Exceptional Lapping PrecisionAchieve ultra-fine mirror finishes with 0.003 mm accuracy thanks to the precision ground cast iron working surfaces and robust design of the JS-CLM Centre Lapping Machine. The machines stepless spindle speed and pressure adjustment cater to different material requirements, ensuring optimal results on hardened shafts and spindles.
Versatile and High-Performance DesignBuilt for versatility, the JS-CLM can work with cast iron, steel, and brass, accommodating workpieces up to 300 mm in length and 40 mm in diameter. The combination of manual and semi-automatic operation modes, along with universal workpiece holders and included dressing tool, supports a wide range of lapping and finishing applications.
Safety, Reliability, and Low MaintenanceOperator safety is prioritized with an emergency stop switch, overload relay, dust covers, and a heavy-duty frame. Low and simple maintenance is achieved through manual lubrication and periodic checks, while the integrated coolant tray maintains optimal working temperatures. This ensures reliable and sustained performance in high-intensity environments.
FAQs of Jones and Shipman Centre Lapping Machine:
Q: How does the Jones and Shipman Centre Lapping Machine ensure high-precision finishing?
A: The JS-CLM uses a precision ground cast iron lapping wheel and a stepless spindle speed, combined with adjustable pressure (up to 250 kg/cm), to consistently achieve ultra-fine mirror finishes with an accuracy of 0.003 mm.
Q: What types of workpieces and materials can the machine handle?
A: It is designed for centre lapping of hardened shafts and spindles up to 300 mm in length and 40 mm in diameter, catering to materials like cast iron, steel, and brass, making it highly versatile for several manufacturing needs.
Q: When should periodic maintenance be performed on this machine?
A: Simple periodic checks such as cleaning, manual lubrication, and inspection of the drive system and safety features should be carried out according to the manufacturers recommendations to ensure smooth and reliable operation.
Q: Where is the JS-CLM typically installed and used?
A: This floor-mounted machine is ideal for precision engineering workshops, manufacturing plants, or production facilities needing high-quality centre lapping of components like shafts and spindles.
Q: What is the typical process for using the centre lapping machine?
A: Place the workpiece in the universal holder, select the required settings such as spindle speed and pressure using manual controls, operate the machine in manual or semi-automatic mode, and use the integrated coolant tray to manage heat during lapping. Monitor the process and use the emergency stop switch if required.
Q: How does the machine benefit users in terms of productivity and safety?
A: With a production capacity of up to 80 pieces per hour and integrated safety features like an emergency stop switch, overload relay, and dust covers, the JS-CLM ensures both high output and operator safety, making it a reliable choice for demanding production environments.
