Cutting, bevelling, welding and dressing – day-to-day container engineering involves heavy-duty material processing and is constrained by standardised dimensions and workflows.
The grinding tools used must perform at their best on structural steel while also offering a long tool lifetime. They need to be safe, cost-effective and reliable.
For container engineering firms, RHODIUS can offer especially aggressive grinding tools, with cutting and grinding discs that offer their users efficient, low-vibration operation.
And even where weld seams don’t need to be ground completely flat in container construction – to ensure better adhesion for paint or a powder coating, for example – deburring and grinding is still needed.
With its versatile RS2, RHODIUS has a grinding disc in its product range that offers excellent stock removal performance for grinding plus especially cost-effective working as a result of its long lifetime. Our application engineers and field staff can provide you with the best advice about the best cutting or grinding disc for container construction, perfectly matched to the material, the machine and the challenges faced by your company.
Cutting
If a long service life is the most important factor, cutting discs should be chosen that are a perfect match for the machine and the material.
Deburring
High-volume production in container construction needs fast grinding tools with a long service life. Performance is what counts, with absolute precision only a secondary factor.
Grinding
Tools that offer quick, low-vibration operation should also be selected for this kind of work. The next step is painting or coating.
Where freehand cutting discs are used in container engineering, these discs must cut quickly, and be both safe and simple to handle. Here too, the longest possible disc lifetime is also a decisive criterion. This applies equally to the stationary discs used in high-volume production – such as for cutting metal sections to length, for example. And RHODIUS also has the right products available to meet even highly specialised and non-standardised requirements in metalworking – especially in the area of fine grinding. With its LSZ F2 zirconium flap disc, RHODIUS offers a grinding tool for container construction that achieves top marks all round for its high stock removal performance on both steel and stainless steel, plus a long lifetime and impressive price-performance ratio.
