Select the appropriate grinding method according to the production volume! Easily achieve VA/VE for parts.
We will introduce a case that achieved cost reduction by switching from cylindrical grinding to centerless grinding. For products with a ring shape and a small production lot size, we process them on cylindrical grinding machines, which have relatively short setup times, to avoid cost increases due to setup changes. However, there are products that lack sufficient grinding power due to factors such as the size of the grinding wheel on cylindrical grinding machines, which can ultimately lead to increased costs. As the quantity of the parts to be processed increases, it becomes necessary to consider alternative grinding methods. [Before Improvement] ■ There are products on cylindrical grinding machines that lack sufficient grinding power due to factors such as the size of the grinding wheel. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

![[Grinding Case Studies] Responding to mass production, low cost, and high quality!](https://image.mono.ipros.com/public/catalog/image_generated/01/485/357582/357582_IPROS831709621877312351_1.jpg?w=120&h=170)
Company information
KONISHI Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has been providing products to the world market with ball bearings under the trademark name "MRK." "Precision machining" and "mass production" are fundamental concepts for the manufacturing industry, yet they are being reexamined in light of the harsh realities that constantly demand speed and cost reduction. In the midst of changing values and diversifying needs, how we can enhance customer satisfaction and trust is a significant challenge and driving force for us. We believe that thorough quality control, improvements in work efficiency, a flexible system that introduces new information and technologies as needed, and above all, a customer-centric mindset will lead to new possibilities. We are actively working on "small lots" and "short delivery times," focusing on building a system that meets current needs and turning customer proposals into reality.
