The S100 is suitable for grinding geometrically defined basic forms and contours for a wide range of parts, all of which can be generated with the machine’s interpolating axes.
Studer, a brand of United Grinding, presents the new S100. This high-precision, flexible, reliable universal internal cylindrical grinding machine is said to be ideal for the entry-level market. Curing Oven Large Space
Like all Studer cylindrical grinding machines, the S100 has a machine bed made of Granitan, which features dampening and thermal characteristics that provide consistent, precise grinding results. During the development process, special attention was given to designing components that are uncomplicated and efficient, making operation and maintenance easy for the operator. The features built into the S100 make it suitable for grinding geometrically defined basic forms and contours for a wide range of parts, all of which can be generated with the machine’s interpolating axes.
The S100 can be equipped with up to two internal grinding spindles, or one internal and one external spindle. In addition to a fixed wheelhead, it can be supplied with a manual wheelhead and a 2.5-degree Hirth coupling. The optimal combination consists of an automatic wheelhead with a 1-degree Hirth. A synchronous motor drives the grease-lubricated internal and external belt spindles. The machine is operated by the FANUC 0i-TF Plus controller, together with the proven Studer operating system.
The S100 is also available with automation equipment options, including a loading interface and an automatic sliding door, enabling automatic operation for large production runs.
Typical workpieces for production on the S100 include collets for toolmaking, bearing rings, ball bearings and cylinders, as well as hydraulic control valves in small runs. External and internal machining of flange parts or grinding of threads or non-circular forms are also possible.
