The main structure is analyzed by the finite element technique with different combination of external forces to ensure the stiffness of the machine. The base of the grinder is expanded, increasing the table load capacity and the stability. A full-support rail design reinforces the stability and thus precision of the machine. The spindle runs in a class P4 high precision angular contact bearing, assuring run-out accuracy within 2 μm. The cartridge-type spindle is completely sealed and lubricated for high accuracy grinding and a long service life. Featuring cross stroke adjustment for X & Z axes. Travel setting by joystick allows for feed speed adjustment according to the workpiece type for increased convenience of operation. Pre-programmed grinding modes on the optional AD5 controller include Surface, Crisscross, Plunge, and Pitch (same pitch and same depth) grinding are standard. The 3 axes CNC control is necessary for contour grinding. Table dressing is standard.

The F-Grind A series of surface grinding machines feature a heavy, stiffened cast frame with superior dampening properties ensuring a smooth end product. It also features a grinding spindle running in preloaded precision angular contact ball bearings, The automatic transverse and longitudinal feeds are matched with the high positioning accuracy of the vertical axis by an AC servo-motor and recirculating ball screw.

The table guideways are hardened, ground, and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coated for very high wear resistance, and the table features a high load capacity for heavy work pieces. With adjustable roughing and finishing parameters, delivery of the vertical axis manually via handwheel, and rapid traverse to the desired working height, the F-Grind A series is the ideal surface grinder for a variety of applications.

With Auto down feed AD5(NC) standard, the F-Grind V series boasts automatic feed in the X, Y, and Z with an AC servo motor and recirculating ball screw for high positioning accuracy. The rapid traverse function can be set to the desired working height and both the rough/finish parameters are adjustable. The grinding spindle runs in heavy-duty, preloaded angular contact ball bearings.

The hydraulic table movement is in the longitudinal axis and the table guideways are hardened, ground and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coated for very high wear resistance. A combination of flat and V-guides for the table longitudinal feed, with the double V guides utilized for the cross travel. The high table load capacity is in place to accommodate heavy work pieces.
