Strong structure serves to promote precision and high efficiency during heavy-duty grinding assignments
A direct-infeed mechanism for the wheelhead and a very rigid grinding-wheel spindle combine to assure roll surfaces of the highest quality
Automated grinding functions resulting from years of accumulated know-how and advanced grinding technologies
The TOSNUC CNC system, specially designed by Shibaura Machine for roll-grinding applications, automates each step in the grinding process
Outstanding operability
The interactive input of everything from the shape of the roll and the amount of camber to the setting of the table-traversing range can be easily performed while observing the displays on the CRT screen
Simple maintenance and long service life
The simplification of all of the machine's mechanisms made possible by the CNC control has resulted in easier and less frequent maintenance work
Direct-infeed mechanism for wheelhead guarantees high-precision roll-surface accuracies
•The precision linear guides and a very accurate ballscrew assure excellent following
accuracy for the wheelhead’s infeed mechanism even when extremely minute movements are performed. The construction is designed to provide all of the functions necessary for fine and accurate direct-infeed movements.
•As a result of the structural arrangement, the number of parts in the wheelhead has been decreased and its rigidity has been greatly increased to provide an improved heavy-duty-grinding capability and highquality roll surfaces that are completely free of chatter marks.
