External Cylindrical Grinding Machines
For hollow shafts and similar components when the bore and O / D have to be precisely aligned, the workpieces are complete-machined – i.e. ready to install – on the HG 208 CD Center Drive Grinder. Possible components are the gear shafts used in transmission systems for modern passenger cars.
The External Cylindrical Grinder simultaneously grinds the hollow shafts internally and externally, in a single set-up. This method is considerably more precise than grinding the component on two separate machines.
The EMAG Grinder HG 208 CD – External and Internal Machining in a Single Set-Up
The External Cylindrical Grinder HG 208 CD machines hollow shafts with a length of up to 400 mm (16 in). The Center Drive Grinder is equipped with two internal and two external grinding spindles mounted on two compound slides that each features a B-axis.
This configuration allows the internal grinding of bores, end faces and tapers.
