Helitronic Power Diamond 400 Offers Greater Workpiece Space
United Grinding’s Helitronic Power Diamond 400 grinding and eroding machine features remodeled machine beds with enhanced rigidity for greater vibration dampening for improved part surface finishes that also ensure greater precision.
United Grinding’s Helitronic Power Diamond 400 grinding and eroding machine offers 35 percent more workpiece space with the capability to grind tools up to 380 mm (14.96”) in length. It also features remodeled machine beds with enhanced rigidity for greater vibration dampening for improved part surface finishes and to ensure greater precision.
A worm drive for the C axis, optional torque motor and pneumatically driven steadyrests and tailstocks from the Helitronic Vision series all reduce leaks and improve heat management for cleanliness. Also from Helitronic Vision, Walter’s Robot Loader 25 is now available for the redesigned models for tools weighing more than 25 kg (55.12 lbs).
The machine can accommodate gantry-style loaders for up to 500 tools or robot loaders for up to 7,500 tools. It is a two-in-one machine that uses fine pulse technology. It also uses the Helitronic Tool Studio grinding and eroding software.
