Grinding Machine for Sickle-shaped and Circular Knives A 75

The A 75 sickle and circular knife grinding machine grinds sickle shaped knives of all brands up to 1000 mm (39.4 in) and circular knives up to dia. 1000 mm (39.4 in). The machine is simple and easy to operate via touch panel. It provides highest grinding precision.

Precise cutting edges


Perfect cuts


Absolute repeat accuracy


Cutting tools ground with the A 75 minimize the scrap rate of the cut product. It makes an important contribution to production reliability and quality assurance.

The grinding angle is set continuously on both sides between -5° and 35° via servo drives. The repeat accuracy is 0.1 degrees. Calling up the required grinding program, the A 75 automatically sets itself to the saved angles.

A coolant unit with a capacity of 20 l efficiently prevents the cutting tools from overheating during the grinding process.

The advantages at a glance

Knife holding fixture and knife drive

Knife holding fixture and knife drive

The cutting tools are clamped on universal knife holding fixtures. The grinding feed and the precise rolling of the slicer knives on the grinding wheels are performed by servo drives. This technology ensures nearly wear-free operation of the A 75.

Five servomotor driven axes create precise cutting edges with maximum repeat accuracy. The cutting tools retain the exact same shape over their entire service life. The exactly adjustable grinding pressure is applied pneumatically. The material removal on the slicer knives is minimal.

Circular knives up to 1000 mm (39.8 in)

Circular knives up to 1000 mm (39.8 in)

The A 75 grinds circular knives of all brands from 250-1000 mm (8.8 – 39.4 in) diameter with single and double beveled cutting edges. Here, too, the following applies: Precise grinding, perfect cutting edge angles, absolutely repeatable accurate.

Operation

Operation

The A 75 is easy and comfortable to operate via touch panel. For each slicer knife, an individual grinding program consisting of the number of grinding cycles and the selected cutting edge angle is created and stored. When the program is called, the machine automatically adjusts to these values. The required grinding wheels are also shown on the display. The number of grinding programs is unlimited. Updates and remote maintenance are carried out via the Internet.
