Grinding Machines & Equipment

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Both die grinders feature RAPIDSTOP™ Brake for enhanced user safety, stopping most accessories in less than two seconds. Combining three exclusive innovations - the POWERSTATE™ brushless motor, REDLITHIUM™ battery pack, and REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence- these new die grinders provide users with the versatility and performance needed to remove material faster than a corded die grinder.

The S100 can be configured to meet each customer's individual needs. It can be equipped with up to two internal grinding spindles, or one internal and one external spindle. In addition to a fixed wheelhead, it can be supplied with a manual wheelhead and a 2.5 degree Hirth coupling.

The basis for the extraordinary flexibility of the HELITRONIC MINI PLUS is the unique WALTER gantry design. The economical production of common and complex geometries of tools with a diameter range of 1mm - 16mm (0.04" - 0.63") in one clamping is guaranteed by the powerful HSK belt spindle with two spindle ends for up to six grinding wheels.

Norton for Aluminum wheels have a range of features and benefits including a 5/8"- 11" hub for quick, tool-free wheel changes. Helping to keep metal surfaces clean for defect-free, corrosion-free welding, the new wheels have a contaminate-free bond which does not need any waxes or lubricants.
