Gear Grinding Machine enables high-speed processing.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 08:33:41 -0500

Used to grind internally toothed ring gears, ZI20A optimizes grinding speed (sliding velocity) via barrel-shaped and multi-threaded grinding wheel, made of cubic boron nitride (cBN), attached to main spindle. This method enables grinding by high-speed rotation of multi-threaded type grinder wheel. Rotation synchronous control technology achieves grinding speeds through spindle rotations: 15,000 rpm for main spindle that rotates grinding wheel and 6,000 rpm for work-piece spindle.
