The following section covers important factors to 
consider when selecting the diamond segment you are 
going to use for a given application.

They way diamond segments are set-up on the grind-
ing heads of the machine will also greatly infl uence the 
performance of the machine, the productivity levels and 
also the fi nished fl oor quality.

There are basically two types of diamond confi gura-
tions that can be used when using the grinder:

1. Full set of diamonds – when there are diamonds 
placed at each of the six positions on the diamond 
holder discs (see pictures above).

2. Half set of diamonds – when there are diamonds 
placed at three alternating positions on the diamond 
holder discs (see pictures above).

Presence of water.

Number of segments under the machine.

Adding an additional abrasive (e.g. sand, silicone 
carbide) on the fl oor will increase wear.

Generally speaking, the faster a diamond segment 
wears, the faster the productivity will be.

By varying the above factors, changes can also be 
made to effect the following:

Scratch pattern.

Current draw of machine.

Flatness of fl oor (see next section).

Ease of operation.
