PRECISION GRINDING SERVICES
Riverside Spline & Gear provides precision grinding services for gear blanks, shafts and industrial components requiring accurate diameters, bores, faces and surface finishes. Our grinding capabilities include OD, ID, cylindrical, bore, face and surface grinding to support both complete gear manufacturing and customer-supplied parts.
With CNC and manual grinding equipment in-house, Riverside can support custom, low-volume and production requirements from our Marine City, Michigan facility.
PRECISION GRINDING CAPABILITIES
Our cylindrical grinding services support round components that require controlled diameters, geometry and surface finish. Riverside also provides surface grinding for flat surfaces used throughout precision gear and component manufacturing.
Grinding can be incorporated into a complete manufacturing process or performed on customer-supplied parts depending on the project requirements.

OD AND ID GRINDING SERVICES
Riverside provides OD grinding services for outside diameters and ID grinding services for bores and internal surfaces where precise dimensions, concentricity and surface finish are required.
These processes are commonly used on gear blanks, shafts and other precision-machined components before or after additional manufacturing operations.
OD GRINDING
Precision outside diameter grinding for shafts, gear blanks and cylindrical components.
OD GRINDING
Internal diameter and bore grinding for components requiring accurate internal dimensions and finishes.
CYLINDRICAL AND SURFACE GRINDING
Our cylindrical grinding services support round components that require controlled diameters, geometry and surface finish. Riverside also provides surface grinding for flat surfaces used throughout precision gear and component manufacturing.
Grinding can be incorporated into a complete manufacturing process or performed on customer-supplied parts depending on the project requirements.
PRECISION GRINDING FOR GEAR MANUFACTURING
Accurate gear manufacturing starts with an accurate gear blank. Riverside uses precision grinding to help control critical diameters, bores, faces and other surfaces before the gear cutting and finishing stages.
Maintaining these dimensions helps support proper gear alignment and final tooth accuracy during hobbing, shaping and gear grinding.
PRECISION GRINDING FOR CUSTOM AND LOW-VOLUME PARTS
Riverside supports precision grinding for custom components, replacement parts and low-volume production.
Our machining and inspection capabilities allow grinding to remain connected with other manufacturing processes when a finished component requires more than one operation.
Customers can provide drawings, CAD files or part specifications for review.
GEAR GRINDING
Riverside Spline & Gear provides gear grinding services for custom spur and helical gears requiring accurate final tooth geometry, profile, lead and surface finish.
Gear grinding can be performed as part of a complete gear manufacturing project or as a finishing service for qualifying customer-supplied gears.

HÖFLER GEAR GRINDING EQUIPMENT
Riverside's Gear Grinding Center includes multiple Höfler gear grinders with onboard checking capabilities for custom and industrial gearing.
The equipment supports a range of gear sizes and configurations, including large-diameter components requiring controlled tooth geometry and final finishing.
GEAR GRINDING AND INSPECTION
Onboard checking allows gear geometry to be evaluated during the grinding process. Riverside also maintains dedicated gear inspection equipment for verifying finished components before shipment.
CUSTOM AND LOW-VOLUME GEAR GRINDING
Riverside supports custom gear grinding for one-off components, replacement gears and low-volume production. Customers can submit gear drawings, specifications or component information for review.
External Gear Grinding Capabilities
Riverside’s external gear grinding equipment supports gears from approximately 0.5 to 59 inches in diameter, helix angles up to ±45° and 90°, modules from 1 to 25 mm with extended capacity, and table loads up to 13,227 lbs.
