Used CNC Grinding Machines We Buy
Used CNC grinding machines fill 2,198 listings in our book, and Machine Tool Exchange buys them straight from the shops that own them, with no broker and no auction house in between. Okamoto and Chevalier account for the two largest blocks, ahead of Tos, Blanchard, Heald and Landis. Here is what actually moves an offer on a grinder.

What Is in the 2,198 Grinding Listings We Hold
Okamoto is the single most common builder in this hub at 562 listings, with Chevalier close behind at 523 and Tos third at 355. Blanchard adds 147, Heald Machine Co 125, Landis Machine Co 93, Toyoda Americas 83 and Okuma 75. Those eight builders account for 1,963 of the 2,198 listings, and the top three alone account for 1,440. These are exact counts across the whole hub, not a sample of it. The number that says the most about this book is 1,874 distinct model designations across 2,198 listings, which means mostly one-off machines out of working shops rather than repeats of a handful of models. Every listing here sits under the single category CNC Grinding Machines, so we do not break the hub down by grinder type. The listings that record a build year run from 1969 to 2025, and 738 of the 2,198 carry a build year at all.
Surface, Cylindrical, Centerless and Tool Grinders We Buy
Machine Tool Exchange buys surface grinders, cylindrical grinders in both OD and ID form, centerless grinders and tool grinders, in CNC and manual configurations. That covers the hand-fed surface grinder in the corner of a toolroom and the tool and cutter grinder running production, and it does not change with the nameplate: we buy grinders of all brands, sizes and configurations. A manual toolroom grinder is bought on the same terms as a CNC one. Since every listing in this hub sits under one category, CNC Grinding Machines, the catalog carries no surface versus cylindrical versus centerless split for these listings, and we are not going to invent one. What the catalog does show is 1,874 distinct model designations inside those 2,198 listings, so a grinder that resembles nothing else on your floor is normal here. Whether you are moving one machine or clearing an entire grinding department, the buying terms are the same.
The Model Designations That Come Through Most
Shop owners usually type a designation rather than a category. FSG is the most common leading model token in this hub at 295 listings, and ACC follows at 210, putting those two well ahead of everything else. Below them, SMART carries 81, PSG 78, BUB 51, BUC 47, OGM 46 and BHU 42, with GP at 29, BUA 28, FPG 21, IGM 21, GA 20, HELITRONIC 20 and CGP 20 filling out the next block. PFG and BRH each carry 17, then ACCUGAR 14, BPH 13, BU 12, CG 11 and GI 10. Full designations that come through include FSG-618M, FSG-3A1020, FSG-3A1224, FSG-1224AD, ACC-1632DX, GI-10NII, GP-25T, 1CF-91, 1CF-90, 36HD-66, 32K-60, 22K-42, 22HD-42 and 11AD-20. Every designation above comes off machines in this hub, not a brochure. If the data plate on your machine reads like one of those, send the string exactly as it appears and we can place it fast.
What Determines the Offer on a Used Grinder
Start with brand, model, year, condition and control type. Photos speed the evaluation and are not required, though a shot of the table, the wheelhead and the control screen answers half of what we would otherwise ask. A precision grinder holds the tightest tolerances on the floor, so the first thing worth telling us is whether it still holds size, along with the maintenance history: spindle and wheelhead condition, way wear, and what it was doing before it came off the job. Jason Puuri scopes each one himself against current market data plus brand, model, age and condition, rather than running the details through a formula. Age carries real weight, since the listings that record a build year run from 1969 to 2025, and a 1970s manual grinder and a current CNC tool grinder are different conversations. A written offer typically comes back inside 24 to 48 hours, no obligation.
Selling a Grinder Without a Broker, a Listing or an Auction
MTE is a direct buyer. We purchase the machine outright, so there is no consignment, no listing and nothing to wait on while a third party decides whether it wants your grinder. That matters on grinding equipment in particular, because a machine parked on a listing site for months is a machine still occupying floor space you need for the work that replaced it. Once you accept a number, we can arrange rigging, crating and freight, in all 50 states. We can arrange the pickup. Any brand, any condition, any quantity: running, idle or decommissioned, one toolroom surface grinder or a full facility coming down. Call 517-514-5190 or send the machine details through the form at /sell-your-cnc-machine/. Machine Tool Exchange is an affiliate of Superior Machine Tools, buying used CNC equipment nationwide.
The Grinder Builders Behind the Big Four
Behind Okamoto, Chevalier, Tos and Blanchard, and behind Heald, Landis, Toyoda and Okuma after them, sit 24 more builders sharing the remaining 232 listings. Reishauer carries 43 and Walter 34, then Amada 25, Emag 23 and Toshiba 20. Rollomatic has 14, ANCA 12 and Liebherr 10, with G&L at 8, Gleason at 7, Makino and Fanuc at 5, Samputensili and Waldrich-Coburg at 4, Haas and Grob at 3, and DMG MORI, Herkules, Tsugami and Pfauter-Maag at 2. Brother, Shigiya and Nidec Machine Tool are one listing each, present rather than deep. That tail is the point: a smaller builder is a name we already know how to place, not one we have to look up first. Studer, Mitsui and Jones and Shipman grinders are equipment we buy as well, whether or not one happens to be on the yard right now. None of those three is counted in the list above.

Common questions
How do I sell a used CNC grinder?
Send the brand, model, year, condition and control type. We scope the machine and send a written offer, typically inside 24 to 48 hours. Accept it and we can arrange the pickup.
What types of grinders does Machine Tool Exchange buy?
Surface grinders, cylindrical grinders in both OD and ID form, centerless grinders and tool grinders, in CNC and manual configurations. Any brand, any size, from one machine to a whole department.
How fast will I get an offer, and what do you need?
Brand, model, year, condition and control type are enough to start. Photos help but are not required. A written offer typically comes back within 24 to 48 hours.
Can you arrange rigging, crating and freight?
Yes. Once you accept the offer, Machine Tool Exchange can arrange rigging, crating and freight in all 50 states. You do not have to book a crew yourself.
Who arranges the pickup for the machine?
We buy outright, and we can arrange the pickup and have the grinder moved off your floor.
Will you buy a grinder that is sitting idle or decommissioned?
Yes. Running, idle or decommissioned machines all get an offer. Tell us upfront what does not work, the control, the hydraulics or the spindle, so we scope it accurately.
Can I sell one grinder, or only a whole floor?
Either one. A single surface grinder gets the same terms as a full facility being cleared, and a mixed lot is scoped machine by machine, not as one blanket number.
Thinking about selling CNC Grinding Machines?
Grinder offers turn on the wheelhead and the way surfaces more than on the nameplate, which is why a photo of the table and a note on whether it still holds size get a number back faster than a model number alone. Jason Puuri scopes each one himself, and once you accept, rigging and freight are ours to arrange.
