Resumo

The future of polishing tools is rapidly changing through the use of composite materials made out of metallic or, more recently, polymeric binders and diamond particles that act as the abrasive (cutting) agents. This has led to the development of highly abrasive tools. Besides the more direct advantages of using these tools, such as higher lifetime and higher productivity, they are also more environmental friendly. Moreover, it is easy to demonstrate that compared to the conventional abrasives, metallic and resin bonded diamond tools for polishing are far more economical, even if their production cost is significantly higher. Nowadays, after an optimisation of the process, it is possible to perform the complete polishing almost exclusively with diamond tools, as shown is this work.
