I have rewritten the content. Had lifted something that is very general information from a website. Sorry if it was a copyright violation. Panchhee 09:56, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Merger with Centreless grinding
These articles are about the same thing and should be merged. Iepeulas (talk) 01:54, 6 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I see that this has been done and there is now a redirect from centreless grinding to centerless grinding. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wilhkar (talk • contribs) 22:31, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

What Is It?
I logged on to this article to understand what "centerless grinding" is. I am thinking to buy some steel rod, and "centerless ground" sounds scary. Is it crooked? Close enough is good enough? It was VERY reassuring to learn that CG is the same as centered grinding but without a spindle, whatever that means, but if you do not already know what centerless grinding is, you will never find out from this article. Great picture too. Huh? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.247.231.26 (talk) 19:31, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

schematic
The wheels on the schematic are labeled "moving" and "stationary," while the nomenclature in the text is "regulating wheel" and "grinding wheel." This should be cleared up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wilhkar (talk • contribs) 22:30, 15 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Just so I'm clear you want the text in the image to be updated to "regulating wheel" and "grinding wheel", correct? If so I can fix it easily. Wizard191 (talk) 15:23, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

The part to be ground is shown directly on center with the grinding wheel and regulating wheel, if this is done the part will literally be ground triangular. The drawing must be shown with the part to be ground ABOVE center, and in few cases below center. Please fix this! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.15.201.228 (talk) 13:28, 19 February 2010 (UTC)


 * ref for above statement. I will fix this when I get a chance. Wizard191 (talk) 16:39, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Advantages of fully centerless ground drill bits?
I see this 'fully centerless ground' in descriptions of drill bits in some tool catalogs as if it were something special. Is there any advantage to this type of manufacture? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.85.134.8 (talk) 22:04, 5 April 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm assuming that means the whole tool bit is centerless ground, so maybe it runs truer. For future reference please ask these questions at the reference desk.


 * Although machining is a tertiary interest (for one, my father designed machine tools during WW II at Heald in Worcester Mass.), I gather from decades of widespread curiosity that, properly done (we assume!), centerless-ground parts are superior to those "center-ground". I'm assuming that roundness and straightness are both better. (As well, the article could well be enhanced by description of non-cylindrical finished shapes.)
