A Face Driver for Grinding is a precision workholding device used in cylindrical grinding operations to drive components between centers. By transmitting torque through drive pins or blades on the workpiece face, it ensures true concentric rotation, zero slippage, and high grinding accuracy—making it ideal for applications requiring excellent roundness, cylindricity, and surface finish.
A Face Driver for Grinding is a precision workholding device used in cylindrical grinding operations where components are machined between centers.
Instead of clamping the job externally, the face driver drives the component through drive pins or blades that engage with the face of the workpiece, ensuring true concentric rotation, zero slippage, and excellent grinding accuracy.
Face drivers are essential for high-precision grinding where roundness, cylindricity, and surface finish are critical.
Applications
Face Drivers for Grinding are widely used in:
Key Features
Working Principle
The face driver mounts on the grinding machine spindle.
When the job is supported between centers, spring-loaded or fixed drive pins/blades engage the face of the component and transmit torque from the spindle—allowing accurate rotation while the centers maintain alignment.
