Surface grinding is performed on two basic types of machines. These are the horizontal spindle and vertical spindle surface grinding machines. Either type may be obtained with a reciprocating or a rotary table. As with other types of grinding machines the spindle should run true so that there is a constant pressure between the wheel and the work. 1, record 1, English, - horizontal%2Dspindle%20surface%2Dgrinding%20machine

Rectifieuse horizontale. Ainsi appelée parce que l'axe de l'arbre porte-meule est horizontal. Ces rectifieuses utilisent des meules plates et servent à exécuter la rectification des surfaces planes, d'évidements ou d'arbres cannelés. La meule peut se déplacer de haut en bas [...] Elle peut, en outre, se déplacer parallèlement à son axe, afin de rectifier la pièce sur toute sa longueur. La pièce, au contraire, possède un seul mouvement dans le sens de sa longueur. 1, record 1, French, - rectifieuse%20horizontale

The horizontal spindle grinder with a reciprocating table is probably the most common surface grinder for toolroom work. The work is reciprocated under the grinding wheel which is fed down to provide the desired depth of cut. 3, record 2, English, - horizontal%20spindle%20grinder
