Knuth #HFS-F-NC, Surface Grinder

• The massive, heavily ribbed cross-bed machine frame with traversing column and horizontal spindle is extremely rigid even under heaviest workpiece loads
• The large work area allows machining of single workpieces with large surface areas or maching of several workpieces in one setup
• The workspace is protected by an easily accessible enclosure
• A high-performance cooling system is included in the standard equipment of this series

Control

• Grinding cycles for automatic face and groove grinding are accessible and editable via touchscreen
• Preloaded ball screws and powerful servo-motors in Y and X ensure high precision and repeatability during grinding wheel feeds
• An electronic hand-wheel for Y and X axis simplifies setup and manual positioning of the grinding spindle
• If set to Auto mode, the user-defined roughing and finishing parameters, number of spark-out strokes, and return to zero are automatically processed

Grinding spindle

• Large grinding spindle, dynamically balanced, completely sealed with permanent lubrication
• Preloaded precision-bearings ensure maximum grinding performance and high reliability over many production hours

Hydraulics

• Superior quiet operation and low heat build-up ensure optimum work results in continuous operations
• The hydraulic linear table feed is infinitely variable, maintains a constant speed with smooth travel direction reversals
• The external hydraulics unit with oil cooler ensures perfect temperature stability

Magnetic clamping plate

• Large magnetic chucks for torsion-free clamping across the entire work surface are included in the standard equipment
• The modern control also ensures reliable operation with firm holding forces and high-grade degaussing
