SOLITAIRE MACHINE TOOLS LIMITED

SOLITAIRE FIVE AXIS CNC GRINDER CONTROLS

Þ	Solitaire has developed one of the most user friendly controls dedicated
	to Centerless Grinding application. The controls are operated by
	Siemens 802D CNC controller with Siemens hardware.
Þ	The software is provided for Infeed to allow flexibility of the
	operations. The system consists of operator Interface Monitor with
	Simple G Code driven software.
Þ	The software can be Programmed to generate steps, tapers, radii
	and crown on grinding wheel and can be customized to suit application.
Þ	The software can be integrated with various CNC options.
	A stand alone enclosure is provided for the controls which can be
	installed used grinders.
Þ	Siemens AC Digital Brushless Servo Motor will be used for all the 5
	CNC axes.
Þ	The axes are operated with the help of Precision Ground Ball Screws
	with Preloaded Zero Backlash Nut Assembly.
Þ	The infeed program allows load, rough, semi finish and finish diameter
	set up with individual feed rate for each step of the way in each grinding
	cycle. The spark out time, load time and dwell time after rough grinding
	can be programmed and can be set up for single or auto cycle.

INFEED SLIDE AXIS (X AXIS)

Þ	This axis controls the infeed slide movement for grinding cycle.
Þ	The operator can set feed rate for grinding.
Þ	Three different feed rate and diameters are possible in each grinding cycle,
	namely for pre-grind, rough grind and finish grind.
Þ	The dwell time for loading and spark out can also be programmed.
	The infeed slides can be compensated for size adjustment in the
	increment of 0 .001 mm or one micron.
Þ	The compensation can be done manually or automatically as provided
	for the grinder.
	TWO AXES CNC REGULATING WHEEL DRESSER (Y&Z AXES)
Þ	The grinder will be equipped with 2 axes CNC Grinding Wheel Dresser.
Þ	Precision frictionless roller slides will be installed for traverse
	axes ( Y axis ) and honed housing and precision ground quill
	assembly for accurate advance of diamond ( Z axis).
Þ	Both the axes can be interpolated based on the G-Codes written,
Þ	to generate the required profile on the grinding wheel.
Þ	This axis will be integrated with Servo Infeed assembly and other
	CNC options.
Þ	Dress compensation provided incase of integration with
	Servo infeed attachment.
	TWO AXES CNC REGULATING WHEEL DRESSER (A&B AXES)
Þ	The grinder will be equipped with 2 axes CNC Regulating Wheel Dresser.
Þ	Precision frictionless roller slides will be installed for traverse axes
	(A axis) and honed housing and precision ground quill assembly
	for accurate advance of diamond (B axis).
Þ	Both the axes can be interpolated based on the G-Codes written,
	To generate the required profile on the regulating wheel.
	This axis will be integrated with Servo Infeed assembly and other CNC options.
	Dress compensation provided in case of integration with Servo infeed
	attachment.
