The lychee wheel is a special abrasive tool commonly used for stone surface treatment, mainly used to process a rough texture effect similar to "lychee surface". The following is a detailed description of the application and working principle of the lychee wheel in stone processing:
1. Structure and material of the lychee wheel
Material: Usually made of a metal matrix (such as aluminum alloy) and diamond or silicon carbide abrasives, with high hardness and wear resistance.
Surface design: The surface of the wheel body is densely distributed with raised particles or blades, arranged like the surface of lychee, and the stone surface is impacted and polished by rotating friction.
2. Application scenario
Stone type: Suitable for hard stones such as granite, marble, and artificial stone.
Processing effect:
Anti-slip treatment: Used in places that require anti-slip, such as square floor tiles and stair steps.
Decorative effect: Create a natural and rough lychee surface and antique surface to enhance the three-dimensional sense and beauty of the stone.
Repair old stone: Remove the weathering layer and restore the surface texture.
3. Processing steps
Rough processing: Use a large-grain lychee wheel (such as 30#-50#) to roughen the stone surface to form a uniform concave and convex texture.
Fine processing: Use a small-grain lychee wheel (such as 100#-200#) to refine the texture, reduce burrs, and improve the touch.
Cleaning and maintenance: After removing the stone powder, apply a protective agent to enhance stain resistance and gloss.
4. Equipment and operation
Equipment: Use with a handheld angle grinder, stone polisher or automated CNC machine tool.
Parameter adjustment:
Speed: Usually controlled at 1000-3000 rpm to avoid excessive speed causing stone edge collapse.
Pressure: Apply pressure evenly to avoid local excessive wear.
Cooling: It is recommended to spray water to cool down, reduce dust and extend tool life.
5. Advantages and precautions
Advantages:
High efficiency, suitable for large-area processing.
Texture is controllable, and the effect is uniform and natural.
Note:
Wear protective equipment such as goggles and masks during operation.
Choose the appropriate abrasive size according to the hardness of the stone.
Clean the debris on the wheel body regularly to maintain grinding efficiency.
6. Comparison of lychee surface and other stone surface treatments
Treatment method Effect characteristics Applicable scenarios
Lychee wheel treatment Uniform graininess, good anti-slip performance Outdoor floors and exterior walls
Burned surface Strong bumps and natural texture Granite squares and courtyards
Polished surface Smooth mirror surface, high-end feeling Indoor countertops and wall decorations
Sandblasted surface Delicate matte, non-directional Carved and complex stone
By reasonably selecting the specifications and operation process of the lychee wheel, you can achieve ideal decorative and functional effects on the stone. The specific parameters need to be adjusted according to the actual stone type and processing requirements. It is recommended to test and confirm the effect on a small sample first.
