Centerless Grinding with Zische Abrasives

Efficient, precise, and truly centerless – Grinding without clamping

Centerless external cylindrical grinding is one of the most efficient processes for machining rotationally symmetrical parts.
The unique feature: The workpiece is not clamped but lies freely between the grinding wheel, the regulating wheel, and the workrest blade.
This allows to produce large quantities with exceptional dimensional accuracy and repeatability – at minimal cycle times.

Whether needle rollers for bearings, piston pins, or valves – wherever components need to roll or rotate reliably millions of times, centerless grinding is the method of choice.
