CENTERLESS GRINDER
a machine that uses abrasive cutting to remove material

process
from work piece. It is typically used in preference to

about
basics
types
other grinding processes for operations where many
parts must be processed in a short time.
 HOW TO USE
CENTERLESS GRINDERS
Infeed centerless grinding is analogous to plunge grinding on a center-type
machine. The work is placed on the blade, and the regulating wheel moves into a
programmed feed to begin the grind. The work does not move axially in this type of
centerless grinding.
 HOW TO USE
CENTERLESS GRINDERS
Check if the thrufeed setup is correct. The wear line on the workblade should be
parallel to the top of the blade edge.
 HOW TO USE
CENTERLESS GRINDERS
Setting the centerline of a workpiece on the centerlines of the grinding and
regulating wheels will not produce rounding. In this setup, any high spot will create
a diametrically opposite low spot. Over time, the workpiece will look like the
exaggerated shape shown at the bottom.
 HOW TO USE
CENTERLESS GRINDERS
How the diamond block can be set to obtain true line contact on the regulating
wheel.
 HOW TO USE
CENTERLESS GRINDERS
Thrufeed grinding is generally applied to continuous, volume production
applications. The wheels are dressed in such a way that the workpiece is driven
through the cutting zone, across the face of the grinding wheel. Often a single pass
is sufficient to finish the workpiece.

GRINDING WHEELS
GRINDING WHEELS
an expendable wheel that carries an abrasive
compound on its periphery. These wheels are used in
grinding machines.
 
GRINDING WHEELS
Materials used are generally silicon carbide and
diamond with a vitrified bonding agent. In production
grinding, a wide array of materials are used. Wheels
with different abrasives, structure, bond, grade, and
grain sizes are available
 TYPES

GRINDING WHEELS
STANDARD TYPES OF
GRINDING WHEELS
 Types of grinding
wheels

CUP WHEEL
Used in Tool and Cutter grinders where orientation
of the wheel and a slim profile are required. These
wheels are used (and dressed) on the side face and
have the advantage of producing a truly flat surface
on the side of lathe tools. They are used in jig
grinders to produce flat surfaces or counterbores.
 Types of grinding
wheels

STRAIGHT WHEEL
These are by far the most common style of wheel
and can be found on bench or pedestal grinders.
They are used on the periphery only and therefore
produce a slightly concave surface (hollow ground)
on the part. This can be used to advantage on many
tools such a chisels.
 Types of grinding
wheels

CYLINDER WHEEL
Cylinder wheels provide a long, wide surface with no
center mounting support (hollow). They can be very
large, up to 12" in width. They are used only in
vertical or horizontal spindle grinders.
 
 Types of grinding
wheels

TAPERED WHEEL
A straight wheel that tapers outward towards the
center of the wheel. This arrangement is stronger
than straight wheels and can accept higher lateral
loads.
 Types of grinding
wheels

DIAMOND WHEEL
They are used for grinding extremely hard materials
such as carbide tips, gemstones or concrete. The
saw pictured to the right is a slitting saw and is
designed for slicing hard materials, typically
gemstones.
 Types of grinding
wheels

SAUCER WHEEL
A special grinding profile that is used to grind milling
cutters and twist drills. It is most common in non-
machining areas, as sawfilers use saucer wheels in
the maintenance of sawblades.
