Rush offers the Models FC-200D, FC-300D, FC-500D and FC-200CNC polycrystalline tool grinders, which allow for economical manufacturing and regrinding of PCD, CVD, PCBN, carbide and HSS tools. These machines grind angles and radii on standard and special turning and milling inserts, boring tools, milling cutters, grooving tools, reamers and special tools. The rigid construction with a 3-hp, variable-speed grinding spindle provides for vibration-free grinding and fast stock removal.

All models feature a unique video optical system with 15-120x (zoom) magnification and a black and white video monitor. This system provides a higher magnification and/or a larger field of view than most machine-mounted optical comparator systems, according to the company. In addition, the video camera moves with the worktable for easy setup and for inspection during and after grinding.

The Model FC-500D is a large, versatile machine. In addition to all of the capabilities of the FC-200D and FC-300D, the FC-500D features vertical grinding spindle travel, a wheel travel range of 500mm and an oscillation stroke of 70mm. The Model FC-500D is also designed for grinding reamers, drills, endmills and multistep form tools.
