CNC Grinding Machines

CNC grinding is essential for applications requiring exceptional surface finish, complex geometries and tight dimensional control. By combining grinding and milling within a single machine platform, advanced grinding solutions significantly reduce cycle times while maintaining high levels of precision. This approach is particularly suited to aerospace, die and mould, medical and other high-specification engineering sectors.

Makino Grinding and Viper Technology

NCMT is a Europe-wide distributor of advanced grinding solutions from Makino.

Makino grinding machines integrate high-performance milling and grinding within one highly capable machining centre. When combined with Viper Grinding software and process control strategies, manufacturers benefit from:

  • Significant reduction in part cycle times
  • Reduced non-cut and set-up time
  • Improved tool management
  • Greater process stability and repeatability

Viper technology optimises grinding parameters to maximise material removal rates while maintaining superior surface finish and dimensional accuracy, particularly in demanding aerospace applications.
