SURFACE GRINDING

SURFACE GRINDING - TOP 3 BEST SURFACE GRINDING COMPANIES IN VIETNAM

What is surface grinding?

Surface grinding is a process in manufacturing with one specialized purpose of creating flat, high definition surfaces on parts. Jigs, molds and dies are one of many products that require absolute accuracy of the surface grinding machine, down to the smallest precision requirements. The process can be applicable to both metallic and non-metallic substances.

Sure there are cutting tools that can also do the grinding work, but the surface grinder is meticulously important because it does not only help manufacturers achieve a mirror-like finish, but also the depth, curve or parallel between edges – something you can’t hardly get with a regular mill or lathe.

How does it work?

Manufacturers can use either an automated surface grinder – motor-driven grinding machine designed with advanced technical features – or a manual surface grinder with the use of a highly-skilled operator. (Check out our blog on manual grinding vs automatic grinding!)


The process of Surface Grinding is an abrasive one, meaning that two surfaces will be in rough contact with each other to rub off a thin layer of one. The workpiece (the part that needs flattening) is secured in place by a chuck mounted on a worktable. Then a spinning wheel, made with abrasive materials, will grind against the surface of the workpiece to remove impurities. Abrasive materials are particles of diamond, silicon carbide or aluminum oxide. Each particle in the wheel acts individually as a cutting tool, referred to as single-point, while the entire wheel, which consists of a great amount of abrasives, is called a multi-point cutting tool. The end result of the process is precise dimensions and quality coating finishes.

In a manual surface grinder, in order to spin the wheel for the grinding process, an operator will have to manhandle the handwheel. This step requires meticulous skill from the worker as the workpiece has to be placed precisely. When being grinded together, friction causes two surfaces to produce an excessive amount of heat, resulting in tiny bright sparks of fire. Once the surface of the product is free of impurities, the sparks will disappear. Due to such a high level of heat generated, coolant – a type of liquid that can remove heat – is pumped onto the grinding surface.
