Buy used grinding machines
Grinding machines ensure the final, crucial precision in the manufacturing process. Our inventory includes used surface grinding machines, cylindrical grinding machines, and... Tool grinding machines — from tool repair to high-precision series production.
Since dimensional accuracy and smooth running are particularly important in grinding, we carefully check the spindle running, guides and the condition of the grinding wheel mount of each machine before it is included in the catalog.
Here you will find our current selection of used machines in this category. Grinding machines – Available immediately and directly from our stock. Use the filters to quickly find the right machine.
Tell us your specifications – we will contact you as soon as a suitable machine becomes available.

Surface, cylindrical and tool grinding compared
Surface grinding machines produce flat, parallel surfaces and are used in tool and mold making as well as in maintenance. Cylindrical grinding machines process cylindrical workpieces such as shafts, bolts, and spindles—as external, internal, or centerless machines. Tool grinding machines are specialized for resharpening and manufacturing precision tools and often pay for themselves quickly in companies with high tool consumption.
What matters when buying used goods
- Maximum workpiece dimensions and table size
- Spindle runout and concentricity accuracy — the central criterion
- Condition of the guides and the hydraulic system
- Dressing device and its wear condition
- Control: manual, hydraulic or CNC
- Existing clamping devices, jigs and magnetic chucks
A well-maintained hydraulic system and smooth spindle operation say more about the condition of grinding machines than the year of manufacture.
Why used grinding machines are a good choice
Grinding machines typically don't run continuously, but are switched on for specific tasks. Consequently, the actual operating hours of many used machines are low. Solidly built machines from German and Swiss manufacturers still achieve accuracies even after decades that would cost many times more in a new machine.
If you grind gears after hardening, you will find specialised machines in our category Gear cutting machines; for pre-machining we offer used Lathes.
