External cylindrical grinding

External cylindrical grinding is a widely used process in industrial applications. In particular, when cylindrical outer surfaces need to be ground round or when the optimum surface finish is to be achieved on workpieces such as camshafts, crankshafts or transmission shafts. The process is used in the machining of unalloyed and low-alloyed steels, high-alloyed steels, HSS, tungsten carbide, industrial ceramics and cast metals.

The decisive factor in the selection of the tool is the matching of the grinding wheel in the overall process to the specific requirements of the grinding application. The right combination of workpiece properties, tool, machine, setting parameters, cooling lubricant and dressing technology makes a lasting contribution to the perfect grinding result. Our focus is clearly on the perfect coordination of these areas – as a result, Tyrolit is regarded as the reliable partner of the automotive sector as well as numerous other industries where precision and efficiency are key. This is mainly due to our large selection of high-quality tools and to our consulting services, offering a specification selection and individual adaptation of process parameters.
