Design and characteristics of centerless cylindrical grinding machines

 

General requirements for centerless cylindrical grinding machines for centerless cylindrical grinding:

Maximum stability for high material removal rates, accuracy and throughput is achieved through:

  • A stable machine bed with high damping and low natural frequency
  • Height-adjustable, rigid support (workrest blade) for minimized setup time and automatic adjustment of the grinding geometry for simplifying the setup process and ensuring maximum accuracy.
  • Heavy, rigid main slides for maximum stability and vibration damping
  • NC-controlled dressing axes for technologically optimized dressing contours
  • Effective workpiece cooling

The high-performance centerless cylindrical grinding machine Ebert C-3070 meets all general requirements and additionally offers the following features:

  • Laterally fixed grinding center to simplify workpiece feeding, a prerequisite for machining long workpieces.
  • Dressing units with separate axes for mechanical copying template and servo contour, for maximum flexibility, precision and service life.
  • Gearless direct drive of both slides via servo motor and Ø100 mm ball screw for highest precision and rigidity.
  • Hydrostatic slide system with flow control valves for precise positioning and maximum service life (grinding and regulating slide).
  • Height adjustment of the workrest blade via servo motor for easy and quick setup of the machine.
  • Grinding wheel Ø725 mm for maximum service life and productivity, especially with conventional grinding wheels.
  • 100 kW grinding wheel drive power
  • Machining from small parts in high quantities up to 8-ton bars
  • Minimized distances to the grinding gap
  • Compact protective cover
  • NC contour dressing
  • constant cutting speed
