Mining & Geological Materials
Diamond tooling solutions for cutting, sectioning, grinding, drilling and polishing rocks, minerals, ores and geological specimens.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
HANS provides diamond and superabrasive tools for mining, geology, mineral analysis and geological sample preparation. Our solutions support precision cutting, coring, sectioning, grinding, shaping and polishing of rocks, minerals, ores, crystals and other hard geological materials for laboratory analysis, exploration, research and industrial processing.
KEY CHALLENGES
Geological materials vary significantly in hardness, mineral composition, structure and abrasiveness. Cutting and sample preparation can cause cracking, edge damage, excessive material loss and rapid tool wear. Reliable processing requires suitable diamond grit, tool geometry and cutting methods for each material and specimen size.
RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS
Recommended solutions include diamond wire loops for precision sectioning of hard and brittle specimens, thin diamond saw blades for geological sample cutting, diamond core drills for specimen extraction, diamond grinding wheels and discs for surface preparation, flexible diamond abrasives for contour finishing, and fine diamond abrasives for polishing and analytical sample preparation.
KEY BENEFITS
Controlled sectioning, reduced specimen loss, efficient processing of hard and abrasive geological materials, consistent sample surfaces and reliable diamond tool life. Multiple sizes, grit specifications and custom tooling configurations are available for geological laboratories, mining operations and material research.
