OverviewThe RSM C series are precision cylindrical grinding machines engineered for long and heavy workpieces. Suitable for single-part machining and small-series production, the machines include an internal grinding device and a classic robust design with a large machine bed, precision-ground guideways and powerful drives for work spindle, grinding spindle and hydraulic unit.
Highlights- External and internal cylindrical grinding
- Hydrostatic spindle bearings for high surface quality
- Heavy machine frame for large and heavy workpieces
- Swiveling headstock for conical grinding of short parts
- Integrated rapid feed on X-axis with manual return
- Comprehensive package of standard accessories
Product details- Large heavy-duty machine bed accommodates workpieces up to 2,000 mm in some configurations and diameters up to 320 mm
- Wide precision-ground guideways ensure accuracy along the full workpiece length and support high weights
- Table with large dimensions swivels in two directions; movement via hand-wheel or automatic linear hydraulic feed
- Robust feed valve enables very precise micro-feed control on Z axis with operator-adjustable dwell at end of table travel
- Automatic feed in two steps, limited by an adjustable stop
