The Efficient for the highest tolerances
The STUDER S12 production cylindrical grinding machine with a distance between centres of 150 mm, a height of centres of 175 mm and a grinding wheel diameter of 500 mm has been targeted at 'Precision without compromise'. The basic concept of the S12 has been uncompromisingly tailored to precision. At the heart of the machine are high precision positionable linear motors and a completely new (patent pending) drive & guide system. The extremely rigid slides with hydrostatic bearings are magnetically pre-tensioned and the in-feed movement can be programmed in 10-nanometer steps.
Highly dynamic axis drives with linear motor technology, short response times, short travels and fast integrated loading systems make the S12 the new standard for precision and productivity. This is further helped by the high-speed grinding (HSG) option with circumferential speeds of up to 140 m/sec.
Characteristics:
- X axis configuration 0 degree or 30 degree
- Cross-slide X: hydrostatic with linear motors or anti-friction guideways with balls crews
- Longitudinal slide Z: hydrostatic with linear motors or guides with patented surface integrity and ball screws
- C axis for the workhead †
- Internal grinding unit with own cross slide
- Simultaneous internal / external machine possible
- Machine base of 'Granitan'.
- Application specific workhead concepts (hydrostatic, motor spindle)
- Additional NC axis for profiling the grinding wheel
- Full enclosure with new door concept optimum accessibility
- Extremely easy programming with StuderWIN on Siemens 840D or Fanuc 310i-A
- StuderGRIND programming software for producing grinding and dressing programs on a PC
- Extensive range of accessories
- Standardised interfaces for loader and peripheral devices
