In addition to camshafts, the model grinds small crankshafts, pins and concentric diameters in one set up. The company says this grinder is also useful solution for short-run processing of concentric and non-concentric single- and multiple-diameter shafts.
Capable of grinding speeds as high as 200 m/sec, the machine has been optimized for use with CBN abrasives. Features include a FEA-optimized cast iron bed; linear motor driven, hydrostatic wheel feed system; motorized hydrostatic high speed spindle; and a stiff, linear-guided foot stock with a high speed rotary dresser. The PC-based open architecture control, ergonomic design for manual or automatic loading and 80 mm to 350 mm diameter wheel size contribute to the model’s flexibility, says the company.
