We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Internal 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 Machine radius grinds hard metal punches/dies from Danobat Group, which we summarised at the time by saying "A radius grinding machine produces hard metal punches and cutting dies for the can, battery, copper pipe and cutting tool insert manufacturers". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Cylindrical grinding developments shown from Danobat Group: "Two cylindrical grinding machine developments offer precision universal grinding and a modular system that can combine conventional and high speed grinding processes".
 
In August 2007, we covered the news from Meister Abrasives, USA concerning its Superabrasive external grinding wheels - take a look at Superabrasive OD wheels grind 20% faster which says: "Users of outside diameter superabrasive grinding wheels are reporting cycles up to 20% faster and/or cost per part reductions up to 30%".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Emag UK, Vertical production grinding centre hard turns, as well as Facing and internal grinding made in one set-up from Danobat Group, and Turn your lathe into a grinding machine from Jena Rotary Technology.
