Course Description
Tschudin Academy provides structured access to the principles and technologies behind modern centerless grinding, with a clear focus on flexibility, reliability, and stable production performance.
Through a combination of concise one-pagers, structured lesson modules, and in-depth presentations, the course explains how machine design, patented kinematics, process control, and data readiness enable flexible manufacturing, high availability, and robust grinding processes across a wide range of applications.
The content is organized in progressive modules, starting with fundamentals and expanding into parts, processes, machine components, and workpiece behavior. Additional modules and video-based lessons will be added over time.
The course delivers practical, experience-driven knowledge for professionals who require predictable results, reliable processes, and low total cost of ownership in demanding production environments.

- Module 2 – Parts & Applications in Centerless Grinding - Coming soonThis module introduces the types of components produced by centerless grinding and the industries in which they are used. You will learn which part geometries are best suited for centerless grinding and why the process is ideal for high-volume, high-precision production across automotive, bearings, medical, energy, and robotics applications.0
- Module 3 – Centerless Grinding Overview - Coming soonThis module provides a clear overview of the centerless grinding process. It explains how parts are supported and machined without clamping, introduces the grinding wheel, regulating wheel, and work blade, and outlines the fundamental machine movements that define modern centerless grinding kinematics.0
- Module 4 – Centerless Grinding Processes - Coming soonThis module explains the two core centerless grinding methods: plunge (in-feed) grinding and through-feed grinding. You will learn how each process works, which part types they are used for, and how machine kinematics and wheel geometry influence material removal and part flow.0
- Module 5 – Workpiece Positioning & Stability - Coming soonThis module focuses on how the workpiece is positioned, supported, and stabilized during centerless grinding. It explains the role of the work blade, regulating wheel, and friction forces, and shows how correct positioning is essential for roundness, process stability, and repeatable quality.0
- Module 6 – Machine Components & Kinematics - Coming soonThis module introduces the main components of a centerless grinding machine and their functions. You will learn how grinding spindles, regulating spindles, dressing systems, machine axes, and structural design influence precision, availability, and long-term process stability.0
