Advanced Control and Stability for Superior Grinding

Simultaneous C-axis and X-axis control enables the production of exceptionally smooth and precise machined surfaces, while the direct-drive wheel spindle delivers outstanding accuracy with every cycle. To further enhance quality, high-precision coolant systems are integrated to minimize grinding defects, ensuring consistent surface finishes even under demanding conditions. In addition, the wheelhead is engineered with reduced thermal displacement, maintaining stability and precision over long production runs for uncompromising performance.
