Centreless grinding machines- A different approach towards grinding

Centreless grinding machines have a significant role to play in the mechanical field when various applications are not being able to process by the conventional machines. This allows high throughput as the parts of such machines can be inserted and removed quickly from the process. The entire setup of the machines is similar to the centered grinding except the use of spindle. This type of machine shows a lot of advantages in terms of its capacity to grind soft or brittle materials like plastics, needle shaped materials and rod sized materials too.
The flexibility of the machine enables it to handle special grinding applications. Centreless grinding is a process where the workpiece is not required to be held in the grinding machine mechanically instead it is held between two rotating wheels. Centreless grinders are suited for In-feed, thru feed and form grinding of components related to metallic and nonmetallic types.

Centreless Grinding machines are manufactured and designed for the purpose of mass production which assures consistent accuracy. They allow materials to be altered, smoothed and changed in a convenient way. They have been known for their minimum power consumption, low maintenance and long service along with highly efficient grinding.  Some of the standard accessories which are the requirements for manufacturing of such machines:

• Controller
• Regulating wheel with flanges
• Grinding wheel
• Coolant pump with a tank
• Splash guards
• Hydraulic tank with a pump

Salient features:

• Rigid and stable
• Automated variable speed regulated for the wheel
• Centralized lubrication system
• Automatic in-feed, grinding cycle
• Auto loading & un-loading system
• Precision Guide ways and ball screws for each CNC axis
• No abrasion
• Constant and precise rotating accuracy

Precision designed centerless grinding machines find a wide range of applications in various industries. The superior quality of such grinding machines is manufactured using premium raw materials. Technically being efficient the range of the machines operates without any hassle at the time of use. Electrical industries, heavy engineering industries, automotive industries and cement industries are such platforms where the use of the  CNC grinding machines has made their mark.
