Our vertical single disc grinding machines are accurate and reliable with exceptional stiffness. Available with an ID or OD clamping system, they are engineered to ensure exceptionally tight squareness and high efficiency.
Vertical single disc grinding – optimum efficiency, maximum precision
The machines’ cast iron structure ensures excellent stiffness, for high precision and high stock removal. Our vertical single disc machines are ideal for flat surface grinding of gears, rotors and other workpieces that require precise squareness.
Our VSD grinders can also be equipped with multi-component clamping, to further reduce cycle time and optimize productivity.

Gardner or Giustina grinding machines will be proposed according to the standards in the specific geographical areas.
Flexibility, with a small footprint
Our vertical single disc grinding machines have a small footprint and a completely modular setup. As a result, these flexible systems can be engineered to meet your specific grinding requirements.
Superior machine rigidity with exceptional parallelism and flatness
Additional keys benefits include:
- A high resistance cast iron machine structure
- Grinding wheel movement that is servo-controlled
- CBN, diamond or conventional grinding wheels
- Automatic or manual loading/unloading system
- Engineered clamping system
