AZ RU universal grinding machines are high performance machines designed for customers who have to work with high precision tolerances. Constructive features are projected to ensure maximum machine stability during all the process phases. Thanks to a wide combination of wheelhead spindles, different types of machining can be integrated in a single clamping: external, internal, shoulder, face and taper grinding. The grinding process is constantly monitored thanks to high-level and last-generation measurement and controls systems. The RU machines range meets the requests of a wide range of industries: aerospace, railways, automotive, energy, precision mechanical components.
