AUTOMOTIVE
Automotive Development and Manufacturing is one of the most demanding industry for reliable, maintainable, high performance machinery, with cost quality and productivity requirements. Grind Master is a trusted partner for the leading Automotive OEMs and Component/System Manufacturers globally.
Grind Master solutions NANOFINISH and Deburr are used across the Automotive industry in Powertrain, Steering, Suspension, Chassis and Body Systems from 2 wheelers to heavy trucks. In particular Grind Master is a global supplier in Automotive Powertrain.
Greenhouse emissions and Energy efficiency are the critical aspects pushing the limits of Powertrain Engineering in Automotive industry. ‘Lightweighting’ and ‘friction reduction’ are two key strategies in this aspect. Deploying both strategies makes designers of Powertrain resort to stringent surface finish parameters on Critical powertrain components such as Crankshafts, Camshafts, Gearbox shafts etc. NANOFINISH range of machines including Microfinishing and Superfinishing machines cater to this requirement. Over 10 Million Crankshafts have been polished on Microfinishing Machines Manufactured by Grind Master. Grind Master NANOFINISH range of machines have Dominant market share in India, and a significant market share in China.
Variants of NANOFINISH range are used in Steering System components such as Steering Rack Bar Polishing. Both Metal finish range of machines as well as certain NANOFINISH models are used for Suspension and Shock Absorbed components.
Our Deburring range of machines includes Advanced Gear Chamfering/Deburring machines used in Automotive Gears, as well as Brush Deburring Machine used for various flat parts such as Clutch/Brake parts and Compressor parts. For complex components our Automation solutions are deployed such as Crankshaft Deburring, Cylinder Head and Block Deburring.
Mission Critical operations not only need a good reliable machine but a mastery over the process. With over 500 machines in Automotive, Grind Master not only offers a complete solution package for our trusted partners, but also process development and R&D capability that enables partners to improve their products.
