Metal-Bonded Grinding Rings – Bearing Grinding

The "horseshoe" method: a metal-bonded grinding wheel for efficient face grinding of multiple cylindrical roller ends.

Metallgebundene Schleifringe – Lagerschleifen

Machining rolling elements in bearing production presents significant challenges in terms of tolerances and cycle times. EHWA, together with one of the world's leading bearing manufacturers, developed a special metal-bonded grinding wheel that efficiently grinds the end faces of multiple cylindrical rollers at once – the so-called horseshoe method.

Benefits of the EHWA CBN grinding wheel in metal bond

  • Long tool life – cost savings on tool procurement and reduced setup times
  • High material removal rates possible
  • High-quality surfaces achievable

Case example – diamond grinding wheel in metal bond

For this application, EHWA also offers a diamond grinding wheel in metal bond.
