Types of Surface Grinders

Types of Surface Grinders Points : Types of Surface Grinders, Planer Type Surface Grinder, Rotary Type Surface Grinder Surface grinding machines are divided in to two major groups according to the shape of the table and how it moves. 1. Planer Type Surface Grinder This machine makes use of a reciprocating motion to move the work table (which is rectangular in shape) back and forth under the grinding wheel.

(ii) Horizontal spindle using the rim of a (recessed or cupped) Wheel.
(iii) Vertical spindle using the rim of a (recessed occupied) wheel.
Planner type surface grinding is illustrated.

2. Rotary Type Surface Grinder The machines in this category have circular work tables which revolve under the rotating grinding wheel. The rotary type is divided as follows:
(i) Horizontal spindle using the periphery of the wheel.
(ii) Vertical spindle using the rim of a (recessed or cupped) wheel
