Abstract
A process for surface grinding of a flange surface of a wheel hub onto which a brake disk can be mounted for a motor vehicle includes the mounting of the wheel bearing on the wheel hub before the grinding operation. An outer bearing ring is then clamped on a stationary support and, as the wheel hub is rotated, the surfaces ground by a cup-shaped grinding disk rotated about an axis parallel to that of the axis of rotation of the hub.
