Seat / bore grinding with EHWA CBN grinding pins


Injection valves in combustion engines transport the fuel into the combustion chamber under high pressure. Due to the “downsizing” of engines, injection valves nowadays have to withstand very high pressures and work with meticulous precision.

Seat grinding and bore grinding are common manufacturing processes for injection components. The challenge with these grinding applications is the very small tool dimensions, which must nevertheless enable high-precision and economical grinding.
