Our knowledge base

Our director takes on the battle with our sales manager in the field, Fokke versus Dirk. They both take the fight very seriously and want to win at all costs. Technically they both know how to handle a lamellar disk for the best results. They will do the test with both the same machine on the same material. The decisive factor will be the quality of the lamella disc. Who finishes the test the quickest?

Our turnover of abrasives at a large customer has been drastically reduced! The reason: Awareness of careful use and proper handling of abrasives. The profit for the customer: in addition to savings on the purchase of abrasives and abrasives, time is also saved. That's the biggest win!

On September 13th 3M organized the 1st Clash of Grinders for the Central Europe Region (CER) of 3M. Participants from various European countries competed for the title of Best Grinder. Metaaltechniek likes a challenge and we love a party. So Dirk and Ingrid went together to Düsseldorf.

The shelf life of abrasives is mainly determined by the moisture content of the environment in which they are stored and preserved. Abrasives exposed to high humidity after manufacture lose their original service life. With correct storage, however, the tool life remains approximately constant for years.

3M introduces a renewed line of Clean & Strip discs, the XT Pro and the XT-Pro Extra Cut. The good of the familiar Clean & Strip products remains: an aggressive product without affecting the material to be processed. The new Clean & Strip XT Pro (Extra Cut) has a higher formability, crumbles less and works faster.

The training of personnel to become qualified workers is an opportunity to cope with the shortage on the labour market or even to exploit it. Metaaltechniek responds to the need for personal development by offering training courses for metalworking companies.
