Our Steel Grinding Process

We begin by reviewing your specifications and identifying the best approach for your project. Once confirmed, your materials are processed using specialised Lumsden grinding equipment designed to deliver clean, flat results. Every piece is then checked for quality before being securely packaged for delivery. Our aim is to make the entire process smooth and straightforward, so you can focus on the next phase of production.

What is Lumsden Grinding?

Lumsden grinding is a form of rotary surface grinding that uses a vertical spindle and rotating magnetic table to achieve flat and uniform surfaces on steel plates. It is particularly effective for larger or heavier steel components where flatness and consistency are vital. The method is widely recognised for its ability to remove scale and deliver a smooth, clean finish across materials of varying thickness.

Advantages of Lumsden Grinding

Lumsden grinding offers a number of advantages, particularly for projects that require a consistent, high-quality surface finish. One of its biggest benefits is the ability to achieve excellent flatness and uniform thickness across larger surface areas, making it ideal for steel base plates, machine parts and structural components. It’s a fast and efficient process that can remove mill scale, surface defects and excess material in a single operation, reducing the need for secondary machining.
