Centerless grinding is an OD grinding process where the workpiece is supported on its own OD by a work blade located between a high speed grinding wheel and a slower speed regulating wheel with a smaller diameter.

Benefits of centerless grinding:

Tight tolerances
Excellent surface finish
Excellent roundness
Excellent straightness
Less stock compared to between-center grinding
Little work deflection (allows for grinding of long parts)
Ease of automation
Lower cycle times
