SAINT-GOBAIN ABRASIVES will exhibit a range of advanced abrasive grinding technologies and high-performance solutions at the IMTS 2026, in the North building at booth 237042.

Among the technologies highlighted will be Norton gear grinding wheels featuring advanced VS3PN bond technology, engineered to deliver exceptional profile retention, burn-free grinding, and improved part quality in demanding gear manufacturing applications. Designed for high-efficiency gear grinding environments, the wheels provide superior form holding and consistent performance in worm, profile and bevel gear grinding operations where tight tolerances and productivity are critical.

Norton also will feature Paradigm^® Diamond Wheels for aerospace grinding applications. Designed specifically for grinding difficult-to-machine aerospace materials, the wheels combine advanced abrasive grain technology with a highly engineered bond system to deliver improved material removal rates, longer wheel life and excellent part quality. The technology is ideal for turbine blades, aerospace engine components and other hard-to-grind materials commonly used throughout the aerospace industry.

Also on display will be Norton Paradigm^® Plus Diamond Wheels for round tool grinding. Featuring premium grain technology combined with a brittle metal bond system, Paradigm Plus wheels provide high grinding efficiency, reduced grinding forces and significantly improved wheel life for carbide round tool manufacturing applications. The wheels are designed to help manufacturers achieve higher material removal rates and greater process consistency while maintaining precise tool geometries and surface finishes.

For high-performance external and internal grinding applications, Norton Vitron7™ vitrified cBN grinding wheels will also be showcased. Featuring a high-precision vitrified bond system, Vitron7 wheels deliver long performance, thermal stability, and consistent grinding performance in demanding automotive, bearing, and precision grinding operations. The technology is particularly well-suited for applications involving camshafts, crankshafts, and other hardened steel components requiring high levels of dimensional accuracy and productivity.

In addition, Norton Quantum^™ Prime grinding wheels will be featured at the show. Utilizing proprietary nano-crystalline ceramic grain technology, Quantum Prime wheels offer exceptional grinding efficiency, improved part quality and significantly longer wheel life compared with traditional ceramic abrasives. Designed for a broad range of grinding applications, the wheels help manufacturers increase productivity while reducing overall grinding costs across a variety of industries and operations.

“Norton continues to focus on delivering innovative abrasive technologies that help manufacturers improve productivity, consistency and process efficiency,” said Ryan Johnson, Director of Technical Business Development. “IMTS provides an ideal opportunity to demonstrate how our latest grinding solutions can help customers address the increasing demands of today’s advanced manufacturing applications.”
