Outstanding process power and throughput has reached a new dimension with the AC 700 HT Fine Grinding System – accompanied by numerous ready-to-go processes and economical automation solutions your cost per workpieces can now reach their all time low but keep the precision you already appreciate from our other Fine Grinding Systems of the microLine® range.
PETER WOLTERS research team has found the optimal power solution for your grinding challenge by optimizing the interaction of software, coolant supply temperature management, pressures and power of the drives. The result is extremely high cut rates that make you forget about any pre-grinding you had to do in addition in the past. Just combine stock removal and finishing into one, economical system.
Diskus double surface lateral grinding machine with vertical spindle.
This machine model is a steel-welded, box-frame design with greater rigidity than a comparable portal machine. The two vertical , directly driven motor spindles with liquid cooling each have an output of 23 kW to 48 kW. They are attached to rolling bearing compact carriages which perform all feed and return motions with a precision screw drive.
The machine version required for this application can be used as a plunge cut as well as throughfeed grinding machine. A number of parts can be ground simultaneously with the planetary drive provided with controlled rotation. While they are fed to the grinding tools using the plunge cut process in a planetary gear which rotates around its own axis. Replacement of the transport plate allows the same machine to be used for throughfeed grinding.
With SATURN double-disc surface grinding, two vertical grinding wheels simultaneously grind the workpiece on its parallel outer surfaces. The grinding wheels are set against each other at a slightly conical angle, so that as it passes from top to bottom, the workpiece retains its final dimension only in the bottom section of the grinding path. Because the workpieces are fed vertically between the grinding wheels, the bearing weight of the workpiece does not affect the grinding result. What’s more, the
coolant can simply drain downwards together with the removed material. The SATURN range comprises three
different machining processes:
- Rotation process
- Parallel grinding with linear through-feed
- Pendulum grinding

The SBS AEMS (Acoustical Emission Monitoring System) is the latest addition to the SB-4500 product. This optional add-in card for the SBS control system offers our customers the capability to monitor their grinding process with exceptional precision. The AEMS product uses proprietary acoustic sensor technology to monitor the very high frequency signals generated on the grinding machine structure during key events in the grinding process.
A properly balanced grinding wheel can improve the surface quality of individual parts and extend spindle life.
Marposs wheel balancer line is the best solution to continuously monitor the grinding wheel condition and immediately compensate any unbalancing during the cycle.
