Based on its
long experience
in the
processing of
industrial
diamond,
Awin Diamond has
developed
dedicated and
proprietary
methods for
micronising. The
use of these
methods, coupled
with strict
quality control
procedures,
guarantees that
all
Micron+
products conform
to or exceed
industry
standards.
Technical
quantitative
results are
available to
customers on
request.
Size
Distribution is
an important
aspect of micron
products.
Awin Diamond
imposes controls
on the size
distribution and
the single
maximum particle
size present in
each batch.
Material is
analysed using
optical and
scanning
electron
microscopy and
also laser
diffraction.
Awin Diamond
chooses the
longest single
dimension method
for optical
sizing, oversize
particles etc.
This allows for
the
determination of
average mean
particle size
and maximum
particle size.
Variations in
average mean
particle size
can lead to
different
cutting
characteristics,
and the presence
of oversized
particles can
cause unwanted
scratches to the
surface of the
workpiece,
particularly in
ultra-high
precision areas
such as lens
grinding.
