Horizontal Turn-Grind Center C200
Grinding with the INDEX C series
The clearly structured work area ensures convenient access and allows the use of a straight or slant external grinding wheel.
The machine concept enables simultaneous front and rear end machining or clamping between centers. Thanks to the Y-axis as standard equipment on the lower turret, flat grinding with live tool holders is possible.
- Highest rigidity and precison
- Dressing cycles, wheel contact detection and grinding wheel balancing are fully automated
- Automatic workpiece loading and unloading with workpiece handling unit INDEX WHU/WHW
- In-process measuring system
The result speaks for itself:
- Grinding roundness: 0,1 to 0,5 μm
- Roughness Ra: 0,1 to 0,4 μm
- Roughness Rz: 1 to 3 μm
Grinding components from the modular building block system
The added value in the machine layout typical for INDEX shows itself with the C200: The grinding technology is integrated into the existing basic version of the machine, without having to design a completely new machine. Once again the high precision of the standard machine appreciated by many users turned out to be an advantage, since the system extension of the standard machine did not require any change to the basic structure. The result is a complete machining center showing all the features of modern process integration. Hard turning and grinding on a single machine. With this machine, the user does not have to make any compromise. The existing full turning functionality of the work spindles and the turret is maintained.
Optimal conditions for safe complete machining
The new complete machining center is suitable for all areas of application where highest precision is essential. The control software has a special programming interface for grinding. The automatic workpiece measurement offers all the advantages of inprocess measurement and of all post-process measurements.
