Manual Surface Grinding Machine

Manual Surface Grinder Specifications

Manual surface grinding machines are versatile tools used for precision surface finishing and grinding operations on various workpieces. They feature a flat grinding wheel rotating at high speeds to remove material from the surface of a workpiece, producing smooth and flat surfaces with tight tolerances. These machines are widely used in workshops, tool rooms, and manufacturing facilities for producing precision components with fine surface finishes.

Key Features:

• Flat Grinding Wheel: Equipped with a flat grinding wheel made of abrasive materials such as aluminum oxide or silicon carbide for removing material from the workpiece surface.
• Manual Control: Operated manually by the operator to control the movement and feed of the grinding wheel across the workpiece surface.
• Adjustable Worktable: Features a worktable that can be adjusted in height and tilted to accommodate different workpiece sizes and grinding angles.
• Crossfeed and Downfeed Mechanisms: Provides precise control over the grinding wheel movement in both the horizontal (crossfeed) and vertical (downfeed) directions.
• Coolant System: Optional feature for cooling the grinding wheel and workpiece during grinding operations, reducing heat generation and improving surface finish.
• Magnetic Chuck: Secures the workpiece to the worktable using magnetic force, ensuring stability and precision during grinding operations.
• Digital Readout (DRO) System: Optional feature for precise measurement and monitoring of grinding parameters, enhancing accuracy and productivity.

Applications:

• Surface Grinding: Producing flat and smooth surfaces on workpieces with tight tolerances and fine surface finishes.
• Precision Machining: Grinding precision components such as dies, molds, and tooling inserts for various industries including aerospace, automotive, and medical.
• Tool Room Operations: Grinding tooling inserts, jigs, fixtures, and prototypes with tight tolerances and fine surface finishes.
• Maintenance and Repair: Grinding existing parts and equipment to restore flatness, parallelism, and surface finish for maintenance and repair purposes.
• Educational Training: Providing hands-on learning experiences for students and apprentices to develop grinding skills and understand surface grinding processes.

Advantages:

• Precision and Accuracy: Provides accurate and consistent surface finishes with tight tolerances, meeting the most stringent quality standards.
• Versatility: Capable of grinding a wide range of materials including metals, plastics, and composites, offering versatility in surface finishing tasks.
• Efficiency: Offers efficient surface grinding operations with precise control over grinding parameters and feed rates.
• Ease of Use: User-friendly controls and intuitive operation make these machines ideal for operators of all skill levels.
• Cost-effectiveness: Provides a cost-efficient solution for surface finishing tasks, reducing the need for outsourcing and improving workflow efficiency.
