Resin-bonded diamond dicing blade matrices



Matrix

 

General Usage and Characteristics
R-3

Strong bonding of abrasives and the latest derivative of the first computer designed R7-3 matrix exhibiting 20% to 30% longer blade life and improved cut quality. Designed for materials such as ceramics and crystalline materials where high throughput is desired.

RU-3

Weaker bonding of abrasives for where high cut quality is desired as in materials such as glass, sapphire, pyrex, lithium tantalate, lithium niobate, quartz, etc. where the cutting forces during dicing consistently exposes sharp new diamond edges in order to maintain quality of cut. This matrix is the latest derivative of the RU7-3.

RU-1

Same as the RU-3 bond except this matrix exhibits 1/3 of the diamond concentration. Best used where the highest quality of cut is desired and feed rates are not enough to guarantee the self-sharpening characteristics of the resin bonded blade due to light cutting forces on the individual diamond particles. This matrix is the latest derivative of the RU7-1.

RA-3

Strong bonding of abrasives used primarily for metals utilizing boron nitride rather than diamond abrasives. This matrix replaces the AMR7-3.

RU-3S1 Designed for materials such as LTCC type materials, some ferrites, and material applications that demand extremely high quality specifications.
