TRU TECH T93XM Perimetric Grinder

Centerless Grinder Provides Sub-Micron Accuracy Via High Speed, User-Friendly Control
The T93XM can profile with a standard 1A1 wheel and accommodates several grind styles including wheel profile, plunge, peel, in-feed and thru-feed grinding. The perimetric workholding, unique to TRU TECH, ensures part concentricity to eliminate shank runout without indicating. Ultra-precision accuracy is achieved through the 3-axis, fully programmable configuration with CNC variable speed spindle. Pick-N-Place™ software eases and shortens programming setup time. Several design features add stability and further support operator ergonomic considerations. Part sizes can be 3” (75mm) in diameter, up to 8” (200mm) in length.

CBVR-2F-2S Clamp Bore Grinders

Clamp Bore Grinding Machine Features Simplified Design
The core components of the machine stayed the same. The spindle columns were repositioned to replace the gantry mechanism. This one change allowed for several previous components to be removed, making the machine more open and maintenance-friendly. The main change is that we have incorporated a Fanuc robot within the machine for the movement of parts.
