Grinding Machines & Equipment
FX7 ULTRA
The FX7 ULTRA not only grinds tools faster than other machines, but also produces tools with both finer surface finishes and greater accuracy — which means superior tool performance and quality.
Vertical spindle Blanchard-style
The Grinding Doc shares observations and general trends on this grinding style
CBVR-2F-2S Clamp Bore Grinders
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.
CNC Blanket Grinding
Utilizing ANCA's machine platforms with a robot cell, blanket grinding offers flexibility across a range of tool sizes and applications. Blanket grinding allows for full automation of tools of similar geometries, by consolidating all tool grinding processes into one single machine. A batch of complete finished tools can be produced without interruption directly from lengths of ground bar stock with no operator intervention.

Tiger 2.0 Cutting, Grinding and Combo Wheels
In addition to offering fast cutting speed, Tiger 2.0 wheels last up to 40% longer to increase efficiency in operations' cutting and grinding applications. The wheels feature an award-winning blotter design that includes an industry-first, patent-pending Optimum Use Line. The line is a visual indicator that helps the operator use the wheel to its full life. This innovation reduces changeovers, allowing for greater productivity while also reducing waste and abrasive spend. In some cases, users experience three times more efficiency than with their previous abrasives.
Grinding and Measurement Equipment
STUDER has brought two new cylindrical grinding machines to the North American market with the release of the S100 and S36. BLOHM continues its tradition of customer-centric surface and profile grinding innovation with the release of the PLANOMAT XT Essential. WALTER is focused on packing more tool grinding functionality into a compact space with the new HELITRONIC G200 and HELITRONIC MINI PLUS.
Winter Paradigm Plus Diamond Grinding Wheels
The resin-based core, available for round tool grinding, is over 75% lighter and eliminates the risk of sparks while reducing chipping, breakage and chatter, for better finishing in round tool applications. The Paradigm bond, which combines the wear resistance of a metal bonded wheel with the ease of profiling in a vitrified bonded wheel, has up to 46% porosity enabling improved coolant flow for cooler cutting and reduced part burning, allowing for truing and dressing.
FX-RFID Automated Regrinding Solution
With the ANCA RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) regrinding solution, tools of various types and diameters and from different orders can be dynamically loaded, rather than having to sort them by diameter or customer as was previously necessary in mixed batches.
NXT 5-Axis Tool and Cutter Grinder
The NXT is a small-footprint machine with a large grind zone and the ability to run small- and large-diameter wheels. It uses fewer moving parts and easily configurable options in a modular design — at a competitive price point. With industry-leading NUMROTO software on a machine manufactured and supported in the USA, the NXT is the smallest and most capable CNC tool and cutter grinder on the market.
Truing Parameters Calculator
The Truing Parameters Calculator is the result of a 3-year collaboration between Rush Machinery, the International Grinding Institute, and Dr. Jeffrey Badger, the 'Grinding Doc'. Rush Machinery commissioned the project that was later presented at the 2008 CIRP General Assembly in Tokyo by Dražumerič, Badger, Klement, and Krajnik titled "Truing of Diamond Wheels–Geometry, Kinematics and Removal Mechanisms," published in the CIRP Annals, volume 57, pages 345-348.
Dual Gripper Solution
The dual gripper system on the versaLoad allows manufacturers to reduce part loading times by as much as 50% when compared to a single gripper setup. This allows the automation cell to operate with maximum efficiency, enabling versaLoad users to boost productivity without having to increase headcount.
