Used grinding systems for foundries
Used grinding systems are an essential part of post-processing in foundries. After blasting, castings are often deburred, ground or prepared for further processing. TCT Tesic supplies robust, industrially proven grinding systems specifically for the casting sector – e.. for grey cast iron, steel or cast aluminium. Whether automatic grinding cells, hand-guided grinding machines or specialised deburring systems: Here you will find the right used grinding system for your requirements.
Use our international network if you want to buy or sell a used grinding machine. Our team will support you from technical advice to dismantling and commissioning the machine at your site.

Advantages of used grinding systems for foundries
- Cost-efficient: You save on investment costs and receive tried-and-tested technology.
- Robust & industrially proven: Grinding systems for foundries are designed for high loads.
- Immediately available: Shorten project lead times with ready-to-use used machines.
- Specialised for castings: These machines are designed for processing heavy, irregular castings – in contrast to standard grinding machines.
- Act sustainably: By reusing durable machines, you are helping to protect the environment.
FAQ
Foundry grinding systems are significantly more robust and are designed for grinding large, heavy and often irregularly shaped castings. They have special extraction technology and low-vibration designs.
That depends on your range of parts. Automatic grinding centres (e.g. Reichmann/MAUS) are recommended for large quantities and series production. Manual stations are more suitable for flexible processing. TCT Tesic will advise you individually.
The wear condition of the grinding spindle, the guide rails and the extraction system is important. An inspection or test run is often advisable – TCT Tesic will organise this for you.
We record your system technically, advertise it specifically, negotiate with buyers and, if required, also take care of dismantling, transport and export formalities.
Many systems can be overhauled or customised before they are sold – e.. with new controls or workpiece holders. We will be happy to advise you on this.

Design & function of a grinding system in the foundry
Grinding systems in foundries are used to remove burrs, smooth cast surfaces and prepare them for further processing steps such as painting or assembly. Typical tasks:
- Deburring: Removal of sharp edges that occur during casting.
- Surface grinding: Levelling out small unevennesses on the casting surface.
- Processing of sprues and risers: mechanical post-processing for mould optimisation.
Types of grinding systems:
- Automatic sanding centres: Robot-controlled systems (e.. MAUS) for high quantities
- Manual stations: For flexible individual processing with operator guidance
- Combination systems: Combination of robotics, grinding wheels, milling spindles and extraction system
Important components:
- Grinding spindle / grinding disc
- Extraction system to minimise dust
- Workpiece fixing / clamping device
- Control system / robot control for automatic systems
Powerful and ergonomic systems are required, especially for cast parts weighing 100-500 kg, to ensure precise finishing – with maximum work safety.
