TOYO’s Cutting Wheels
1. ELECTRIC DISCHARGE-GROUND EDGE:
Toyo Cutting Wheel Chip is produced by Electric Discharge Grinding
System.
What is Electric Discharge Grinding ?
Anode or cathode is heated by Impact Energy of Positive Ion, and wheel
shape is finished precisely by Evaporation or Melting Phenomenon which
created by High temperature from Anode or Cathode, and not by Grinding
Powder. Thanks to Electric Discharge Grinding, edge surface is very
sharpen. Roughness of cutting edge can be set according to the power of
Electrode.
CUTTING EDGE CHARACTERISTICS WITH ELECTRONIC
DISCHARGE GRINDING SYSTEM:
① Thanks to computer controlled ground wheel, no lifetime irregularity
is happened.
② Thanks to the minimum R-shaped cutting edge, the wheel gives a
superior score into the glass, and you can scribe the glass with
low pressure, thus the clean scribe line can be realized.
③ In order to achieve the best scoring, we can produce the wheel
which suitable to any type of glass (soda-lime glass, Non-alkaline
glass, chemical/heat toughening glass, etc) or any type of hardness
of glass, or any type of glass thickness.
2.1 MATERIAL OF WHEEL
There are 2 types of wheels, one is super hard wheel and another
another one is Diamond Compact Wheel, and scribing ability, life
& price are different according to the type of wheel.

3.1 CHARACTERISTICS OF TAP WHEEL (CONCEPT OF DEVELOPMENT)
Thanks to the special shape inside, the wheel itself produces slight vibration
while rolling. Rolling defect might suddenly be happened in the conventional
wheel while scribing due to the glass chip in the gap between wheel’s inside
and axle or due to friction. Even if you observe the scribe line, breaking
defect is happened because no vertical crack is formed, and no one can
expect the timing of rolling defect. Rolling defect effects the production
yield. The rolling defect might be happened from the beginning, and
you might suspect that “this is a defective wheel” although this is the normal
and no wheel edge is consumed.
To prevent such a critical problem, TOYO developed Tap wheel (vibration
wheel). The special shape inside is to reduce the rolling friction due to
glass chip between the wheel’s inside and axle due to glass chip. Reduction
of rolling defect corresponds to the longer life. Also thanks to self-vibration,
it provides deeper median crack into the glass, you can realize square break
for any glass in any thickness. LEAVING SMOOTH and FINE EDGE !
