Cylindrical Grinding

Hotchkiss Engineers are able to lift 60 metric Tonnes through the main bays of their West Kingsdown workshop. With this large capacity of lifting at their disposal, they can manoeuvre even the largest cylindrical rolls into our roll grinder, a service which has been invaluable to many of our clients within the paper and cable industries.

We currently own two cylindrical roll grinders, the largest of which is capable of processing up to 11 metres between centres and up to 1.65 metres in diameter.

Here at Hotchkiss, we can undertake all of your engineering requirements - including all paper roll grinding to the most demanding of variables.
