Single-Chuck Grinding - Versatile Efficiency

The TG4 Series maximizes throughput and accuracy through a fully integrated one-chuck grinding process. By eliminating the need to reposition or turn the workpiece, this system significantly reduces setup time, enhances concentricity, and maintains consistent part geometry throughout the entire cycle. The result is faster production, improved surface quality, and lower equipment costs—ideal for high-volume manufacturers demanding precision and efficiency in every operation.

Simplified Setup

Simplified Setup

The TG4 Series streamlines production with a multi-step machining process that combines several operations into a single setup. This integrated approach reduces the need for secondary equipment, minimizes operator intervention, and shortens total cycle time. By simplifying setup and part handling, the TG4 enhances production efficiency, repeatability, and overall machine utilization, delivering more output with fewer resources.


Ideal Wheel Mounting, Minimal Interference

The JTEKT TG4 Series features an optimized wheel mounting configuration that minimizes obstructions between the wheel, workhead, and tailstock. This intelligent design prevents component interference during grinding, ensuring uninterrupted tool access and smoother part transitions. The result is greater machining flexibility, improved part clearance, and enhanced efficiency when performing complex or multi-angle grinding operations—all while maintaining JTEKT’s signature precision and reliability.
