Centerless Grinders Our Refurbishment Process
The Centerless rebuild process is carried out by apprentice served engineers who fully understand the Centerless machines. Many of the older centerless machines we work on require the traditional skills of scraping or require upgrading to modern specifications. We have maintained these skills and use modern techniques to bring the centerless grinder to its original capabilities.
In many cases we introduce modern technology to enhance the centerless grinder further, we design and fit loading systems, C.N.C. controls, auto balancing to the grinding wheel spindle to bring your refurbished centerless machine to a modern specification.
