These new products immediately proved
such advantages in terms of productivity,
quality of ground surfaces and wheel
life to rapidly substitute grinding wheels
made with conventional abrasives.
Leveraging its experience and
established relationship with grinding
machine manufacturers, Camfart further
developed its product range, mainly
in the eld of organic wheels. This was
followed by a family of grinding wheels,
based on a revolutionary sintering system
to optimally bond seeded gel abrasives.
The last born of the “E-bond” family is
E5. The main characteristics of E5 are
friability and toughness.
E5 is su ciently friable to allow self-
dressing of wheels, and very tough, so
as to hold Cubitron™ (3M) grain longer
than other bonds. The resulting reduced
heating and damage of steel during
the grinding operation provides an
answer to current market requirements
for a better quality of springs in terms
of geometry and consistency of
deformation under load.
Camfart tested E5 bond on a wide
variety of hardened steel springs: the
spark time decreases by 30 per cent and
the wheel life increases by 50 per cent,
dressing operations are minimised and
stock removal remains high. Because
of this an increasing number of spring
manufacturers across major European
countries are using E5 wheels in their
operations.
Established in 1951, Camfart produces
a wide variety of vitri ed and organic
wheels for the most important end
uses, like precision grinding, centre-type
and centreless grinding, disc and surface
grinding, foundry, spring end grinding
and others.
The products meet safety standards
established by oSa (Organisation for
the Safety of Abrasives) and quality
and environmental system are certi ed
according to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.

Candor was founded in 1946 and
specialises in processes and equipment
for the surface treatment and metal
nishing industry.
The company supplies both single and
multi-strand systems for ferrous and
non-ferrous materials and all plants are
tailor-made.
Candor has machinery in more than
25 countries, including machines for
plating on stainless and HC steel spring
wires, plating on low and high carbon
steel wires, plating on copper and copper
alloy wires with high-speed single wire
plating plants for electro plating nickel,
silver, zinc or tin on various copper wire
products. Typical plants are high speed
tinning plants, and nickel and silver
plating on special alloy wires as well
as 27 per cent nickel plating on special
alloy wires.
