Surface Grinding

Full control over flat and cross grinding. Optimized cycles for a perfect surface finish:

fagor automation surface grinding

Features and Capabilities:

  • Tangential surface grinding.

  • Grinding strategies: Criss Cross, Step Cross and Vertical Plongee.

  • Automatic or manual depth of cut (with handwheel) …

  • Option to define two machining stages with specific conditions: roughing and finishing.

  • Interactive guide to selecting the appropriate grinding wheel and performing stone dressing operations.

  • Grinding wheel definition page and magazine option with up to four positions.

  • Simple definition of the grinding wheel's geometry or shape.

Available Cycles:

  • Criss Cross: cycle with zigzag reciprocating movements, when the width of the grinding wheel is smaller than the surface to be ground.

  • Criss Cross Manual: cycle with zigzag reciprocating movements, but the penetration movement is performed manualy, i.e. by means of a handwheel.

  • Step Cross: cycle with step-by-step reciprocating movements, when the width of the grinding wheel is smaller than the surface to be ground.

  • Vertical Plunge: immersion cycle along the Y and Z axes.

  • Vertical Plunge Manual: immersion cycle along the Y and Z axes, but the penetration movement is performed manualy, i.e. by means of a handwheel.

  • Modelling or dressing cycle: enables the dressing or modelling of the grinding wheels available on the machine to keep the correct profile and ensure proper grinding.

  • Dresser Offset: process for capturing the dresser-wheel zero.

  • Workpiece Offset: process for capturing the workpiece-wheel zero.
