Typical Applications
-
Precision finishing of flat surfaces on dies, fixtures, gauge plates, and machine bases.
-
Power and cement plant maintenance, including grinding of bearing plates, liners, wear plates, and housings.
-
Steel plant toolrooms for reconditioning flat tools, shear blades, and precision plates.
-
Defence workshops for accurate surface finishing of armour plates, tooling components, and precision assemblies.
-
Surface grinding is typically used as a final finishing or corrective operation after machining, where flatness, parallelism, and surface finish are critical.
Machine Description
Machine Description
- • Surface grinding machines are designed for precision finishing of flat surfaces where milling cannot reliably achieve the required flatness or surface finish.
- • Commonly deployed in toolrooms and production workshops as accuracy-defining assets rather than high material-removal machines.
- • Rigid machine structure manufactured from high-grade, stress-relieved grey cast iron conforming to IS:210, ensuring long-term dimensional stability.
- • Box-type column design providing high rigidity and effective vibration damping during grinding operations.
- • Hardened and ground alloy steel spindle supported on matched bearing pairs, grease-packed for life, suitable for sustained grinding duty with stable thermal behaviour.
- • Electro-mechanical table movements enabling smooth and controlled longitudinal and cross travel.
- • Guideways lined with Turcite-B to reduce friction, prevent stick-slip, and minimise long-term wear.
- • Electromagnetic chuck with electronic controller for quick clamping, demagnetising, and safe job release directly on the machine.

Configuration Notes
- 1. Surface grinding machines are precision finishing assets, typically selected based on required flatness, surface finish, component size, weight, and workshop cleanliness.
- 2. They are not substitutes for milling or heavy stock-removal machines, but complementary tools in a complete mechanical workshop.
