mmsonline.com April 2017 MMS 159 MODERN EQUIPMENT REVIEW Spotlight: Grinding internal gear teeth. As in the case of ex ternal gears, this new internal gear teeth technology works with a multi-rib grinding disc system that can perform rough- and finish-grinding. Grinding discs made of dressable corundum or electroplated CBN can be used in conjunction with the spindle. Liebherr Gear Technology Inc., call 734-429- 7225 or visit liebherr.com. MULTITASKING GRINDING, MACHINING CENTER PROMOTES PRODUCTIVITY As a five- or six-axis system, the Mägerle MFP 50 CD grinding and machining center from United Grinding offers capability to mill, drill and grind challenging workpieces in a single clamping. Spindle speeds as high as 10,000 rpm con- tribute to high machining precision, while gener- ous machining clearance prevents collisions b e t w e e n t h e w h e e l f l a n g e a n d w o r k p i e c e, the company says. Grinding wheels mounted at the front of the spindle and automatic position- ing of the diamond rolls in the direction of the Z axis to change the profile provide the neces- sary clearance. The coolant nozzle, controllable via two axes, allows unrestricted freedom of movement and precise positioning of the coolant jet. Water-cooled, direct-drive grinding spindle motors ensure per- formance in demanding continuous operation. An optional balancing system dynamically balances unequal forces in the rotating grinding wheel to improve accuracy and prolong wheel life.
