SUPPORT GRINDERS
Versatile in its application.
Versatile in its applications.
The support grinder can be used as a standalone tool or as a support tool. Its ease of use makes it ideal for many applications and indispensable for:
Machining of small to large and bulky workpieces - the production of turning and grinding operations in a single clamping - the grinding of individual parts
the application in mold making
grinding rubber and plastics
dressing of diamond and borazone grinding wheels
the surface, cutting and tool grinding
Performance, precision

More information
Turning and grinding without reclamping – the advantages:
Highest dimensional and shape accuracy
No re-clamping, therefore no position or reference point fields.
Optimized concentricity and improved precision
All processing steps in the same reference system
Reduced sources of error
No realignment or incorrect retensioning
Significant time savings
Less setup time and shorter lead times
Frequently Asked Questions
A support grinder is a grinding device for lathes that allows grinding operations to be carried out directly on the clamped workpiece .
The lathe is extended with a grinding spindle , allowing turning and grinding operations to be combined in a single clamping . The workpiece remains clamped in the machine throughout the entire machining process.
In practical terms, this means:
no clamping errors and therefore higher dimensional and concentricity accuracy
Option for fine machining of mating surfaces, bearing seats and shafts
Time savings , as no machine change is required.
In short:
A support grinder enables precise grinding directly on the lathe – for higher accuracy and more efficient machining in one process.Yes. The support grinder can be used for both internal and external grinding.
Depending on the design, the grinding spindle can be adjusted accordingly, so that different grinding operations can be performed with the same unit.The change between external and internal grinding is usually achieved without complex spindle modifications, which significantly increases flexibility in use.
In practical terms, this means:
a system for multiple grinding applications
No additional machine or separate grinding equipment is necessary.
quick changeover and reduced setup times
In short:
A support grinder enables both internal and external grinding – flexibly, efficiently and directly on the machine.The support grinder is suitable for a wide variety of workpieces, especially where high dimensional and surface accuracy is required.
Typical areas of application include:
small to large workpieces of varying sizes
rotationally symmetrical components such as shafts, journals or bearing seats
Workpieces with precise fitting surfaces or function-critical geometries
Components made of metal, rubber or plastics
Due to its design, the support grinder is particularly suitable for:
Individual parts and small series
Reworking and corrective grinding directly on the machine
Applications where turning and grinding in a single setup makes sense
In short:
The support grinder is versatile and suitable for all workpieces where fine machining, precise fits and high surface quality are required.Yes. The support grinder can also be used for dressing grinding wheels.
This allows diamond and CBN grinding wheels to be selectively reworked to restore the grinding wheel to the desired shape and cutting ability.In practical terms, this means:
Restoring the profile accuracy of the grinding wheel
Ensuring a uniform grinding effect
Improvement of surface quality and dimensional accuracy of the workpiece
In short:
The support grinder is not only suitable for machining workpieces, but also for dressing grinding wheels – as an important component of a stable and precise grinding process.Generally, no extensive modifications are required.
The support grinder is mounted as an additional unit directly on the support of the lathe and can be integrated into existing machine concepts.Depending on the machine, the attachment is done via existing mounts or adapted brackets.
In practical terms, this means:
rapid deployment without fundamental machine modifications
flexible retrofitting of existing lathes
minimal interventions in the existing machine structure
In short:
The support grinder can be integrated into existing machines with minimal effort and can be used without extensive modifications.For the use of a support grinder , mechanical stability and clean running conditions are particularly crucial.
Important requirements are:
sufficient rigidity of the machine
low natural frequency component
A properly aligned and maintained machine
suitable clamping and holding options
In practical terms, this means:
The machine does not have to be new, but it must be in good technical condition.
The quality of the grinding result depends directly on the machine base.
In short:
The more stable and clean the machine runs, the more precise the grinding result.
Here's what our customers say
As a maintenance department, we particularly benefit from the ease of use of the support grinding machine. The quick change between external and internal grinding without changing the spindle saves valuable setup time and makes the repair of shafts and bearings significantly more efficient.
Maintenance manager, machine tool manufacturing, 300 employees
In our maintenance department, every minute of downtime counts. With the Deuschle support grinding machine, we can precisely rework worn bearing and shaft seats directly on the machine. Its high accuracy and flexible application help us to significantly reduce downtime and increase plant availability.
Head of Maintenance, international automotive supplier
For us, the versatility of the support grinding unit was the deciding factor. Whether for planned maintenance or short-notice repairs, the system can be deployed quickly and reliably delivers precise grinding results directly on the machine. This reduces external effort and gives us valuable flexibility in maintenance.
