SOLITAIRE TWO AXIS CNC GRINDER CONTROLS 

Þ     

Solitaire has developed one of the most user friendly controls to

   Centerless Grinding application. The controls are operated by

  

   Siemens 802D CNC controller with Siemens hardware.  

Þ     

   The software is provided for Thrufeed and Infeed to allow flexibility of the
   operations. It is user friendly operator Interface Monitor  with easy to work 
   with software.  Simple G Code driven software.

Þ     

  The software is easily Programmable 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 and customized
   to suit different applications.  A stand alone enclosure is provided for the

 

   controls which can be installed on new or used grinders.

Þ     

    In case of used grinders, Solitaire can also rebuild your infeed and

  

    dresser slides prior to installation of attachment to ensure optimum 

    performance. 

Þ     

   Siemens AC Digital Brushless Servo Motor is  assembled with Alpha
   Germany Precision Gear Box of 10:1 ratio however other gear ratios 
    are available  for different applications. 

Þ     

   The axes are operated with the help of Precision Ground Ball Screws 
   with Preloaded Zero Backlash Nut Assembly. 

INFEED SLIDE AXIS (X AXIS)

Þ     

  This axis controls the infeed slide movement for grinding cycle.

    Þ        In case of thrufeed application, 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.
Þ   It can also compensate in size based on wheel wear, if history of data
  is generated for compensation between  two dress cycles.  

 

 GRINDING WHEEL DRESSER (Y & Z AXIS)

Þ     

  The grinder will be equipped with Z axis as  Servo motor for  infeed
  of diamond. 

Þ     

  The operator would be able to program the frequency of dressing,

   

  amount of dress per pass and number of passes. 
Þ   The Traverse of diamond across wheel width ( Y axis ) would still be 
  controlled by Hydraulics. However, it would have limit switches and 
  solenoid valves to dress automatically as per the command from 
   CNC controller. 
Þ    The profile on wheel will be generated as per the dressing template.
Þ    Automatic Dress compensation will take place after each dress cycle.

Þ     

   This axis controls the infeed slide movement for grinding cycle.

    Þ        In case of thrufeed application, 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.
Þ    It can also compensate in size based on wheel wear, if history of data
   is generated for compensation between  two dress cycles.
