CME News

At CME we realize the necessity and importance of maintaining proper button profile and protrusion throughout the life of the drill bit. A faulty reground button profile and improper protrusion combined with faulty drill accuracy is a very costly way of drilling. Some of the negative side effects include deviation which can cause costly premature deterioration of both drill steel and bits, furthermore causing inconsistent fragmentation, secondary drilling, and blasting, shortened bit life and performance by as much as 50%. As a solution, CME offers a complete line of inexpensive portable and stationary bit grinders that sharpen the bit to a near "new-like" condition. With over 25 years experience in the grinding industry CME offers the most innovative and technology oriented solution to suite whatever your needs may be. Average life of the bit is improved by 50% and net penetration levels improve on average 35%. These figures are too big to ignore. See our new product section for further details.
