AVOIDING THE BURN: The Causes and Prevention of Grinding Damage


Grinding damage, commonly referred to as burning, is a serious problem in gear manufacturing that commonly results in costly scrap. This can be a difficult problem to avoid because there are so many variables that can contribute to grinding damage.

Avoiding the Burn, a video-based training program, is presented in logical, short segments which carefully examine the problems associated with grinding damage.

Accompanying this program are a variety of support materials to facilitate either self-paced learning by individuals or larger groups in a classroom setting.

Upon completion of the training, the trainee will have increased awareness of the problem of grinding damage. In addition, they will understand a full range of the contributing factors, and how in turn, they can take measures to prevent grinding damage and reduce the occurrences of scrap.
