METHOD FOR THERMAL PROCESSING OF SEMI-FINISHED ABRASIVE TOOLS ON ORGANIC THERMOSETTING BINDING AGENTS Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC C30B33/02 B24D18/00 

FIELD: technological processes, metal working.

SUBSTANCE: invention is related to the field of abrasive processing and may be used in production of abrasive tools for polishing of blanks from different metals and alloys. Full cycle of thermal processing of semi-finished abrasive tools on organic thermosetting binding agents includes stages of preliminary heating and hardening in microwave field of SHF- chamber with frequency of 2450 MHz for abrasive tool with thickness of up to 100 mm and with frequency of 890 - 915 MHz for abrasive tool with thickness of more than 100 mm. Prior to SHF-thermal processing semi-finished abrasive tools are placed into radio transparent steam-and-gas permeable container-thermostat. After temperature of thermosetting binding agent complete polymerization has been achieved, and after pause at this temperature, thermostat is withdrawn from SHF-chamber, and semi-finished abrasive tools are kept in thermostat until their temperature drops at least by 80°C. After that thermostat is opened, semi-finished products are cooled in open air and then withdrawn from thermostat.

EFFECT: reduction of process cycle of SHF-thermal processing of semi-finished products.
