. Putting pressure to the diamond segmented blades to the parts being cut create loose abrasive particles and acts as a microscopic cutting tool that either makes an indentation or causes the material to cut away very small particles. A large amount of tiny abrasive grains, which come in different sizes and shapes, are combined to form the substance, which assists in cutting a particular surface. Today the use of horizontal diamond blades and diamond discs has been further developed. Diamond bits are now affixed inside the matrix so that every diamond bit participates in the cutting action, producing a three-body abrasion process instead of a two-body abrasion process. This redefines the standard in cutting and drilling. This type of machining is also sometimes called three-body lapping. The horizontal blade’s open bond design ensures that the blade incurs minimal chipping, faster cutting action, minimal cutting noise and minimal loss of material.
