workpiecefor shaftfor small workpieces

Features like a direct drive spindle and a wheel head driven by a zero backlash torque motor make the LG ideal for high volume and flexible batch production. Blistering production rates with wheel speeds up to 120 m/s • For machining small to medium-sized components • Uses CBN, diamond, and conventional abrasives, in combination if needed • Achieves a maximum peripheral grinding wheel speed of 120 m/s Complete machining of your part in just one set-up The LG can perform different grinding and measuring operations in a single set-up, increasing the productivity of the machine. External diameters, faces, tapers, non-round shapes, etc. in one clamping.
