Sphere, Cylinder, and Ball Grinding Machines

Centerless Form Grinding Machines for Balls, Spheres, and Cylindrical Components

Glebar developed ball grinding for the golf ball industry in the 1960s using centerless grinding fundamentals. The process was adapted to grind deodorant balls and other spherical or cylindrically shaped components. Glebar machines can grind most hard-to-turn materials such as carbon fiber, fiberglass, and polypropylene.
