Flow grinding

Flow grinding, also known as hydro-erosive machining, is a process for refining and smoothing workpiece surfaces. In this process, an abrasive liquid is passed through the workpiece or along its surface at high speed. The abrasive particles in the liquid remove small amounts of material from the surface due to the intensive material contact.

This leads to uniform smoothing and improved surface quality. Flow grinding is particularly advantageous for complex geometries and areas that are difficult to access, as the abrasive liquid reaches even the narrowest and most angled areas. This process is often used to remove burrs and polish internal contours.

The precise and controlled removal not only improves the surface structure, but also optimizes the functionality and service life of the components. Flow grinding is therefore an important technology in the manufacturing industry to ensure high-quality, high-performance products.
