Contract Analysis and Processing of Abrasive Grains
Contract Analysis of Abrasive Grains
We analyze all types of powders using state-of-the-art equipment.
Drawing on the extensive data and proven track record that comes from being a specialized trading company that has conducted its own incoming inspections of abrasive grains, we analyze the samples you provide. We handle all types of powders, not limited to diamond and CBN. We provide objective analytical data as a third-party organization for purposes such as verifying the quality of products purchased from other companies or serving as a backup when your own testing equipment is out of service.

Contract Analysis Process
STEP 01
Inquiry and Consultation
Please let us know the purpose of the analysis and your preferred delivery format (such as the report format). We will provide you with a sample report and a preliminary estimate (we can also sign a non-disclosure agreement).
STEP 02
Placing an Order and Sending Samples
If you are satisfied with the sample images and the details of the formal quotation, please submit the “Contract Analysis Request Form” and the purchase order, and send the samples to be analyzed to our company.
STEP 03
Conducting Contract Analysis
We will promptly analyze and measure the samples you have provided using the latest testing equipment in our in-house laboratory.
STEP 04
Submission of Reports (Delivery) and Return of Samples
Once the analysis is complete, we will provide you with a detailed analysis report based on objective data. We will also return the samples you provided.
About Contract Analysis Deliverables
In contract analysis, it is essential that our deliverables align with your expectations. Therefore, we need to thoroughly discuss and coordinate the details—including the purpose of the analysis—after hearing your requirements. For example, even when discussing particle shape analysis, there are various parameters such as ”aspect ratio,“ ”area circularity,“ and ”circularity.“ As shown in the ”Analysis Process" section above, we encourage you to form a clear picture of the expected deliverables from an early stage. We are happy to explain our equipment specifications and the details of each parameter as needed, so please feel free to contact us below, including for consultations prior to placing an order.
Contract Abrasive Processing
We customize our solutions to meet your specific needs.
We don’t just select and sell suitable products from our standard lineup; we also offer customization to meet your specific processing needs and requirements.
Precision coarse-grain cutting
We verify the size and contamination rate of coarse particles and thoroughly remove them using custom-sized screens. We can accommodate both mesh and micron sizes, helping to reduce scratches on workpieces and improve machining efficiency.
Custom Size Adjustment
To meet stricter requirements for particle size distribution, we offer optional size adjustment services using specialized sieving processes and other methods. We ensure the effectiveness of the processed products using our state-of-the-art in-house inspection equipment before shipment, so you can use them with confidence.
