Abstract
A kiln tire grinder for grinding an out-of-round kiln tire comprising a grinding belt head assembly having a rotatable grinding belt and an x-y positioning table for positioning the rotating grinding belt assembly against a kiln tire. The rotating grinding belt assembly includes a drive assembly for rotating the grinding belt and a frame assembly for urging the grinding belt against the out-of-round kiln tire. The operator adjusts the rotating grinding belt head assembly against the out-of-round tire and then engages a drive motor which rotates the grinding belt. The rotating grinding belt is then urged against the kiln tire with a pressure that is adjustably controlled.
