TORUS CNC

Torus CNC designs and builds USA-made 2×72 belt grinders and knifemaking tools in Sterling, Illinois. Its grinders are machined, hand-assembled, and shop-tested, with the maker personally checking belt tracking before shipping. The Torus lineup includes the Classic, Nova, and Nebula Corvus Edition, offering different chassis materials, footprints, and finishes while sharing a billet-aluminum dual-axis tracking head, 90-degree tilt, standard 1.5-inch tooling arms, and a 304 stainless ratchet tensioner. Each grinder includes a platen, tooling arm, and 4-inch drive wheel; motor and variable-frequency drive packages are available separately.

Torus also offers attachments and accessories designed for flexible grinding, including deep flat platens, adjustable work tables, small-wheel attachments, contact wheels, and replacement wheels and tensioners. Attachments use dedicated tooling arms and can be swapped between compatible grinders. The company also sells motors, VFDs, and shop tools, and provides product guidance and support. Torus CNC serves makers seeking adaptable equipment for grinding, bevel work, and other knifemaking tasks, with orders typically shipping within 7–10 business days.
