The new IRD series stays true to Overbeck´s high precision legacy. Now with even greater flexibility and full automation readiness, it combines all grinding processes in one powerful software.
ID, OD, face, taper, radius, thread, non-round, jig. The IRD enables multiple operations in a single setup.
It is the only grinding machine on the market that combines radius grinding with fully integrated non-round capabilities.
The new IRD range stays true to Overbeck’s legacy: highest precision and repeatability. Backed by decades of experience machining soft and hard metals, ceramics, and high-tech components, we deliver solid know-how for high precision solutions.
Automation has been a key driver in redesigning the Overbeck portfolio. Every IRD model is engineered for easy integration and even the most compact IRD model comes with a dedicated space for a robot.
While the compact model above may come with an integrated robot, the possibilities to automate the IRD are practically limitless, with each solution designed to suit your parts, batch variety, and production layout using robots, gantries, or hybrid systems.

Combination of an integrated gantry and an external robot cell.
Combination of an external gantry and an external robot cell.
Simple and complex cycles in one software.
Program profiles directly on the control, no external software required.
Assistants for thread, non-round, jig and taper grinding. Select, confirm, grind.
Customer specific features are implemented quickly, without long lead times.
With the IRD family, you get the highest flexibility in a compact design. The IRD-300 is 40% smaller than other alternatives, yet still offers up to 3 spindles and a measuring probe. Larger models keep the footprint optimised while featuring up to 5 spindles and a measuring probe.
The DoGrind+ software precisely monitors energy consumption per workpiece and ensures full power compensation across the entire machine. With this green solution, potential energy savings of up to 30% can be achieved — a smart strategy to reduce part costs.
The IRD family includes 3 models, from the smallest IRD-300 to the IRD-500 and IRD-700 for larger workpieces. They cover parts with maximum grinding lengths of up to 400 mm and swing diameters up to 700 mm.
The base is made of natural granite, ensuring thermal stability and vibration damping, a key factor in achieving surface quality and consistent grinding results.
Ensure fast and precise axis movement, ideal for high accuracy applications such as non-round grinding. With no wear parts and active cooling, they offer maximum reliability, zero backlash and low maintenance.
Workheads with direct drive, designed and built in-house, ensure the highest rigidity, modularity, and stable performance over long cycles, while allowing easy integration with different clamping systems.
High precision spindles with integrated motors, high performance bearings and optimised lubrication systems. Designed for thermal stability, low maintenance and consistent surface quality.
