A Precision Grinding Company Built on Legacy and Accuracy

Die Technology brings deep expertise to precision grinding, shaped by years of excellence in micron-level precision. Custom Jig Grinding was acquired in 2014 and operates as a division of Die Technology, Inc. We’re committed to building on the reputation and legacy of Custom Jig Grinding by continually improving our unique grinding equipment and processes.

Precision Custom Jig Grinding for Complex, Tight-Tolerance Applications

Jig grinding is a specialized machining process used to create extremely accurate holes, contours, and surface profiles in hard materials. Unlike traditional grinding methods, jig grinding provides precise location control and ultra-tight tolerances — ideal for features like bores, slots, and complex contours that must be both dimensionally accurate and repeatable.

At Die Technology, jig grinding is more than a capability — it’s expertise. Since acquiring Custom Jig Grinding in 2014, we’ve carried forward decades of experience and invested in advanced CNC jig grinding equipment to meet the evolving needs of aerospace, medical, and high-tech industrial clients. Whether it’s grinding precision gauges or multi-feature plates, our reputation is built on technical excellence, control, and consistency.

What Is Jig Grinding?

Jig grinding is a high-precision grinding process used to produce accurate holes, contours, and features in hardened or difficult-to-machine materials. The process relies on a specialized jig grinder equipped with a high-speed spindle, allowing controlled movement of the grinding wheel along predefined paths. Unlike surface grinding or ID/OD grinding, jig grinding offers exceptional true-position accuracy — typically within 0.0001″ — and is ideal for features that must align perfectly with other dimensions on a part.

To visualize it, think of jig grinding like using a fine-tipped engraving tool guided by a coordinate system. It removes material slowly but with extreme accuracy, making it essential for components where even the slightest deviation can compromise function or fit.

In modern manufacturing, jig grinding ensures part integrity in tight-tolerance assemblies, tooling inserts, and mission-critical components. It’s especially valuable when paired with EDM or milling operations as part of a multi-process machining strategy.

Die Technology’s Capabilities in Precision Jig Grinding

Precision That Sets Us Apart

Die Technology’s precision jig grinding operations are powered by CNC-controlled grinders capable of achieving:

  • Hole sizes from Ø0.030″ to 6.5000″
  • Contour profile accuracies within 0.0002″
  • True position and feature size tolerances within ±0.0001″
  • Thermal stability using synthetic oil-based coolant systems
  • Support for materials such as tool steel, stainless, carbide, and aluminum

With in-house CMM services and custom fixturing, we ensure high repeatability and minimal deviation — even across complex multi-feature plates.

End-to-End Solutions

Our CNC jig grinding services are often integrated with wire EDM, sinker EDM, or milling processes as part of complete die, fixture, or tooling builds. We support:

  • Multi-feature plate grinding in a single setup
  • Surface and contour grinding of hardened steel and carbide
  • Collaborative fixture and tooling design

We combine technical excellence with modern automation to deliver speed, precision, and reliability — even for your most complex challenges.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is your ideal customer?

We work with large OEMs in the medical, aerospace, electronic, energy, or defense industries in the U.S. who seek smart manufacturing solutions and value specialized manufacturing capabilities, equal partnerships, and micron-level precision. We target ideal-fit partners who share our values and have the potential to become strategic, long-term Die Technology customers.

What tolerances can your jig grinding hold?

Our equipment is capable of micron-level accuracy. Our CNC jig grinding services hold true position and feature size tolerances within ±0.0001″ and continuous path contour profiles within ±0.0002″.

What hole sizes can you jig grind?

We grind hole sizes from Ø0.030″ to 6.5000″ in tool steel, stainless, carbide, and aluminum.

What’s the difference between jig grinding and surface grinding?

Surface grinding flattens or finishes surfaces, while jig grinding delivers exceptional true-position accuracy for bores, contours, and features that must align precisely with other dimensions on a part.

Is precision jig grinding one of your core capabilities?

Yes. Through our Custom Jig Grinding division, acquired in 2014, Die Technology brings decades of specialized jig grinding expertise. Combined with our EDM and milling capabilities, we provide integrated precision manufacturing solutions for complex, high-tolerance components.
