Technical Specification
Technical Description of the Base Machine
In contrast to cylindrical grinding machines for lighter machining, where the workpiece is often rotated by a tailstock drive, this machine type features a rotating grinding wheel with a feed movement.
This machine enables internal and external grinding of heavy workpieces between centers. The rotation of the workpiece is carried out via the headstock.

Max. grinding wheel diameter with 300 mm wheel width: 900 mm

Max. grinding wheel diameter with 100 mm wheel width: 900 mm

Center distance (between centers): 8000 mm

Max. workpiece diameter between centers: 1300 mm

Max. workpiece weight in steady rest position: 22000 kg

Max. workpiece weight between centers (with 600 mm journal diameter): 18000 kg

Connected load: 85 kVA

SPINDLE BOX
