Grinding Services
.Ist das alles die gleiche seite?
Grinding services use abrasive processes to achieve tight dimensional tolerances and surface finishes beyond what milling or turning alone can provide. The suppliers below grind machined parts on a contract basis for European industry.
What Grinding Services suppliers provide
Suppliers in this category finish machined or hardened parts using surface, cylindrical, or centreless grinding processes to achieve close tolerances and specified surface roughness. Their core competence lies in matching grinding process and abrasive selection to the part material, hardness, and geometry, particularly for hardened steel and tool components. Many also provide inspection and measurement services to verify the finished tolerance. In the pre-selection phase, compare which grinding processes and part sizes each supplier handles rather than individual wheel specifications.
Relevant standards
Geometrical and dimensional tolerancing follows ISO 1101 and ISO 2768. Supplier quality management is typically certified to ISO 9001, with AS9100 relevant for aerospace-grade components.
Frequently asked questions
When is grinding required instead of finishing by milling or turning alone?
Grinding is typically specified when a part requires tighter dimensional tolerances or finer surface finish than milling or turning can reliably achieve, or when the part has been hardened after initial machining and needs finish machining afterward.
