| This type of computer numerically controlled (CNC) grinding machine is used to grind all types of cutting tools (drills, endmills, reamers, taps, etc.) to final dimensions, from a solid blank. They are also used to regrind tools that have been used and are dull to restore them to their original dimensions so they can be used again.
When you are producing new tools or regrinding drill tools, this type of machine is very useful to make one tool or a series of tools that are exactly the same and will give you longer, more accurate cutting capability for a longer lifetime.
These machines utilize very powerful grinding programs which allow you to develop a tool program from very simple menu pages and can be used with carbide or steel materials.
CNC Tool Grinding machines can also be configured with workpiece loading devices, wheel dressing devices, and wheel changing devices to grind one piece lot sizes up to production lot sizes and then can be set up and changed over to different grinding jobs easily and rapidly. |
