Chevalier FSG-3A818 Surface Grinder Highlights
- Automatic Wheelhead Downfeed: Motorized Y-axis downfeed in increments of 0.0001" to 0.0002" (0.002 to 0.04 mm), reducing operator intervention compared to semi-automatic models.
- Hydraulic Table Drive: A specially designed hydraulic system drives the table, giving smooth, accurate, and efficient table movement at 5 to 25 m/min (16 to 82 fpm).
- Electronic Non-Contact Table Reverser: Set the table stroke for each workpiece to save grinding time and get higher grinding efficiency.
- Automatic Crossfeed: Automatic transverse movement of 0.4 to 6 mm (0.02" to 0.24") at up to 37 ipm.
- Cartridge-Type Spindle: Four Class 7 (P4) super-precision angular contact ball bearings are preloaded and assembled in a temperature-controlled room for grinding accuracy and surface finish.
