OD Grinding Wheels

OD or “Cylindrical Grinding” involves grinding the periphery of a rotating workpiece.  There are various forms of OD Grinding including Plunge Operations, “Peel” Grinding, Traversing Operations, and Profile grinding.   Superabrasive and Conventional Wheels are widely used in OD Grinding applications of all types and on a multitude of materials. South Bay has developed a number of Diamond and CBN specifications for Traditional and Profile OD Grinding.  We offer some of these standards from our inventory.  In addition, custom specifications and wheel geometries can be manufactured to meet your requirements.  Wherever they can be introduced and utilized, “Superabrasives” will pay big dividends with respect to process control, overall part quality, and cost.  Please contact us for a quote.
