Precision Grinding Demands Strict Process Control
Custom components become challenging when conventional turning or milling cannot achieve the required micro-level flatness, precise parallelism, or when processing fully hardened tool steels and tungsten carbide.
At Sundi MFG, we don’t just turn on a grinder. Before production starts, we thoroughly evaluate the material hardness, required tolerances, grinding wheel selection, and coolant strategy to prevent heat distortion and surface micro-cracking.
To meet strict dimensional requirements, we integrate Surface Grinding, Profile Grinding, and Cylindrical Grinding. When necessary, we combine these with our in-house CNC and EDM capabilities to deliver flawless cutting edges and consistent quality.
Grinding Capabilities
At Sundi MFG, we provide a complete range of precision grinding capabilities to support custom tooling components, carbide wear parts, hardened steel dies, and complex metal fixtures. From achieving absolute flatness via surface grinding to crafting intricate micro-contours through Optical Profile Grinding (PG), our grinding processes ensure strict dimensional tolerances, mirror-like surface finishes, and flawless cutting edges for both prototypes and repeat production.

Achieving Tight Tolerances in Precision Grinding
In high-precision tooling and semiconductor packaging, standard machining tolerances are often not enough. At Sundi MFG, our advanced grinding processes are dedicated to achieving the final critical dimensions of your most demanding components. We routinely hold dimensional tolerances down to ±0.002 mm and deliver mirror-like surface finishes, ensuring perfect assembly fit, precise die clearance, and extended tool life.
| Dimension / Feature | Typical Tolerances (Metric) | Typical Tolerances (Imperial) |
|---|---|---|
| Length | ± 0.002 mm | ± 0.00008 inches |
| Width | ± 0.002 mm | ± 0.00008 inches |
| Height/Thickness | ± 0.002 mm | ± 0.00008 inches |
| Diameter (for cylindrical parts) | ± 0.002 mm | ± 0.00008 inches |
| Flatness | 0.002 mm per 100 mm | 0.00008 inches per 4 inches |
| Parallelism | 0.002 mm per 100 mm | 0.00008 inches per 4 inches |
| Surface Finish | 8-16 microinches (0.2-0.4 micrometers) RA | Same as Metric |

Why We Provide Engineer-Reviewed Quotes
EDM pricing depends on material, thickness, tolerance, surface finish, hole size, machining path, and part complexity. That is why we do not rely on automatic online pricing. Every drawing is reviewed by our engineering team before quotation, so we can provide a more accurate price, realistic lead time, and suitable machining plan.
Our Ordering Process
We are a direct-to-factory manufacturer, not a brokered quote platform. Every component is engineered, machined, and inspected in-house at Sundi. This ensures complete control over technical precision, production lead times, and data security from your initial drawing to final delivery.

Precision Grinding Services FAQs
What drawing formats do you accept?
For the most accurate quotation, please provide 3D CAD files (STEP, IGES, SolidWorks) to evaluate complex geometries, along with 2D drawings (PDF, DWG, DXF) clearly calling out specific grinding tolerances, surface finish requirements (e.g., Ra values), and material hardness.
What is the maximum material hardness you can grind?
We specialize in machining ultra-hard materials. Utilizing advanced diamond and CBN grinding wheels, we routinely process fully hardened tool steels (HRC 60+), Tungsten Carbide, and even custom PCBN/PCD inserts, ensuring efficient material removal without causing heat distortion or metallurgical damage.
What dimensional tolerances can your grinding process achieve?
Depending on the material and specific part geometry, our advanced surface grinding and optical profile grinding (PG) centers can hold critical dimensional tolerances down to ±0.002mm. We ensure exact parallelism, flatness, and perfect die clearances for your high-precision tooling.
Do you support small batch or single-piece custom grinding?
Yes, we have no strict Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ). We support everything from single-piece engineering prototypes to low-volume replacement parts for semiconductor trim and form dies and industrial cutting tools.
What information is needed for a fast grinding quote?
To provide a fast and accurate quote within 8 hours, please send your drawings along with the desired material grade, required heat treatment/hardness, batch quantity, and any specific surface coating requirements.
Do you provide quality inspection reports before shipping?
Absolutely. Every ground component undergoes rigorous inspection using our in-house Zeiss Bridge CMMs and Nikon Profile Projectors. We can provide full dimensional inspection reports and material certifications upon request to guarantee zero-defect delivery.
