Grinding to remove surface defects from billets after thermal treatment, which leaves microscopic cracks and oxidised spots on the surface. This serves as a basis for further ultrasonic testing. The removal of any defects is either performed selectively by spot grinding, or by a complete surface treatment (face grinding).

A Centro Maskin 3 is used for grinding large workpieces and ingots. The grinding table is composed of two parts and can adapt to any dimension. It is a double head grinder which means that both top as well as lateral surface of a workpiece can be treated.

Grinding is used to create a flat surface or to produce very fine finishes and accurate dimensions and consequently can help produce high-quality treated surfaces.
