FAQs of WMW SI 400 x 500 Heavy Duty Internal Grinder:
Q: How does the integral coolant system benefit the grinding process?
A: The integral coolant system helps maintain consistent temperatures, reduces thermal distortion, and removes grinding debris, which in turn extends tool life and ensures a finer surface finish during precision internal grinding operations.
Q: What is the process for adjusting the work head and wheel head movement?
A: The work head can be swiveled +/- 90 for versatile component setups, while the wheel head traverses up to 300 mm. Adjustments are made via conventional controls, allowing operators to align precisely for various bore grinding applications.
Q: When is the WMW SI 400 x 500 most effectively used?
A: This grinder is ideal when high-precision internal bore grinding is required on large or heavy workpieces, particularly for achieving fine surface finishes and strict dimensional tolerances in industrial and manufacturing environments.
Q: Where can the WMW SI 400 x 500 be installed and operated?
A: Designed for industrial settings, this machine requires floor space of approximately 3200 mm x 1960 mm x 1620 mm and access to a 415 V, 10 kVA electrical supply. Its suitable for production floors involved in machining and heavy-duty component manufacturing.
Q: What materials are suitable for grinding using this machine?
A: The SI 400 x 500 is engineered for materials such as cast iron and graded steel, ensuring that it meets the needs of sectors requiring robust, high-precision internal grinding performance.
Q: How does the semi-automatic control improve usability?
A: Semi-automatic controls enable greater operator efficiency by automating key movements while retaining manual adjustment for fine-tuning. This balance helps achieve consistent results without extensive programming or setup.
Q: What are the advantages of the electro-magnetic chuck during grinding operations?
A: The electro-magnetic chuck securely holds ferromagnetic workpieces, minimizing vibration and slippage during internal grinding. This enhances operational safety and enables high-precision results across various component geometries.
