The Peitzmeier-Maschinenbau Omni-Grind product portfolio includes standard machines with two modular machine types available, the Omni-Grind Twin and the Omni-Grind Portal.
The Omni-Grind Twin is a twin-belt grinding machine for flexible and efficient processing of small to medium sized parts. It can have table lengths of 2, 3, 4 or 5 m and widths of 1 or 2 m, while table height is adjustable from 0.7 to 1.2 m. Modules are available for grinding, polishing, deburring and bevelling. Automation varies from a manual table drive and programmable tools to automatic part processing. The control and all modules can be configured and retro-fitted at any time.
Complementing this is the new Omni-Grind Portal (see image and video), which likewise has 2 to 5 m table length with a width of 1 or 2 m, but can accommodate larger parts. This is possible through the height adjustment system that allows the Portal range to adjust from 1.5 to 2.5 m. The parts can be handled via a table, swivelling device of a scissor-lift table.
Says Ellesco managing director Guy Newton: “Compared to our previous supplier, the Peitzmeier range is significantly more attractive from a price-point perspective. Furthermore, the Peitzmeier machines are completely autonomous with the needs of the end user. If a customer wants a standard machine today with a view to possibly re-configuring the machine in the future, it is a feasible option that we couldn't previously accommodate. The level and ease of retro-fitting is also attractive for customers. With minimal effort, the Peitzmeier machines can have their dimensional capacity re-configured or automation solutions added. This modular design will prove attractive to end users as it 'future-proofs' their investment with the potential to alter the machine according to the changing demands of the business.”
