The new S31 handles complex and versatile grinding tasks precisely and reliably. It can produce small to large workpieces in single batch, small or large series and is available with centre distances of 400 mm (15,7") / 650 mm (25.6") / 1000 mm (40") / 1600 mm (63") and a centre height of 175 mm (6.9"). With a high-resolution B-axis of 0.00005 °, the swiveling wheelhead makes efficient external, internal and face grinding possible in one setup.
The basis for the universal cylindrical grinding machine is the machine bed made of solid Granitan® S103. Thanks to its favorable thermal behavior this offers a high degree of dimensional stability, short-term temperature fluctuations are largely compensated for by the mineral casting. STUDER has redesigned the machine base geometry and supplemented it with an innovative machine base temperature control. This ensures a fast and stable production. The mounting of the dressing unit on the double T-slot of the longitudinal slide massively reduces the time needed for setup or changeover of the machine. Another highlight: The StuderGuide® guideways of the S31 have an additional convincing argument with its damping component in the direction of movement.
A wide range of wheelhead configurations.
The S31 is based on the STUDER T-Slide concept. It now has an extended X axis stroke of 370 mm (14.5") This allows for a variety of wheelhead variants. Configured exactly to the needs of the customer.
