Grinding Machines

Metal Grinder – Construction and Features

A metal grinder is a specialised machine designed for processing metallic materials. It uses abrasive wheels of different grits to efficiently remove excess material, smooth surfaces and eliminate impurities. This ensures perfectly smooth and aesthetically finished components.

The basic structure of a metal grinder consists of several key parts:

• Abrasive wheel – responsible for cutting and smoothing. Depending on the grinder type, it can be mounted on various axes and operate at different angles;
• Drive system – provides the power required for efficient wheel operation, which translates into machining accuracy and speed;
• Worktable – the surface on which the workpiece is placed. Adjustable height and tilt allow precise positioning of the material as needed;
• Safety guards – protect the operator from sparks and small metal particles generated during grinding.

Modern metal grinders are capable of meeting even the most demanding tasks while maintaining reliability and operator safety.

Types of Metal Grinders

The market offers several types of metal grinders, each differing in design and functionality:

• Surface grinders – machines designed for machining flat surfaces. They feature a robust worktable and high precision, commonly used in tool and mould production and the automotive industry;
• Belt grinders – ideal for working with large surfaces. The abrasive belt, mounted on rotating rollers, enables even and precise removal of excess material. These machines are suitable for fast, efficient, high-volume production;
• Cylindrical and internal grinders – designed for precision machining of cylindrical components. The ability to match the wheel precisely to the workpiece shape ensures excellent results, regardless of size. Commonly used in machinery and precision component manufacturing;
• Tool grinders – used for sharpening cutting tools. They help maintain high sharpness and proper tool profiles.

All these types of grinders are available in the CORMAK range.
