The machine is able to grind OD/ID and faces all-in-one part chucking with guaranteed machine roundness accuracy of less than .00004". The machine has opposing twin wheel spindles. One is a larger, heavy-duty spindle dedicated to OD and face grinding that uses a 14" diameter wheel, and the other spindle is used primarily for ID and face grinding. Both grinding spindles are high-frequency. The optional pallet changer increases productivity by improving the spindle runtime. Parts can be loaded onto a fixture outside of the machine while the machine is running. Machinists can add an available part-clocking station with a dummy spindle, which enables parts to be rotated and "clocked-in" at the part- loading station. Machinists can run multiple jobs simultaneously by registering and setting different workpieces outside of the machine, which automatically selects programs and tooling for a different workpiece. Being able to run dif- ferent jobs through the machine at the same time improves productivity and throughput. DMG MORI / 847-593-5400 / dmgmori.com Clamping System Streamlines Palletizing and Clamping to Reduce Setup Time Röhm says its Power-Grip Zero Point Clamping System delivers both pallet- izing and clamping capabilities—all with one device and in single setups—to significantly increase productivity, process reliability and precision, as well as cut set-up times by as much as 90 percent. According to Röhm, the new modular palletizing system is customizable to make the best use of a machine tool's entire work-envelope space. Machine tool output also increases because the system makes it possible for workpieces to be positioned and clamped on the pallet outside the machine tool while it continues to work.
