3-Axis Peel Grinder



Rollomatic, a machine tool manufacturer based in Le Landeron, Switzerland, exhibited its new ShapeSmart peel grinding machine at IMTS 2014. The ShapeSmart NP3 is a single-wheel cylindrical grinder with peel and traverse grinding capabilities. It is suitable for manufacturing blanks for the cutting tool industry, precision punches and other similar parts.

"The peeling grinding method provides the ability to grind tools with extreme length/diameter ratio as well as complex profiles," said a company spokesperson. "In addition, the rigid design of this machine, equipped with a powerful 8.5 kW spindle motor and a wheel diameter of 250 mm (10 inches), allows grinding of parts requiring high material removal."

Features include:

  • Includes as standard an integrated 3-axis pick-and-place parts loader
  • Renishaw probe as on option to touch on the end of finished cutting tools
  • Neck grinding of finished cutting tools, such as long-reach necked molding endmills
  • Form grinding of cutting tools blanks for the industrial, medical and dental market.
