Improved Surface Conditioning Usability

Tyrolit were recently approached by a customer to provide a solution on an existing process where the customer suffers from two crucial issues – supply problems from their current supplier and poor lifetime of the product due to belt joints failing.

Using Tyrolit product Bibielle X-Flex, our Aerospace Machining customer ran back to back tests against their current product, in order to try to resolve quality issues they had been experiencing. The outcome – no breakage over the useable lifetime of the belts and in addition, in comparison to the incumbent supplier, by using Bibielle X-Flex, the process achieved a 100% increase in the number of parts produced. Not only is this a hugely beneficial result but it has also saved time, ultimately proving more cost effective.
