Komet USA Introduces Turbo Diamonds

Komet USA announces the availability of its Turbo Diamond instrument series, designed for quick material reduction and optimal cooling of the treatment surface area. Komet Turbo Diamonds perform this powerful combination of functions by applying super coarse grit and a special cooling spiral that takes up water and transports it directly to the grinding area. In addition, sliding contact intervals constantly break the evolution of heat to support the cooling effect. As a result, practitioners can achieve bulk material reduction through super-coarse grain, cooling efficiency through spiral coating, and good chip removal.
