The new technology available in finishing today is now present at Linn Gear Co. with the
purchase of a new Studer CNC cylindrical grinder. Our capabilities and quality have
dramatically increased. We can now provide precision ground surfaces while maintaining
the tightest tolerances and surface finishes. The CNC processor controls both external
and internal grinding operations. This allows concave and convex radius grinding,
ground tapers, shoulders, and faces at an affordable cost. CNC control also means
excellent repeatability on multiple piece orders.
Along with the Studer we have recently added a Sunnen electronically controlled honing
machine for holding tighter tolerances and faster deliveries.
With this equipment added to our previous grinding capabilities our specialists can
perform most grinding operations at our shop. This way no “send-out” delays occur.
In addition to ID/OD and surface grinding we do grinding of spur and helical gear teeth
and worm threads as well. See the Tooth Cutting Processes page for more information.
Make sure to look below at the incredible accuracy the Studer is capable of!
