Key Trends in the Market

Centerless grinding refers to the process of removal of materials from the OD (outside diameter) of a workpiece by deploying an abrasive wheel. It is used for refining carbide rods, motor shafts, pivots, and axles, among other crucial components of industrial machines. It facilitates the manufacturing of tight tolerance components that have strict design parameters and provide an excellent surface finish and roundness/straightness to them.

  • To upscale production, companies involved in centerless grinding are automating loading and unloading of components, deploying CNC machines, and using robots for executing infeed applications. The adoption of novel technologies and growing automation are some of the key factors shaping the centerless grinding market trends.
  • The growing popularity of precision grinding due to various advantages associated with their utilisation, including high accuracy of dimension specifications and smooth surface finish, is providing lucrative growth opportunities to the market. Due to these advantages, the utilisation of precision grinding is increasing for the manufacture of different scientific equipment.
  • The demand for small and finely designed medical equipment is significantly increasing in the healthcare sector because of the psychological relief associated with minimally invasive procedures and their cost-effectiveness in the long run. This is boosting the demand for precision grinding machines for medical applications, aiding the centerless grinding market growth.
