Internal cylindrical grinding of workpieces with high precision
CNC internal cylindrical grinding is a process that requires maximum precision. During internal cylindrical grinding, the insides of cylindrical components are machined in order to achieve an exact shape and surface. This grinding is particularly important when the requirements for dimensional accuracy and surface quality are very high. Regardless of whether individual parts or series production is involved, internal cylindrical grinding ensures highly precise results.
At SUSA S. Sauer GmbH & Co. KG, we offer internal cylindrical grinding as part of our comprehensive machining options. We manufacture turned parts according to your individual specifications. If you need components with particularly tight tolerances, internal cylindrical grinding is often the method of choice. With our modern equipment, we ensure that your parts are machined to perfection.

Frequently asked questions on the topic: Internal cylindrical grinding
What are the most important process parameters for internal grinding?
The decisive process parameters for internal grinding are:
- Cutting speed (vc): Influences the material removal rate and surface quality.
- Infeed (ae): Determines how much material is removed per grinding pass.
- Feed speed (vf): Regulates the processing time and influences the thermal load.
- Abrasive and grit: Decisive for cutting ability and surface quality.
- Cooling/lubricants: Prevents overheating and reduces grinding burn.
What are the advantages of internal grinding compared to other methods?
Internal grinding is characterized by the following advantages:
- Maximum dimensional accuracy: Enables tight tolerances in the µm range.
- Very good surface quality: Achieves values of Ra < 0.2 µm.
- Machining of hard materials: Suitable for hardened steels, ceramics and hard metals.
- High dimensional accuracy: Ideal for precise cylinder, cone and profile geometries.
- Efficient post-processing: Often used as the final processing step after turning or milling.
What challenges arise during internal grinding and how can they be solved?
Typical challenges and solutions:
- Vibrations (chatter marks): Use of vibration-damping grinding tools or reduction of the cutting speed.
- Grinding burn: Optimize cooling and reduce the thermal load by reducing the infeed.
- Uneven abrasion: Correct selection of abrasive grit and regular dressing of the grinding wheel.
- Workpiece deformation: Use of suitable clamping methods to minimize internal stresses.
- Short tool life: Selection of high-quality abrasive tools with an adapted bond and grain structure.
How does CNC internal grinding differ from conventional internal grinding?
CNC internal grinding offers significant advantages:
- Greater precision: Automatic correction of deviations and adaptive control of grinding parameters.
- Reproducibility: Ideal for series production, as every sanding process is identical.
- Integrated measuring technology: Inline measuring systems enable immediate corrections.
- Shorter set-up times: Programs for different workpieces can be saved and called up quickly.
- Processing of complex geometries: CNC technology enables contour and profile grinding to the highest standards.
Which tools and abrasives are used for internal grinding?
Various sanding tools and materials are used for internal sanding:
- CBN grinding wheels: High hardness, ideal for hardened steels and high-alloy materials.
- Diamond grinding wheels: Suitable for ceramics, carbide and glass.
- Corundum (aluminum oxide): Standard abrasive for general applications.
- Silicon carbide: Used for soft materials such as aluminum or brass.
- Hybrid and synthetic resin bonds: Improve service life and grinding behavior depending on the application.
