Plant & machinery

The ORIX facility is planned around a dedicated line of grinding, lapping and packaging machines that covers every finishing stage of a ceramic bearing ring — from face and diameter grinding, through raceway lapping, to final packing.

01

Face Grinding

Surface Grinding Machine

Grinds the flat side faces of bearing rings to the required width, flatness and parallelism.

02

Face Grinding

Duplex Grinding Machine

Grinds both sides of a component in a single set-up for consistent width and parallelism across a batch.

03

OD Grinding

Centerless Grinding Machine

Grinds the outside diameter of rings without centres, giving consistent size and roundness in volume production.

04

OD Grinding

External Grinding Machine

Precision cylindrical grinding of external diameters to close size, roundness and surface-finish limits.

05

Bore Grinding

Internal Grinding Machine

Grinds the bore and internal surfaces of rings to the specified diameter and geometry.

06

Raceway Finishing

Inner Track Lapping Machine

Laps the inner-ring raceway (inner track) to the specified surface finish and raceway geometry.

07

Raceway Finishing

Outer Track Lapping Machine

Laps the outer-ring raceway (outer track) for a fine surface finish, smooth rotation and low noise.

08

Packing & Dispatch

Packaging Machine

Seals finished, inspected bearings in protective film packs to keep them clean during storage and transit.

Machine types planned for the ORIX facility. Actual make, model, specifications and quantities as per supplier quotations.
