EMAG: HG 2

The machining system for the external cylindrical grinding of precision shaft-type components

The HG series has been designed for the cylindrical grinding of precision shaft-type components. This includes engine, transmission and hydraulics components as well as shafts for electric motors, compressors and wind power generators. The machine accommodates all modern grinding technologies and guarantees the flexibility required to respond quickly to workpiece changes.

The HG 2 machines workpieces of up to 600 mm in length. The high static and dynamic rigidity of its thermostable cast iron machine base guarantees excellent manufacturing quality. The generous dimensions of the machining area offer easy access and accommodate extensive axis movements. Linear motion guideway systems allow for small infeeds and excellent continuity of movement. These stick-slip-free and well dampened infeeds lead to exceptional contour integrity and outstanding surface finishes.

Advantages

A high-powered wheel drive shortens machining times
A contact and crash recognition and wheel balancing system monitors the grinding process
An in-process gauging control checks O/Ds and the longitudinal position on shoulders
Operator and setter menus simplify handling
High-precision, sturdy linear roller guiderails in all axes guarantee the longevity of the machine
Absolute measuring systems (linear glass scales) in all axes ensure machining accuracy
An NC tailstock with large stroke makes for easy resetting
Short idle times lead to high productivity levels
An operator-friendly workpiece error correction system automatically rectifies dimensional errors
Large doors give optimal access, thus reducing the distance between operator and workpiece
