A system and method for grinding the exterior of a shaft part with rotationally symmetrical sections and bases which have centering bores and which define a reference longitudinal axis and rotational axis of the shaft part. The shaft part is held between tips which engage into the centering bores during the grinding process using a grinding disk, and the shaft part is additionally supported on the rotationally symmetrical sections by means of a support device. The current diameter values of the rotationally symmetrical sections are measured and transmitted to a controller, by means of which the support device is updated with respect to the measured diameter values while continuously supporting the rotationally symmetrical sections until target dimensions are achieved.
