Primary Steel
Today over 1.6 million tonnes of crude steel is produced globally and according to the World Steel Association, the impact of future urbanisation, with 1 billion people moving to towns and cities between now and 2030 will create substantial demand for infrastructure developments. Norton provides value adding solutions for all cutting-off and grinding applications in steel production.
Whether cutting-off, roll, centreless or high pressure grinding of bars, sheets, rolls, slabs, billets or blooms to the highest quality, Norton offers a complete abrasive solution of grinding wheels, large diameter cut-off (LDCO) wheels, and abrasive belts.
Foundry
Norton abrasives breaks the mold when it comes to cutting and grinding in the foundry industry, from high stock removal to low surface finishing on steel alloys, stainless steel, manganese steel and iron castings for the energy, aerospace oil & gas, hydro, marine construction and general engineering industries. We develop abrasives for optimising cutting, grinding, stock removal and finishing applications that reduce process time, finish more parts per abrasive and as a result reduce overall process cost.
Norton offers cut-off and grinding wheels, LDCO wheels, abrasive belts, mounted points and carbide burrs for manual and robotic cutting, grinding, degating, deburring and machining operations, to achieve the desired dimensional accuracy, shape and surface finish. Norton abrasives are aggressive enough to remove large amounts of stock fast, whilst controlling the amount removed to achieve the required finish. Our products for finishing and fine finishing eliminate final defects to ensure castings and molds are perfect quality before handing over to your customers.
