Surface Grinder for Mold Making and Die Grinding

Manual models use handwheels for crossfeed and vertical positioning, giving the operator direct tactile control — ideal for skilled machinists doing precision work. Automatic models, like the ASDIII series, include a Delta PLC conversational digital controller with a 7.2" color touch screen, programmable head positioning, and servo-driven axes for repeatable, high-volume production grinding.

Yes. Clausing CSG grinders feature high-grade cast iron construction with reinforced honeycomb ribbing for vibration dampening, Turcite B-coated ways for precision and wear resistance, and preloaded angular contact spindle bearings — all critical for the tight tolerances required in mold making, die grinding, and precision toolroom applications.

The Clausing CSG series offers spindle motor power ranging from 2 hp to 7.5 hp depending on the model. Smaller table models typically use 2–3 hp motors, while larger machines with tables up to 20" x 40" are equipped with up to 7.5 hp spindle motors to support heavy-duty grinding operations with larger wheel diameters.

The CSG series accommodates grinding wheel diameters from 8" to 14", widths from 0.5" to 2", and bore sizes from 1.25" to 5". The CSG3A1224, for example, uses a 12" diameter wheel with a 1.25" width and 3" bore as standard. Always verify compatibility with the specific model before selecting a replacement or alternative wheel.

All Clausing CSG surface grinders require three-phase power at either 230 or 460 volts. Single-phase power is not supported. If your facility operates on a different voltage standard, a transformer will be required. It is recommended to confirm your facility's electrical supply before placing an order to ensure proper installation.
