Blue Moon TZ High-Performance Grinding Wheels

The abrasive grain used in the Blue Moon TZ is very sharp-edged, microcrystalline and has an elongated trapezoidal rod shape. Blue Moon TZ grinding wheels are particularly impressive due to their very low thermal load in the contact zone. The high profile retention of our grit combination leads to extended dressing intervals at high stock removal rates and increases economic efficiency.

Norton Quantum Prime Grinding Wheels

Norton Quantum Prime Wheels have several important advantages including a new micro-fracturing grain that has unparalleled sharpness and cutting efficiency which reduces power draw and cycle times, while increasing material removal rates. The unique grain is free cutting, which combined with advanced bond technologies such as Norton Vitrium3, allows Quantum Prime to wear more consistently, improving part quality, geometry and finish even at high material removal rates.

PG-912DG Enclosed Centerless Form Grinder

Glebar pairs the wider work wheel with an oscillating regulating wheel powered by servo motors to reduce setup time and improve sphericity. The slides can be programmed to finite positions through a touchscreen HMI. When an operator selects a job, the servo motors automatically adjust to programmed positions which reduces setup time.

ShapeSmart NP30

Both grinding spindles are "synchronous direct‐drive spindles" with 19 hp peak each. The most important feature of a synchro­nous motor is that it provides constant speed during its operation and that the torque curve is highly efficient, as per above graph. The rotational force is not reduced with higher RPM's. Synchronous motors always run at a speed equal to their syn­chronous speed, as opposed to asynchronous motors (induction motors) which always have a lag and are therefore less effi­cient.

NXT 5-axis Tool Grinder

The updated automation package accommodates denser pallet arrays for improved lot sizes and runtime, while delivering smoother robot operation and better repeatability. Additionally, the system can now adapt to multiple part profiles to be produced within a single run. An optional laser marking system has also been integrated for automated tool marking, in addition to many other new features.
