Saint-Gobain Abrasives, announced that at Motion + Power Technology Expo Booth #505, located at Huntington Place Convention Center, Detroit, Michigan from October 21 to 23, 2025, it will be highlighting a range of high performance, innovative production grinding wheels and technology. Norton Quantum Prime Grinding Wheels, which feature proprietary nano-crystalline ceramic grain offering productivity gains across a wide range of applications, will be featured. The Quantum Prime grain delivers high grinding efficiency and part quality, as well as significantly longer wheel life than traditional ceramic grains.

Also, attendees can see high performance Norton IDeal-Prime Internal Diameter Grinding Wheels for precision applications featuring Quantum Prime nano-crystalline ceramic grain. The combination of the micro-fracture properties of the ceramic grain and the retention capability of the advanced bond ensures long wheel life, excellent grinding efficiency, and consistent part quality with superior surface finishes which results in cost savings of 30% and more.

Additional key Norton grinding technologies at Motion + Power Technology Expo include:

  • A range of gear grinding solutions including new VS3PN bond technology designed for high performance gear grinding in extreme, tight tolerance environments will be featured. The portfolio of gear grinding products is specifically designed by category to provide higher profile accuracy, form holding, and burn-free grinding in worm, profile, and bevel applications.
  • For the high performance external grinding of cam and crankshafts and internal grinding applications in automotive and bearing industries, Vitron7 cBN grinding wheels have a high-precision vitrified bond.
  • Norton Finium abrasive microfinishing film rolls for precision applications are designed with a patented topside resin system alongside two backing types and an innovative grit size color coding. This combination is specifically engineered to deliver high material removal and surface finish uniformity.
  • Norton Stellar inserted-nut grinding wheels for double and single disc grinding offer improved wheel life, increased parts per wheel and lower cost per part.
