Abstract

A process of grinding a pre-ground part wherein the method includes the steps of: providing a pre-ground part containing a bore, and the pre-ground part having an exterior surface with one or more to-be-ground exterior surface regions; positioning a loading tool within the bore of the pre-ground part; exerting a loading tool load on the loading tool which in turn exerts a part load on the pre-ground part; removing material from the one or more to-be-ground surface regions of the pre-ground part when under the part load to form an as-ground part; and unloading the part load from the as-ground part.
