Abrasive West applies creep-feed and precision grinding expertise across sectors that demand accuracy, repeatability, and performance on tough materials.
Aeroderivative Components
Grinding of turbine blades and seals in nickel-based superalloys. Extensive experience with fir-tree roots (dovetails), platforms, and root ends delivers consistent profile accuracy and repeatable quality.
Industrial Gas Turbines (IGT)
High stock removal on heat-resistant alloys while maintaining tight tolerances, excellent surface finish, and dimensional consistency on blades and seals.
Medical & Orthodontic
Precision slot grinding for complex, small-scale geometries requiring tight control and superior surface quality.
General Industrial
Slot, groove, and profile grinding in hardened steels, stainless steels, and carbide, providing a reliable alternative to milling, broaching, or EDM.
