Diamond grit impregnated dressers are more economical because of their low initial cost and their resistance to shock and impact which prevents shattering.
Dressing times are reduced as higher feed rates can be used. There is an unlimited number of sharp pull-out free cutting edges contained in the crushed diamond grit.
Normally dressing speeds are used. A Plentiful supply of coolant should be provided both before and during dressing to prolong dresser life. The diamond grit impregnated cutting face of the dresser should be set at an angle of 90* to the cutting edges of the diamonds grit are able to make contact with the wheel face
