                       SURFACE GRINDING BENEFITS                              ROTARY GRINDING WITH SEGMENTS
        Surface grinding is the process of grinding flat surfaces. The   Face grinding is used for machining extremely large, flat
        workpiece is supported on a rectangular table that moves   surfaces and ganged parts. The abrasives used are different
        back & forth, reciprocating beneath the grinding wheel.   shaped segments, forming a circle of abrasive surface with
        Most have horizontal wheel spindles and mount            excellent contact for parts being ground.  Because the cutting
        T-1, T-5, T-7 & T-2 type wheels.                         volumes are usually very high, with the proper abrasive blend
        • Grinding very hard or abrasive materials               and bonds very high G-factors can be achieved.
        • High degree of dimensional accuracy
        • Produces surface textures of very high finish                            GENERAL APPLICATIONS
