Supplementary technical lectures will follow these demonstrations so attendees can further explore the new grinding frontier.



Other key topics of discussions at the event will include how in-process and post-process gauging, automation, software, coolant, abrasive technology and preventive maintenance play important roles in optimizing the overall grinding process.
