The Importance of Workholding Flexibility
August 15, 2024
The Kapp Niles KX 300 P gear center offers machining flexibility due to various machining processes. The machine features direct drives in both the tool and workpiece spindles. Based on different tool and process technologies, user-specific, optimal production solutions can be configured. The tool spindle with counterbearing can hold dressable and non-dressable grinding worms or profile grinding wheels. Due to the use of auxiliary spindles small grinding wheels up to a minimum diameter of 25 mm can be used. Machines can be loaded either manually or automatically. The use of an integrated ring loader allows short loading times for both bore and shaft parts.
