For heavy-duty work, a bench grinder or pedestal grinder is commonly used. These types of grinders are designed for industrial applications and can handle more demanding tasks. They are characterized by their robust construction, powerful motors, and larger grinding wheels, allowing them to efficiently remove material and withstand continuous use. Bench grinders and pedestal grinders are versatile tools suitable for various applications, including sharpening, shaping, grinding, and polishing.
When choosing a grinder for heavy-duty work, consider the following features:
Motor Power: Opt for a grinder with a high horsepower motor to provide the necessary torque for heavy grinding tasks.
Wheel Size: A larger grinding wheel diameter allows for more surface area coverage and faster material removal.
Construction: Look for a grinder with a sturdy and durable construction to withstand heavy use in industrial settings.
Adjustability: Some grinders come with adjustable tool rests and spark guards, providing flexibility for different applications.
Coolant System: For continuous heavy grinding, a grinder with a built-in coolant system helps prevent overheating and ensures consistent performance.
Dust Collection: Consider a grinder with effective dust collection features to maintain a cleaner and safer working environment.
Wheel Type: Choose the appropriate grinding wheel type for the specific material you are working with, such as aluminum oxide or silicon carbide or diamond grinding wheels.
