HOW DO I CHOOSE A SURFACE GRINDER?

A surface grinder is a type of machine tool used to provide precision ground surfaces on a workpiece. Surface grinders are commonly used in the manufacturing and metalworking industries to produce flat surfaces on machine parts, tools, and dies. They can also be used for finishing operations, such as removing surface burrs or sharp edges from a workpiece. Surface grinders can be operated manually or using computer numerical control (CNC) technology to automate the grinding process.

A surface grinder has a grinding wheel and a chuck, which holds the workpiece in place. The grinding wheel is typically made of abrasive materials such as diamond or aluminum oxide, and it rotates at a high speed to remove material from the workpiece. The part that moves the workpiece back and forth under the grinding wheel is called a reciprocating table.

Is a coolant system important in a surface grinder?

There are coolant systems in surface grinders, but not all surface grinders have a cooling system! Most of the larger industrial models used for heavy-duty grinding have a coolant system.

Does the type of coolant system in a surface grinder matter?

When choosing a surface grinder consider the type of coolant system the machine has since it will affect the quality of the finished piece as well as the grinding process. The coolant system cools the grinding wheel and workpiece during the grinding process which prevents the material from overheating and causing damage to the machine or workpiece. It also helps to remove the metal chips generated during the grinding process, and will keep the grinding wheel and workpiece clean and free of debris. The smaller benchtop models of surface grinders may not have a coolant system, but may instead use a manual spray bottle or a drip system to apply coolant to the workpiece and grinding wheel.
