Punch/Profile Grinder Enhancements
June 1, 2013
The Model 1500 Punch/Profile Grinder now features a heavy-duty polymer base and Unison's latest Version 7 software. The base is designed to provide enhanced vibration dampening characteristics to improve part finish for better dimensional accuracy.
The Model 1500's standard features allows grinding of round and non-round OD part shapes using either plunge or peel/profile grinding modes.
"Unison's latest software provides enhanced grinding capabilities and allows the Model 1500 to meet demanding grinding applications with fast cycle times," said a company spokesperson. The design of the Model 1500 along with its optional dressing system allows true and dress high performance diamond and CBN wheels as well as aluminum oxide."
The Unison Motion Control utilizes a Windows 7 Operating System along with Unison's software to monitor all critical machine functions and alerts the operator to any errors encountered during grinding. Errors are tracked and logged within the machine's control to diagnose the problem. Unison's Geometral software allows for quick customization of programs.
"The 1500 is equipped with AC digital servo motors and drive amplifiers that require no periodic maintenance or adjustments," said the spokesperson. "The high torque 29 Nm direct drive workhead maintains precise workpiece positioning during grinding by incorporating a 20 bit high resolution encoder."
Recent design changes to the Model 1500 have made the system more ergonomic for the machine operator, and the streamlined look integrates the control console into the upper enclosure to reduce the machine's overall floor space requirements.
