 MCD (Mono-Crystaline Diamond) and CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) 
                    are free-cutting, fully synthetic diamond products. Contrary 
                    to natural diamond, MCD and CVD exhibit excellent thermal 
                    conductivity which facilitates heat dissipation and provides 
                    consistent dressing performance and wear characteristics.
 
 Serveral Blades are available to suit a variety of grinding 
                    applications.
 
 Dessau MCD Dressing Tools are primarily used for dressing 
                    submicron crystal ceramic abrasives such as 81A, 83A, 85A, 
                    93A, 5SG, etc. (a.k.a. ‘SG’). MCDs also provide 
                    good results when dressing silicon carbides. MCD is not recommended 
                    for dressing aluminum oxide wheels as these abrasives are 
                    not aggressive enough to maintain the free-cutting ability 
                    of MCD. Dessau CVD Dressing Tools are used for dressing conventional 
                    Aluminum Oxide wheels.

 Dessau Dressing Blades can be used for straight or profile 
                    dressing, as illustrated below.  
 
 Cylindrical profile dressing applications:
 MCD inserts can be arranged in parallel or at 45 degrees into the blade dressing blank.
		    On the basis of crystallography, it may be inferred that "parallel arrangement" is more 
		    wear resistant and more effective when dealing with "hard" wheel bonds.
		    When dealing with "softer" wheel bonds, the 45 degree arrangement should lead to improved
		    self-sharpening of the MCD.
 
 Use a blade with no more than three inserts, as more may lead 
                    to profile distortion. Also, use parallel mounted inserts of a minimum cross-section of 0.6mm
		    such that the edges will hold during profiling.
