An abrasive article includes a substrate having an elongated body, a plurality of discrete tacking regions defining a discontinuous distribution of features overlying the substrate, where at least one discrete tacking region of the plurality of discrete tacking regions includes a metal material having a melting temperature not greater than 450? C., a plurality of discrete formations overlying the substrate and spaced apart from the plurality of discrete tacking regions, and a bonding layer overlying the substrate, plurality of discrete tacking regions, and plurality of discrete formations.

A method for dressing a grinding worm using a dressing roll that engages the grinding worm to profile its helical grinding profile. The dressing roll is produced by: a) producing a disk-shaped base body a profiled surface for receiving a layer of abrasive particles, wherein the surface is at least partially tooth-shaped in a radial cross section, b) positioning the abrasive particles on the profiled surface, c) profiling the base body provided with abrasive particles by removing outer sections of the abrasive particles with a profiling tool so that the abrasive profile of the dressing roll is created. Production of the profiled surface takes place in step a) so that the distance between the profiled surface and the abrasive profile changes during advancing from the root region to the tip region at a flank of the tooth-shaped surface, measured in the radial cross section perpendicular to the profiled surface.

A method for dressing a grinding worm using a dressing roll that engages the grinding worm to profile its helical grinding profile. The abrasive profile of the dressing roll is at least partially tooth-shaped in a radial cross section and extends radially from a root region to a tip region. The dressing roll is produced by: a) producing a counterpart having an inner surface; b) positioning and fixing a layer of abrasive particles on the tooth-shaped surface; c) producing a disk-shaped base body of the dressing roll and connecting the base body with a carrier layer for the abrasive particles; d) demolding the base body; e) profiling the base body. Step a) includes providing the counterpart with the surface so that the distance between the profiled surface and the abrasive profile changes during advancing from the root region to the tip region at least at one flank of the surface, measured in the radial cross section perpendicular to the profiled surface.

A grinding tool includes a substrate having a working surface, and a plurality of abrasive particles distributed over the working surface and protruding outward from the working surface, wherein at least some of the abrasive particles are machined to form abrasive particles respectively having an obliquely truncated pyramid shape. Some embodiments described herein also include a method of manufacturing the grinding tool.
