We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Centreless Grinding",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Oil mist extraction solves grinding problem from
Filtermist International, which we summarised at the time by saying "Found to be ideal for a heavy duty grinding machine an oil mist extraction unit uses centrifugal impaction to collect the oil mist and safely returning oil to the machine's
reservoir".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release X-Y tables made for vibratory bowl feeders from
Elscint Automation: "X-Y tables for vibratory bowl feeders - available in two models - make fine adjustments on X axis and Y axis possible, and with the Z adjustment reduce the time taken for systems integration".
In July 2006, we covered the news from Agie Charmilles
concerning its Vertex F duo-wire EDM machine
- take a look at Precision engineers buy latest wire EDM
which says: "Precision engineering specialist has invested in the latest wire EDM to manufacture high-precision and complex mould and press tools destined for use in the medical and electrical sectors".
Take a look also at the news release from Colchester-Harrison, Subcontractor adds CNC turning to up capacity,
as well as How to optimise centreless grinding process from Koerber Schleifring UK,
and Full-width CBN centreless grinding saves time from Junker Maschinenfabrik, Erwin.
