“The combination of manual operation and automated functions allows operators to make the most of their experience while benefiting from the precision of the control system,” explains Andreas Hessling, Technical Sales Manager at EMAG Weiss, in an interview. The hydraulic-free W 11-EVO cylindrical grinding machine addresses key customer requirements: minimized energy costs thanks to servo-electric axes, highest precision thanks to scraped V-flat guides and an intuitive touch control for quick machine settings. The sophisticated operating concept shows its strengths particularly in the economical production of prototypes and individual parts. The operator retains direct control over the sanding process thanks to handwheels, while the servo-controlled axes ensure precision positioning and reproducible results.
Precise, compact and cost-effective – these are the criteria that have made the WPG 7 external cylindrical grinding machine from EMAG WEISS a great success on the market. It requires minimal floor space and can also be installed quickly, but at the same time features a whole range of high-tech components for flexibility and productivity. What characterizes the machine in detail? Our grinding expert Andreas Holstein provides the answers in this interview.
