Mate Precision ValuGrind sharpens punch press tooling
Mate Precision Tooling's ValuGrind is a high precision grinder for easy punch and die maintenance.
ValuGrind lets fabricators precisely regrind punches and dies to maintain optimum condition for the highest quality parts production.
Available for either Thick Turret or Trumpf style tooling, ValuGrind comes completely fixture and has many claimed unique features, making it the preferred system to use with Mate tooling, including:
• Extra large 165 mm diameter diamond grinding wheel for optimal punch and die finish, which ensures superior surface flatness, compared to standard 125mm CBN and ceramic grinding wheels.
• Inner wheel cooling system places coolant directly where needed, reducing excessive heat build-up that could damage the tooling.
• Powerful 1,050 W motor delivers 4,050 rpm for high speed, precise surface finish. Competitive grinders operate with slower, less powerful 550 and 750 rpm motors.
• Precise grind depth control is easily set in 0.02 mm increments for a precise finish to avoid overgrinding.
• Compact, portable tabletop design (820 by 520 by 675 mm) makes ValuGrind easy to operate where space is limited.
• Handles all of Mate's thick turret tooling styles, including Original, AMX, MT, MTG, MTG Long, MXC, Ultra and all A through E station sizes. (Also handles equivalent sized competitor thick turret tooling).
• Handles all of Mate's Size 1 and Size 2 Trumpf style tooling products, including Next, QuickLock and Multi Tool tooling. (Also handles equivalent sized competitor Trumpf style tooling.
