We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Grinding Wheels", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release GBP 500,000 spent on gear grinding facilities from Ricardo, which we summarised at the time by saying "Ricardo's new Hofler Promat 400kk gear grinding centre will enable the manufacture of more advanced designs at its UK Midlands Technical Centre". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Grinding wheels promise longer life from Tyrolit: "Sintered aluminium oxide grains in a vitrified-bond grinding wheel offer significant performance benefits over fused grains".
 
In July 2006, we covered the news from Castrol UK concerning its Variocut G600HC and G650HC - take a look at Neat oils are healthier option which says: "Castrol Industrial has introduced two new high performance neat oils to its grinding range".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Holroyd, China turns to UK grinding technology for its jets, as well as Welding corrosion resistant alloys from Arc Energy Resources, and Measurement system brings a sense of balance from Universal Balancing.
