Macro I

High production grinding Center with a X-travel up to 900 mm long. The enhanced X-travel allows grinding of large sized work pieces. This machine offers an index table so that loading and unloading can be done during the grind cycle. The index table needs only a few seconds to transport the newly clamped work piece into the grinding area with a simple rotation. Long dwell times are therefore eliminated. This makes the equipment very suitable for multiple machine operation as well as automation.

The MACRO series is characterized mainly by the following useful features

• torque tube design
• polymer concrete-filled machine bed
• tool slides of the machine are made from cast iron
• high stock removal rates achievable
• efficient vibration damping
• high thermal stability
• water-cooled spindles and spindle drives
• different rotary speeds and power levels available
• stable temperature during grinding
• consistently high part quality

• Polymer concrete-filled machine bed
• Complete enclosure around the machine
• Control cabinet and auxiliary frame for aggregates are swivel-mounted
• Hydraulic balancing system as weight compensation of the vertical slide
• Digital servo drive technology from Siemens
• Integrated Magneto-resistive measuring principle for all axes
• Table-mounted dresser systems for Form- and profile rolls
• Embedded grinding wheel data base
• Optional: Overhead dresser
• Optional: Acoustic emission and wheel balancing systems
• Optional: Automatic adjustment of the coolant nozzle
