Bearing grinding - face grinding with "Horseshoe concept"


The machining of roller elements in bearing production is highly challenging and demanding in terms of tolerances and cycle times. Together with one of the world's leading bearing manufacturers, EHWA developed a special metal-bonded grinding wheel that can be used to effectively grind the face of several cylindrical rollers, the so-called "horseshoe process".
