  • Patent number: 10239184
    Abstract: A roller assembly for a rotary dresser comprise a plurality of axial segments which may be in the form of discs, each disc provided with an abrasive, radially outer surface. The discs are secured in axial alignment, each in a preconfigured rotational orientation. The disc assembly has a centrally arranged aperture for receiving a rotor shaft. The abrasive surface of the assembly can be accurately presented as an array of uniformly shaped abrasive units in a predefined pattern.
