Peripheral grinding machines

Circumferential, longitudinal and deep grinding processes

Peripheral grinding machines achieve surface, bevel or serrated grinding on workpieces. The effective area of the longitudinal grinding is the circumference of the grinding wheel.

Depending on the workpiece and the desired material removal rate, the grinding process is either pendulum or creepfeed grinding.

If the workpiece is processed in a deep grinding process, a large amount of material can be removed and a good surface quality can be achieved.

Peripheral grinding wheels are used when a serrated or scalloped grinding and/or a pointed toothing have to be achieved on machine knives.
