Grinding guide Diamonds

Background

The diamond segment comprises usually of two components:

• Diamonds (also called diamond crystals or corn). Changing the size of the diamonds or corn will change the coarseness or ﬁneness of the scratches after the grinding process.

• A bonding agent (metal or plastic). Powder is mixed and suspended in a metal or plastic bonding agent. If metal is used as a bonding agent, the ﬁnished product is called metal-bonded or sintered diamond segment. If plastic is used as a bonding agent, the ﬁnished product is called plastic-bonded diamonds or polishing disc. By changing the hardness of the bonding agent, you can change how quickly or slowly the diamond abrasive is worn down.

General Principles

General rules for using diamond tools when grinding follow below. As with all rules, there are exceptions or occasions when they do not apply.

Diamond grit size

Changing the size of the diamond grit to a smaller particle/ grit size will effect the performance of the diamond tool in the following ways:

• Create a ﬁner scratch pattern.

• Increased service life of diamond tools.

The opposite will occur when changing to a larger particle/grit size.

Binding agent

Increasing hardness of bond will:

• Create a ﬁner scratch pattern.

• Increased service life of diamond tools.

• Decrease production rate.

The opposite will occur when making the metal or resin bond softer.

Number of diamond tools under the machine

An increased number of tools under the machine leads to:

• Less pressure on each individual tool – less wear on the diamond tools.

• Reduce load on the machine and cause the grinder to draw less current.

• Create a smoother scratch pattern (particularly on soft ﬂoors).

The opposite will occur when decreasing the number of segments under the machine.

Summary of diamond principles

The diamond tools must be worn in order to give a high grinding efﬁciency. The wear on diamond tools can be affected by the following factors:

• Pressure.

• Hardness of bond.

• Diamond grit size.

• Number of segments under the machine.

• Adding an additional abrasive (e.g. sand, silicone carbide) on the ﬂoor will increase wear.

Generally, the faster a diamond tool is worn down, the better the grinding efﬁciency. Changing the factors above can also change the following results:

• Scratch pattern.

• Current draw of machine.

• Flatness of ﬂoor (see next section).

• Ease of operation.

OPERATING

Determining the hardness of concrete

All concretes are measured by their compressive strength and depending on which part of the world you are from, different compressive strength indices (e.g. PSi & MPa) are used. Generally, the higher the compressive strength rating, the harder the concrete and therefore, the harder it will be to grind.

But there are also factors other than compression strength that determine how hard a ﬂoor is and which therefore affect the choice of diamond tool. As it is most often only the top layer (5 mm) that we are talking about from a grinding point of view, the surface treatment of the concrete and the condition of the concrete surface have many times a greater impact on the choice of diamond segment than the compression strength.

Surface factors to consider when making a diamond selection

Generally, if a concrete surface is very smooth (i.e. Most likely it has been heavily trowelled/helicoptered), the concrete will behave as if it has a high compressive strength and therefore, require a soft bond segment.

Accordingly, if a concrete surface is coarse/aggressive (e.g. rain-damaged, shot blasted, scariﬁed, exposed aggregate e.t.c.), the concrete will behave as if it has a low compressive strength and therefore, require a hard bond segment.

Surface coatings/contaminants (e.g. Epoxy coatings, ceramic tile adhesives, levelling compounds/screeds) will often have a larger bearing on what diamond to select, than will the compressive strength of the concrete.

As a general rule, when grinding a concrete slab for the ﬁrst time and you are unsure about its hardness, always begin with harder bond diamonds under the machine. This will ensure the least amount of wear on the diamond segments. If a hard diamond segment is not suited to the application, all it has cost is a little amount of time without wearing out the diamonds.

If performed the other way around (i.e. a soft segment is used to begin with) and the concrete is soft or possesses an abrasive surface or surface contaminant, it is quite possible to wear-out a considerable amount of diamond in very short period of time.

Husqvarna’s recommendations for grinding before HiPERFLOOR

1 When grinding the ﬁrst stage, use single segments on

the tool plate.

2 Change to a softer bonding agent but still use single

segments on the tool plate.

3 Change to a tool with double segments on each plate,

same hardness or softer than step two. Apply water, GM3000 and follow the recommendations given by Husqvarna in their HiPERFLOOR process.

4 Change to the tool holder for plastic-bonded

diamonds and use Husqvarna’s recommended tools for the HiPERFLOOR process. Apply HiPERHARD and allow it to cure in accordance with Husqvarna recommendations.

MAINTENANCE

Faults and trouble shooting

The machine does not start

• Check the power supply and the power cables to make sure they are not damaged.

• Check that the emergency stop button is not pressed by turning it clockwise.

• Check the overload lamp. If the overload lamp is on, allow the motor to cool down for a few minutes until the machine is automatically reset.

Machine is hard to hold onto

• Too few diamonds under the machine or the wrong type of tool for the application (stiff adhesive or soft ﬂoor coverings result in high stress to the machine and the user if there are too few diamonds under the machine). Usually also accompanied by high current draw by motor.

Use the number of diamonds recommended by Husqvarna to reduce the stress on the grinder and the user.

Machine is jumping around

• Diamonds may not be ﬁtted correctly or have different heights. Check to ensure all diamonds are ﬁtted correctly and are the same height.

The machine stops after just a while

• The machine is overloaded and the overload protection has been released. Reduce load. The machine will reboot after about a minute when the engine has cooled off.

• Ensure any extension cables are not under dimensioned.

The machine stops during start-up

• The electric motor has overloaded and the overload lamp is on. Give the machine one or two minutes to reset and try again. When this does not help, contact an authorised service workshop.

• Ensure any extension cables are not under dimensioned.

NOTICE! Good motor performance depends on proper voltage. Extension cables that are too long and/or which have a gage that is too small, reduce power to the motor under load.

Maintenance

IMPORTANT! Inspection and/or maintenance should be carried out with the motor switched off and the plug disconnected.

Used correctly, the machine is an extremely lowmaintenance and reliable product.

Daily maintenance

• Cleaning
