What Is Precision Grinding?

Precision grinding is a finishing process that removes material from a workpiece with high accuracy and minimal surface roughness. The process uses an abrasive grinding wheel or belt to fine-tune dimensions, remove imperfections, and achieve a smooth surface finish. Unlike other finishing methods, precision grinding can achieve micron-level tolerances and is essential when part geometry and surface finish must be controlled with meticulous precision.

Precision grinding is used in many industries to achieve exacting standards in components that require tight tolerances or critical surface finishes. This makes it indispensable for sectors like aerospace, automotive, defense, and medical manufacturing.

Our Precision Grinding Capabilities

Our comprehensive precision grinding services include a range of grinding techniques tailored to different applications. Each process is performed by experienced technicians using advanced grinding machines to ensure optimal performance and consistency.

Cylindrical Grinding

This method is used to grind the outside diameter of cylindrical parts to exact dimensions and surface finishes. Cylindrical grinding is ideal for shafts, rollers, and other round components requiring a high degree of concentricity.

Centerless Grinding

In centerless grinding, the workpiece is held between a grinding wheel and a regulating wheel, without the need for a center point. This method is highly efficient for high-volume production runs and enables the grinding of long or slender parts that may be challenging to support with conventional methods.

Internal Grinding

Internal grinding targets the inside diameter of parts, producing smooth internal surfaces and precise bores. This is often used for tubes, sleeves, and components that must fit with extreme accuracy within assemblies.

Spindle Grinding

Spindle grinding restores worn or damaged spindles to original equipment manufacturer (OEM) tolerances, ensuring your machinery and tooling operate with peak efficiency. This type of grinding is critical for tool and die setups and production environments where performance degradation impacts quality and output.

Surface Grinding

Surface grinding focuses solely on creating smooth, flat surfaces. It uses a rotating abrasive wheel to remove material from the surface of a workpiece, making it ideal for tooling plates, blocks, and parts where flatness and parallelism are critical. Surface grinding is typically used for mold bases, die blocks, and other flat-faced components.
