Compounds

Compounds are added to the disc finishing machines during the grinding process in order to produce clean, bright and non-corroded workpiece surfaces. With impact-sensitive workpieces, the compound creates a foam buffer betweem the workpieces and the abrasive media. The compounds supplied by OTEC not only provide the best possible finishing results, but are also easy to break down in the waste water treatement system because they do not contain strong complexing agents.
