Maximum seating of the Flanges on machine spindles is ensured by proper grinding and lapping of the taper bore in the Flanges. Also the circular out step on the Flanges are machined so as to perfectly sit on the corresponding in steps of grinding wheels and thus, ensure proper clamping of grinding wheels and thus, ensure proper clamping of grinding wheels to the Flanges. Three adjustable balancing pieces are provided on the Flanges.
Keeping grinding wheels pre-fitted with Flanges will result in quicker change- over of wheels and thus improved productivity.
