What is Cylindrical / centerless grinding?

Cylindrical / centerless grinding capability for titanium components

Precision machining capability for Cylindrical / centerless grinding, utilizing multi-axis CNC centers with in-process inspection and SPC quality control.

Engineering Parameters & Capabilities

5-axis CNC milling centers provide simultaneous multi-axis interpolation for complex titanium components. The ability to tilt the tool relative to the workpiece surface maintains optimal chip load and extends tool life, critical for difficult-to-machine titanium alloys.

Parameter Primary Method Alternative Method
Kinematics Full 5-axis simultaneous interpolation 3+2 positional indexing
Surface Finish Ra 0.8 µm standard; Ra 0.2 µm with finishing pass Ra 1.6–6.3 µm
Tool Access Unrestricted — tool can approach from any angle Limited — each setup indexes the part

Engineering Capabilities & Limits

Precision machining capability for Cylindrical / centerless grinding, utilizing multi-axis CNC centers with in-process inspection and SPC quality control.

Hole Types Supported

Coolant passages Threaded holes at compound angles Counterbored fastener holes

Heat Control Measures

High-pressure coolant-through-spindle (50–70 bar) with coated carbide tooling. Adaptive trochoidal milling paths reduce radial engagement to control heat generation.

Flatness & Stress Relief

Stress-relieved raw material and sequenced roughing/finishing passes. Heat-sink fixturing for thin-wall sections minimizes thermal distortion.

Tolerance

±0.01 mm (positional) / ±0.02 mm (contour)
