What is ID Grinding?

ID grinding, also known as internal grinding, inside diameter grinding, inner diameter grinding, or bore grinding, is a precision machining operation in which the workpiece is held in place by a collet that also rotates the object in place. As with other types of cylindrical grinding, the workpiece and the grinding wheel rotate in opposite directions.

What is an ID Grinder Used for?

ID grinding is well-suited for removing a wide range of materials from straight, formed, and tapered workpieces.

Regardless of the type of workpiece, our remanufactured and rebuilt ID grinders are known for their capability to hold ultra-tight tolerances on bores, angles, and faces. Our attention to detail ensures that every ID grinder is hand scraped and machined to better-than-new condition. Grinder rebuilds from GCH Machinery play an integral role in a wide range of operations, ranging from job shops to high-production manufacturers.

We also remanufacture and rebuild OD grinders, as well as universal ID/OD grinder models.
