Can it read a wheel marking the way we write it?

Yes. Shape, abrasive, grit, grade and bond are read from the marking, and the full marking is kept as written.

What if the enquiry leaves out the abrasive?

It asks. The abrasive is never assumed, even when the size and bond are stated.

Does a wheel's history follow it through re-profiling?

Yes. Each wheel keeps its own code and service count, so its history comes back with it.
