Original Press Release:
Num Offers Complete Solutions Dedicated to Grinding with User-Friendly Graphical and Conversational Programming
Configured with a very effective combination set of hardware and software, Num's Axium Power CNC system is particularly well suited to address all aspects of the cylindrical and surface grinding process. This is a complete "off the shelf solution," with its embedded grinding/dressing cycles governed by a user-friendly menu-driven data entry, and wizard-guided wheel and diamond origin setup. The Num Axium Power CNC system saves the OEM or integrator years of software development effort, while lowering cost of employee training. It is perfectly suited for producing precision industrial parts requiring both dimensional accuracy and high-quality surface finish.
The cylindrical grinding process allows for a full OD/ID grind cycle for 2-Axis (X/Z) grinding machines and has inclined axis capability by tilting the grinding head or the table. The dressing station can be table-mounted or rear-positioned to accommodate all existing machines. Other capabilities include wheel dressing with single/double point or roller dresser and profile grinding.
For surface grinding, Num offers full grind cycles for 3-Axis (X/Y/Z) machines with wheel dressing with single/double point or roller dresser capabilities.
The Windows-based process is extremely user-friendly. Entry screens provide the machine operator with a comprehensive graphical programming approach that depicts the grinding wheel, work piece, and associated setup data in a clear and concise manner. The operator does not have to use ISO programming; he or she simply fills in the data fields presented to him/her by the program. After this data entry session, the cylindrical grinding program is automatically generated, stored, and ready for execution. On-line step-by-step video tutorials and graphical grinding simulation further facilitates the operation.
