Side grinding – often also called double-sided face grinding – is used to create functional surfaces with high requirements as to evenness, plan parallelism and surface quality. The main application areas lie in car manufacture, in the bearing industry and in machinebuilding.

The components are usually manufactured under mass-production conditions where additional high demands are made on automatizability and process stability.

Owing to the process, large areas of contact and long grain contact paths lead to low forces aimed of a single-grain forces. The consequence is increased generation of heat which must be counteracted by intelligent tool concepts.

• greater cutting ability
• lower tolerance scattering
• lower grinding force
• higher stock-removal rate
• longer lifetime

CENTURIA comprises the complete spectrum of tools for side grinding:

• Segments
• Rings
• Cups
• Single grinding wheels
• Grinding wheel set

These manifold tool forms are implemented in different technologies adapted to the respective application. No matter whether with conventional or super-hard abrasives in vitrified or resinoid bonds - CENTURIA offers a solution.
