Grinding wheel balancing
The increase in the speed of rotation of the spindle on grinders has been a constant trend in recent years, just as the machine’s capacity to achieve a superior quality part surface finish is increasingly important.
In this context, it is essential to control the vibrations induced in the machine as an effect of the imbalance of mechanical parts and the rotating grinding wheel.
Conditions:
- Do you have machine instability with high vibrations ?
- Do you have part quality issues?
- Do you need to increase wheel cutting speed?
- Does your wheel last not long enough?
- Does your spindle need frequent repair?
- Do you need to reduce maintenance cost?
Solution:
Marposs wheel balancer line is the best solution to continuously monitor the grinding wheel condition and immediately compensate any unbalancing during the cycle.
Marposs supply both external and internal (spindle type) balancing heads and supporting electronics with either hard wired and infrared communication capability.All the heads are connectable to electronic instruments that processes and display the signals.
Benefits:
- Improve mechanical stability of any grinder
- Improve surface finishing quality of any part; avoids risk of chatters, out of roundness and roughness defects
- Increase wheel surface and cutting speed
- Increase quantity of parts ground with the same wheel
- Reduce the load and stress of the spindle bearings
- Stabilize the machine at virtual free-vibrations that is the best condition for production continuity and cut of maintenance costs
