Safety first

Improving the surface finish and dimensional accuracy of critical vehicle components, such as engine parts, transmission gears, steering system, and brakes is crucial for ensuring the safe and reliable operation of the vehicle. This makes precision grinding an essential process in the manufacturing of high-quality automotive components.

Precision Grinding in Automotive Manufacturing

Precision Grinding in Automotive Manufacturing

A high level of efficiency and quality in the production of all components in the automotive industry are essential, especially when it comes to the powertrain, steering systems, or brakes. Having recognized this, Meister Abrasives has developed high-performance superabrasive tools tailored to meet these specific and ever-increasing requirements.

We utilize first-class grinding raw materials, innovative bond systems, and sophisticated production methods, complemented by decades of industry experience, to ensure that our cutting-edge superabrasive tools for high-precision grinding are an industry benchmark.

Brake Discs

Brake Discs

To ensure that brake discs achieve their optimum performance and thus, guarantee maximum safety, they must have the right thickness, parallelism and surface finish. By using advanced grinding techniques and tools, manufacturers employing Meister Abrasives’ grinding wheels can achieve the necessary accuracy and consistency required for high-quality brake discs.

 

Coated Brake Discs

Coated Brake Discs

Stricter regulations aimed at reducing particulate matter emissions, prompt the automotive industry to find innovative solutions in order to ensure compliance with future requirements. In that context, the use of coated brake discs becomes increasingly popular due to their ability to reduce wear and improve overall braking performance. By utilizing hard material coatings, such as tungsten carbide or titanium carbide, the wear of the brake discs is substantially decreased, hence, reducing the fine dust particles released during braking.

Drawing upon its extensive experience in processing hard materials and coatings, Meister Abrasives is making a valuable contribution to these new advancements by providing high precision superabrasive solutions to grind that new generation of brake discs. To reach the required surface quality of the brake discs’ coating, our team of engineers and process experts has been developing new technologies and wheel designs through which optimized cost per part, cycle times, and total process costs can be optimized. By employing state-of-the-art technology and a deep understanding of coating materials, Meister Abrasives provides innovative solutions to meet the high demands of the automotive industry and advance the development of future technologies.

Fuel Injection Technology

Fuel Injection Technology

With decades of experience in the development and manufacturing of high precision superabrasive tools for fuel injection, Meister Abrasives has mastered the art of meeting strict surface quality and workpiece geometry requirements. Achieving these narrow tolerances can only be accomplished by matching a grinding and a dressing tool designed specifically for these applications. Prioritizing low grinding forces is paramount when machining long bores, and our innovative internal cooling tools are the benchmark in needle seat machining.

Transmission and Engine Components

Transmission and Engine Components

In the quest for noise and fuel consumption reduction, the requirements for the geometry and finish of transmission and engine components are becoming increasingly stringent. Precision grinding plays a central role in meeting these demands, and Meister Abrasives' grinding and dressing tools play an essential part in achieving these high standards.

Constant Velocity Joints (CVJ)
