So I'm fairly new to surface grinding, and I've only been doing it about a year. Its GRIND-X from Okamoto, and it has been leaving high spots in my plates. 420 stainless, about .003 high in the middle of the plates on a 15x15 plate. I switched out wheels a month or so ago, and have been getting good plates (+/- .0005, but this is the second time the plate has been out. I usually take a .0005 cut up until everything is cleared, since it is rough stock. Then jump down to a higher table speed, .0002 cut, and a small stepover until the plate is done. I know tolerances can be shit if the hydraulics get too hot, but .003 seems very excessive, especially since it is only in the middle of the plate. Any ideas or insight is welcome.
