Tailored grinding device – if it really needs to fit
Exact, stable, low-maintenance – our grinding devices are not universal components, but precise special solutions for your grinding task. We develop and manufacture them in such a way that they perfectly fix your workpiece, position it in a repeatable manner and can easily be integrated into your machine. Whether series production, single piece or retrofit.
Why a grinding device is often the decisive difference
If you want to grind precisely, you need more than a good spindle – namely control of the workpiece position. This is where our grinding devices are used. They ensure that each component is exactly where it needs to be located – and that is reliable for each cycle. Our devices are used when:
- Standard clamping technology is not sufficient, for example with asymmetric, unstable or rotationally critical workpieces
- high repeatability is required, for example with narrow shape and position tolerances
- complex component geometries must be safely guided, even with difficult accessibility or limited installation space
- the process is to run automatically, for example in 3-shift operation or with robotic connection
- Set-up times must be reduced, for example in frequently changing series or small batch sizes
In short: Whenever precision, process reliability and usability meet, an individually designed device is not only helpful but necessary.

Additional grinding device ZSG150F/001
This external unit has been developed to integrate grinding processes directly into web grinding machines, for example in the context of a retrofit or for functional expansion of existing machining centres. The entire assembly is mounted on a cross-slide and allows sensitive delivery in two axes. The compact spindle unit is designed to be durable and ready for continuous grinding. The rotational speed and the drive can be precisely regulated via an external control.

Round grinding device for lathes
This grinding device is designed for direct mounting in the multifix holder of lathes. It complements the machining process with flexible grinding operations without requiring additional machines. The grinding drive takes place via a robust belt construction, the spindle is for Interiorand External grinding applications suitable. Control and reversal of the direction of rotation take place via an external switching unit. Depending on the requirement, different variants with graduated engine power and spindle length are available.

This makes our grinding device
Precision sitting
We achieve rounding accuracy below 2 μm – not a marketing spoke, but measurable. Their components sit in the first attempt – and at the hundredth as well.
Robust, maintenance-free construction
No cheap parts in need of adjustment, but durable guide elements and clamping force constant mechanisms. Many devices have been in 3-shift operation for years.
Reduce setup times, increase productivity
A workpiece change does not last longer than a coffee click. Through workpiece-specific contours, everything razes where it should – without fummelei.
Ready for use
We supply ready-to-install systems, adapted to your machine. No milling, no fitting – screw on, loose.
How to benefit in everyday life – concrete and tangible
A good device not only saves time and reject, it also reduces sources of error throughout the entire manufacturing process. Because if the workpiece is exactly positioned and is securely clamped, the process runs stable – from the first to the last machining.
- Up to 70% less setup time due to defined bearing surfaces and clamping points
- Less reject, because no position errors or clamping deformations occur
- Stable machining conditions, even at high grinding pressures and long cycle times
- Reduced effort in quality assurance, since the component layer can be reproduced
- Less tool wear due to minimized vibrations and vibrations
How to get your grinding device – step by step
A good device is not created by chance, but by structure. This is how the process is going – fast, clear and practical:
- You send us a drawing, sketch or a component: Whether digital or physical – we check all the documents and speak directly with your technology when you ask questions.
- We analyze the requirements: We clarify location, tolerance, clamping strategy, installation space and interfaces – directly with you, without detours.
- You will receive an individual device concept: Includes technical description, price, delivery time and, if necessary, Recommendations for suitable components such as spindle or mandrel.
- We design and manufacture at our house: each step is documented. On request with intermediate releases or digital meetings.
- You will receive your device ready for installation – including documentation: On request with test protocol, list of pieces and serial number for traceability.
Typical fields of application – where it really matters
Our grinding devices are used wherever repeatability, dimensional accuracy and process stability are required:
- Automotive industry: camshafts, injection parts, transmission components
- Medical technology: implants, surgical tools, guide bushings
- Tool & Moulding: dies, dies, hardened tool parts
- Aerospace: turbine parts, engine axes, rotationally symmetrical high-performance components
- machining & contract production: changing workpiece series with high demands
