    On Site Taper Grind 

    NTE can provide our customers with on site taper grinds. This is an option that we offer customers who can not afford downtime. It is a quick fix to an untimely situation. We can grind tapers in horizontal and vertical machines. Taper grinds usually take 4 – 8 hours depending on the damage and size of the taper.  When the customer has scheduled down time it is recommended that they send the spindle in for a full rebuild.
     
    Please note : A minimum of 21 inches between the taper and table is required for grinding purposes. In house taper grinds are not recommended for Big Plus and HSK tapers.
