A grinder is a type of grinding machine that uses a grinding tool coated or embedded with abrasive to grind the surface of a workpiece. It achieves precision machining of the workpiece surface through the relative motion between the grinding tool and the workpiece surface. There are various types of grinders, and according to different grinding needs, grinders can be divided into disc grinders, rotary shaft grinders, and various specialized grinders.
Grinding machine classification
Disc grinder: A disc grinder is a common type of grinder that consists of a rotating disc and an adjustable grinding head. Place the workpiece on the disc, and the grinding head grinds the surface of the workpiece. This type of grinder has high grinding efficiency and is suitable for large-scale production.
Rotary shaft grinder: A rotary shaft grinder consists of a rotating spindle and one or more grinding heads. The workpiece is fixed on the turntable, and the grinding head grinds the surface of the workpiece. This type of grinder is suitable for grinding small workpieces.
Special grinding machines: In addition to the two common grinding machines mentioned above, there are also various specialized grinding machines, such as flat grinding machines, inner circle grinding machines, outer circle grinding machines, etc. These specialized grinding machines are suitable for grinding workpieces of specific shapes and sizes.
