Cylindrical grinding machine RTV series

for gearsfor large workpiecesvertical

The RTV-CNC range of rotary table vertical grinding machines use a ‘T’ shaped bed with a rigid, fixed column which incorporates the vertical Z axis wheel head movement. The X axis longitudinal table movement is directly mounted on the front of the bed with the integrated rotary chuck which includes C axis. These machines provide an excellent solution with maximum single spindle flexibility for large diameter, heavy components which require high precision internal, external and face grinding – for example motor casings, gears, bearings and turbines found in sectors such as power generation, aerospace and marine etc. Using a RTV-CNC for heavier components has a distinct advantage over a horizontal grinder in that, rather than constantly fighting gravity, the weight of the component actually makes it easier to load and position it on the rotary table. Software The machines are equipped with the latest generation FANUC 0i-TF control, motors and equipment. The powerful user-friendly 15” touch screen control uses graphic-based software specially created by GER. The interactive software helps make it easier for less experienced operators to use. Touch-screen programming with user-friendly GER graphic based grinding cycle screens to guide the operator MAIN FEATURES: • Intuitive programming allows difficult grinding and dressing programmes to be linked to create pre-defined simple cycles. • The step-by-step programming philosophy makes it easier to programme complicated jobs. • USB and Ethernet connections enable programme input and saving. • A useful feature enables the operator to modify the process during automatic cycle without affecting the original programme.
