Hey people, here is a question for you; what type of machine would ultimately give you a flatter, more precision surface, a conventional style surface grinder, or a vertical, Blanchard style machine? I can see the argument for either; for the conventional style machine, there is potential for deflection of the spindle/column (come on, we are talking in theory ), but there is less contact area of the wheel on the work. In the case of the Blanchard machine, the load is inline, with less (potentially) deflection, but the wheel has more contact area on the work, meaning more pressure....If anyone has any insight to this, please feel free to chime in...
Thank you,
Mark
