The difference between centerless grinder and round tube polishing machine


Although both centerless grinder and round tube polishing machine are cylindrical and round tube workpiece processing equipment, their working principles and processing purposes are obviously different. In this article, we will introduce their differences in detail.

1. Difference in working principle

The working principle of centerless grinder is to use grinding abrasive to process the surface of workpiece. The abrasive rotates or vibrates on the grinder to grind the surface of workpiece at high speed to achieve smooth and precise purpose. The working principle of round tube polishing machine is to use motor to drive the sanding belt and polishing wheel to rotate, and polish the surface with polishing paste to obtain mirror-like effect. It is more of a surface treatment of metal without the need to remove material significantly


2. Difference in processing objects

Centerless grinder is suitable for the processing of precision metal parts, such as molds, automobile bearings, piston rods, cylindrical metal parts and other precision mechanical parts. The round tube polishing machine is suitable for polishing the surface of plastic products, glass products, ceramic products, metal products and other materials, such as decorative tubes, metal furniture, railings and other metal round tubes and round bars

3. The difference in processing effect

The surface processed by the centerless grinder is relatively rough, but its processing accuracy is high, and the parallelism and roundness of the processed surface can meet relatively high requirements. The surface processed by the round tube polishing machine is smooth and can obtain a very bright visual effect.


4. Other differences

The centerless grinder usually takes a long processing time to complete the processing of a workpiece, and the processing process requires continuous cooling to prevent the workpiece from deformation or thermal cracking. The processing time of the round tube polishing machine is relatively short, and polishing paste needs to be used during the processing to achieve better results. The above is the difference between the centerless grinder and the round tube polishing machine. They each have unique process characteristics and application fields. In industrial manufacturing, we need to choose suitable machines and equipment for processing according to specific processing needs.


In short, centerless grinders are more suitable for precision machining and are suitable for areas that require product accuracy, while round tube polishing machines focus more on surface treatment and aesthetics and are widely used in metal decoration industry.
