Flat-Honing Machine enables 2-sided workpiece grinding.
Press Release Summary:
Maintaining submicron tolerances, Model DLM 705 employs dual-wheel design that enables both sides of workpieces to be ground simultaneously. Workpieces are held in carriers, enabling continuous loading/unloading and increasing machine uptime. Open-bridge style 05 series features process-controlled machining, integrated, computer-assisted measurement, and low wheel wear and adapts for automated or conveyorized workpiece-handling system.
Original Press Release:
New Generation of Flathoning Machines Significantly Increase Productivity
Wauconda, IL.....Stahli USA has introduced the next generation of high performance Flathoning machines into North America. The Model DLM 705, being displayed at IMTS 2004, features a whole new construction and allows for processing speeds in excess of 2 times existing models in the market. While maintaining the same sub-micron tolerances that Stahli is known for, the revolutionary design provides for enhanced stock removal rates and lower cost-per-part.
The unique dual-wheel design enables both sides of work-pieces to be ground simultaneously. With process controlled machining, integrated computer assisted measurement, and low wheel wear, an excellent cost-performance ratio is established. In the Stahli Flathoning process the same or greater precision is achieved with fixed abrasives compared to conventional loose abrasive lapping or grinding.
In most applications, the need for pre-machining or secondary grinding is eliminated. Work pieces are held in carriers enabling continuous loading/unloading which increases machine uptime. The open bridge style "05" series of Stahli DLM machines readily adapt for an automated or conveyorized workpiece handling system from both sides of the machine.
