This series of surface grinders processes large and heavy workpieces with tolerances as required for precision surface grinding or for the preparatory processing step of lapping or polishing. The machine frame is designed in a cross-bed design with a movable column. This construction enables a long table guidance and thus the optimal introduction of weight force over the entire work area. The ability to switch between automatic or manual operation extends the scope for sample production, repair and training.
Magnetic clamping plate with built-in demagnetizing function
Siemens Smart Line PLC control with grinding cycles
NC-controlled Y/Z axes driven by servo motors
User-friendly HMI with touchscreen
Electronic handwheel for Y/Z axes
The massive, heavily ribbed cross-bed machine frame with traversing column and horizontal spindle is extremely rigid even under heaviest workpiece loads
The large work area allows machining of single workpieces with large surface areas or machining of several workpieces in one setup
The workspace is protected by an easily accessible enclosure
A high-performance cooling system is included in the standard equipment of this series
Control
Grinding cycles for automatic face and groove grinding are accessible and editable via touchscreen
Preloaded ball screws and powerful servo-motors on Y and X ensure high precision and repeatability during grinding wheel feeds
An electronic hand-wheel for Y- and Z-axis simplifies setup and manual positioning of the grinding spindle
If set to Auto mode, the user-defined roughing and finishing parameters, number of spark-out strokes, and return to zero are automatically processed
