Alternative Surface Grinding grew from a shaft-seal maker’s microfinishing work into a Brunswick, Ohio, specialist in precision grinding and microfinishing small parts to extremely tight tolerances. Its hyprolapping process, paired with light-band measurement, can produce surface flatness down to 23 millionths of an inch, while double-disc grinding supports high-volume production. The company is ISO 9001:2015 certified and traces its history through the Anderton family’s manufacturing business, which began nearly 60 years ago.
