High-performance Grinding

QUICKPOINT's great advantage: This technology can be used for a wide range of combined applications with extremely high productivity. Compared with conventional OD grinding - especially when grinding Tungsten Carbide - the QUICKPOINT method can increase productivity by up to 600%!

The QUICKPOINT Concept

QUICKPOINT grinding is a high-speed “peel grinding” process based on point contact between the grinding wheel and the work piece. The QUICKPOINT process requires wear resistant CBN or diamond grinding wheels which are typically only a few millimeters wide. Tilting the abrasive wheel to the horizontal workpiece axis creates a relief angle that reduces the contact zone between the abrasive wheel and workpiece from a contact line to a contact point.
