External cylindrical grinding wheels
External cylindrical grinding wheels are essential components in precision machining, used to create accurate cylindrical shapes and fine finishes on various materials. These wheels come in a variety of materials, including aluminium oxide and superabrasives like diamond and CBN, catering to different requirements of surface finish and material removal rates. The choice of wheel depends on the specific application, whether it's for automotive, aerospace, or general tool room use. For instance, aluminium oxide wheels are commonly used for general-purpose grinding, while CBN and ceramic abrasive wheels are preferred for high-hardness materials. The precision and efficiency of external cylindrical grinding have made it a critical process in industries that require high levels of accuracy and surface integrity.
