The UltraTEC ultrasonic A25 creates a formation and dissolution/implosion of bubbles in water that release an intense energy during implosion. This is created by an ultra-high oscillation of 20kHz (20,000 oscillations per second) with an oscillation width of +/-80-120microns, which far exceeds the amplitude of ultrasonic cleaning, cutting and…

VGrind 260, VGrind Neon and VGrind Argon

VGrind 260, VGrind Neon and VGrind Argon – these are the names of the three new tool grinding machines from the sharpening specialist VOLLMER. They were presented for the first time at the GrindingHub 2022 trade fair in Stuttgart.

Sharpening Duo for Carbide-Tipped Circular Saws

The new duo of VOLLMER grinding machines designed for machining carbide-tipped circular saw blades, is made up of the CS 860 and CSF 860.

VLaser 270 Laser-Based Sharpening Machine

The German sharpening specialist Vollmer has completed its range of products with a laser-based sharpening machine. The machine concept for the VLaser 270 will be presented for the first time in spring 2020.

CHC & CHP Sharpening machine series

Intended for hook and clearance surfaces of carbide-tipped saw blades, the CHP 840 and 1300 universal sharpening machines with four CNC-controlled axes are suitable for the complete machining of all commonly found tooth geometries, according to Vollmer of America.

CHD270

Vollmer of America's CHD270 is a sharpening machine with 8 CNC-controlled axes and a measurement device, and it's intended for the automatic machining of carbide-tipped circular saw blades with various diameters and tooth geometries on face and top.

CM 200 and 300

The use of carbide- or cermet-tipped thin-kerf metal circular saws allows for high feed rates, low machining forces and thin saw kerfs—all of which reduces energy consumption and saves resources, according to Vollmer of America, which specializes in grinding and erosion machines, and develops sharpening machines such as the CM 200/300 and the CMF…

QXD 250

The Vollmer eroding machine QXD 250 makes it possible for tool manufacturers to process more than 30 percent more PCD cutters in the same amount of time as has been the case up to now. This milestone in production is made possible by the generator technology Vpulse EDM, which sets the eroding beat at the heart of the QXD 250.

Vgrind 360 Tool-Cutter

With greater scope in terms of its travel capabilities, the new Vgrind 360 is able to machine tools up to a diameter of 200mm, depending on the geometry. Just like its predecessor, the Vgrind 160, the same effective kinematics with two vertical spindles allow for multi-level machining.
