CHP circular saw grinding machines released by Vollmer

For the universal sharpening of tungsten carbide-tipped (TCT) circular saw blades up to 840 or 1,300 mm diameter, Vollmer has launched its line of CHP840 and CHP1300 CNC grinding centres.

The four axes on Vollmer CHP machines permit the generation of all commonly used tooth features in a single cycle, including axial angles and group toothing geometries.

Having oscillation grinding as standard, along with motor driven hook and clearance angle adjustment, the CHP provides the flexibility to switch quickly from face to top grinding, says Vollmer. This productivity is enhanced by optimum motion co-ordination for short movements that reduce non-grinding times.

For the metalcutting market, the CHP840 and CHP 1300 incorporate a motor with variable grinding speed and offer an adjustable grinding barrel. Furthermore, the software includes negative tooth face geometries and chipbreaker machining as standard.
