Diagrind was birthed in problem-solving. In 1967, Ingolf Sneva was looking for a product that could more effectively and efficiently grind the carbide dies his company produced…a problem he solved himself. The vitreous metal (VM) bonding system he developed, paired with the industrial diamond from industry leader General Electric, remains as the core of the company almost 60 years later, albeit with some modernizing tweaks along the way.
