Centerless grinding uses purpose-built centerless grinding machines. Such a machine will always include the grinding wheel, regulating wheel, and some means of supporting a workpiece. Modern machines may involve computer numerical control to allow automation and improve precision.
Precision centerless grinding is one of several machining processes that use abrasive cutting to remove material from a part (workpiece). The process involves the part being supported on a workpiece rest blade that sits between two rotating cylinders:
Centerless grinding is a subtractive process that uses an abrasive wheel to cut material from a workpiece’s external diameter to achieve desired properties. A centerless grinding machine usually comprises a grinding wheel, work blade, machine base, and regulating wheel.

The Centerless Grinder is capable of grinding circular work-pieces which do not have centers on its two faces. The centerless grinding machine eliminates the need for center holes, drivers, and other holding devices or fixtures to hold the workpiece.
Centerless Grinding Machines. From manual to fully automated, our modular GT-610 Series of precision Infeed/Thrufeed Centerless Grinders are able to remove more material faster, and with better surface finishes, than competing machines.
Centerless grinding is successfully applied to manufacture of parts ranging from hypodermic needles to bowling balls. The principles of the process remain the same regardless of the workpiece. Like most metalworking processes, centerless grinding is not magic, if you understand the fundamentals.
Centerless grinding is a precise and efficient machining process used to remove material from a workpiece without the use of a grinding machine. This process is ideal for cylindrical and bar grinding, resulting in an excellent surface finish and tight tolerance.
