For example; • Precision or die grinding • Rough grinding and cutting off • Surface grinding (sanding and polishing) Grinding Technique is understanding why material is removed, how the work should be done and the equipment used, to know each application, tool types, abrasives, and attachments and accessories. Grinding Technique is productivity, good grinding economy is essential to the overall productivity.
