VT machining provides CNC Gear Grinding 304 Stainless Steel for customers who need accurate, repeatable 304 Stainless Steel components. The machinability of 304 Stainless Steel is moderate; work-hardens, so positive-rake tooling and steady feeds are used to avoid glazing, so we set the operation up specifically for this grade.
CNC Gear Grinding Capability for 304 Stainless Steel
- Austenitic/martensitic grades
- Corrosion resistant
- Tolerance to ±0.01 mm
- Typical hardness 70–200 HB (annealed)
Machining 304 Stainless Steel with CNC Gear Grinding
304 Stainless Steel behaves predictably under CNC Gear Grinding once parameters are dialled in: machinability is moderate; work-hardens, so positive-rake tooling and steady feeds are used to avoid glazing, and we tune the operation accordingly.
We hold reference parameters for this grade, so repeat orders of 304 Stainless Steel run consistently from one batch to the next.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Finished 304 Stainless Steel parts can move straight into secondary operations under one roof. Typical add-ons are deburring, passivation, anodising, plating, blasting, polishing and laser marking. We coordinate the whole chain so you receive complete, inspection-ready parts.
Why 304 Stainless Steel?
304 Stainless Steel is chosen when a part needs what this grade offers — it is corrosion resistant, strong and hygienic. We confirm the grade and any temper or heat-treat condition with you before machining.
CNC Gear Grinding Tolerances & Surface Finish
Gear features are produced to a specified DIN/AGMA accuracy class, with profile and lead controlled for quiet, durable running under load.
Final tolerances are governed by the material's behaviour, wall thickness and overall stiffness. We give honest DFM feedback if a callout would be costly or better achieved another way.
CNC Gear Grinding Quality & Inspection
We control quality throughout the process, not just at the end. In-process checks plus final inspection — including CMM where specified — keep every 304 Stainless Steel part to print. Inspection reports, material certificates and first-article documentation can be supplied on request.
Design Tips for CNC Gear Grinding 304 Stainless Steel
We are happy to suggest design tweaks that improve manufacturability. Providing complete gear data (module, pressure angle, profile shift, quality class) lets us produce 304 Stainless Steel gears right the first time. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
Applications of CNC Gear Grinding 304 Stainless Steel
Customers order CNC Gear Grinding 304 Stainless Steel components for everything from instrumentation to structural and functional assemblies. Whether you need a single prototype or recurring production volume, the same process discipline applies.
How to Order CNC Gear Grinding 304 Stainless Steel

Surface finish on 304 Stainless Steel is controlled to your specification; we confirm the achievable Ra against your callout.
Why is 304 Stainless Steel a good choice for CNC Gear Grinding?
304 Stainless Steel is corrosion resistant, strong and hygienic, which makes it well suited to CNC Gear Grinding. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished 304 Stainless Steel gear cutting part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
Does CNC Gear Grinding 304 Stainless Steel require dedicated tooling?
Most 304 Stainless Steel gear cutting work uses standard cutting tools and CNC programs; dedicated fixtures are made only when geometry or volume requires them.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Gear Grinding 304 Stainless Steel?
Achievable tolerances for 304 Stainless Steel gear cutting depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. We hold tight, repeatable tolerances appropriate to the feature and material. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
