How Can Creep-Feed Grinding Help You?
Simplify Manufacturing and Reduce Production Costs
Large amounts of stock can be quickly removed from hardened material, eliminating the time consuming and costly process of milling or broaching, deburring, straightening and finish grinding.
Improve Part Quality
- Tolerances to tenths can be held in production.
- Distortion is eliminated during heat treating because parts are ground after hardening.
- Improved fatigue resistance results from mild residual compressive stresses.

Shorter Lead Times, Lower Inventory
Fewer manufacturing steps shortens lead times and reduces need for work in process and finished goods inventory.
Can Be Used On Any Material
All steels, alloys, and ceramics can be ground. Creep-feed grinding is especially well suited to superalloys and other difficult to machine materials.
Well suited to High Volume Production
Short cycle time can be achieved by combining innovative fixturing with creep-feed's ability to machine finished depths in one pass, making it a very efficient method of producing high volume parts.
