An innovative touch HMI software solution was also presented to the public for the first time, which can be adapted equally across all series and is easy and logically intuitive for the operator to use. Regardless of whether the focus of machining is internal grinding or external grinding.
The Kellenberger 100 will be shown with an automation solution specially developed for this machine by Swiss manufacturer Wenger. The machine offers a wide range of configuration options for the most diverse grinding operations and thus enables a strong customer orientation. A new assembly concept and an optimised production of the machine result in a reduction of throughput time and consequently in a very good price/performance ratio.
The Kellenberger 100 is available in centre widths of 1000 and 600mm with a centre height of 200mm and is designed for workpiece weights of up to 150 kg. A high drive power of the grinding wheel ensures high productivity, the new Z-guide delivers high profile accuracy. The C-axis with direct drive brings higher accuracy for non-circular grinding.
The performance spectrum of the Kellenberger 1000 universal cylindrical grinding machine is oriented towards the high demands of precision production of prototypes as well as small and medium series, e.g. in tool and mould making, the automotive and electrical industries and the aircraft industry. The solid machine table with the reinforced machine bed provides very high rigidity and stability, prerequisites for high precision. Workpieces weighing up to 300 kg can be machined.
Over 30 grinding head variants with external and internal grinding spindles are standard on the Kellenberger 1000. The optional centre heights of 200/250 and 300mm and centre widths of 1000/1600mm expand the machining possibilities considerably and allow a wide range of application-specific configurations.
