Microrex, centerless grinders

TLDR: Microrex is a brand of centerless grinders found on the French used market, with models such as the 1H and the 502.

Microrex grinders are mostly found second-hand today, often rebuilt. The manufacturer's country of origin and history are not confirmed by the sources we consulted: we identify the machine and its spindle from the nameplate and a diagnosis.

Grinding wheel and regulating wheel

TLDR: On a Microrex centerless grinder, the part is guided between the grinding wheel, the regulating wheel and a work rest: accuracy depends on the stability of both spindles.

For example, a rebuilt Microrex 1H is listed with a Ø350 × 100 mm grinding wheel and a Ø230 × 100 mm regulating wheel. Power ratings, speeds and bearings of the Microrex spindle are not given in the sources we consulted: we confirm them in our quote.
