Grinding Machines & Equipment

Dental tool grinding on the 5-axis GrindSmart Nano5 grinding machine offers exceptional flexibility in comparison to conventional single-purpose grinders.

Premium Ceramic Grain - provides a cooler cut for a longer lasting disc; 50 Grit – less emphasis on aggression with refined surface finish; 36 Grit – best combination of stock. Works well on stainless steel & carbon steel, weld bead removal, chamfering and beveling, flame-cut steel removal, edge grinding and deburring.

Every grinder provides four to seven times longer duty cycle under load and eight times less speed degradation than the competition. The grinders provide smooth, quiet power for grinding cleaning, deburring, chamfering and sharpening.

With a smaller diameter, quick change discs provide ease of use on intricate parts and excellent control when shaping or blending surface portions, especially on flat surfaces. Moderate flexibility of quick change discs and their holders allows contouring and access to inner corners.

Because aluminum has a much lower melting temperature than other metals, keeping aluminum cool while grinding and finishing is a big challenge for welders and fabricators. The Blue-Kote disc cloth's net structure resists clogging on soft materials, and its sanded surface stays cooler and avoids burning the work surface.

Available for 9" and 10" diameter wheels, the machine CNC dresses precision contours in vitrified grinding wheels. The shape can be transferred from a CAD drawing into G-code which the DM-9CNC can read to form the wheel. Alternatively, for simpler geometry, the operator can enter the dress profile in a tabulated form on the 15" touch screen HMI.

The Minimicromar3 is designed for measuring external diameters, positioning and length for both smooth and interrupted surfaces. It can measure workpieces from 25mm to 42.5mm with a measuring range of ±100 µm and a repeatability of ≤0.1 µm. It is designed with a high degree of protection against coolant and abrasive substances.

The machine's capabilities include a 15 kW direct-drive motor that produces maximum wheel spindle speed of 6000 m/min. X-axis stroke of 330mm features a rapid feed rate of 5m/min, Z-axis stroke is 2150mm with 10m/min rapid feed, and maximum work spindle speed is 200 rpm.

Pinch grinding offers accurate geometrical dimensions on the blank and tight surface finish requirements. In pinch grinding, the roughing and finishing wheels grind parts simultaneously, with the finishing wheel trailing the roughing wheel. The rough and finish grinding are performed in one pass.

Pinch grinding offers highest concentricity particularly on long and thin parts. The rough and finish grinding are performed in one pass. This innovative way to grind roughing and finishing simultaneously eliminates a separate process and reduces cycle time.

With five axes of motion and storage for 40 tools, the machine can grind thread grooves and also machine the nut circumference, end surface, key grooves, and return tube holes in a single setup. In addition to producing large savings in manufacturing time, elimination of setup changeovers also assures exact phase alignment of thread grooves and return tube holes.

Norton Winter AEON Grinding Wheels have a single usable abrasive layer design, with diamond or cBN particles mechanically fixed onto the core surface by an electrochemical process of nickel deposition. This unique layer design provides high grit retention levels for long wheel life. To save costs, the wheel core can be re-used.
