The Peter Wolters AC 2000 double-sided batch processing machine is designed for high-precision series production of workpieces. Thanks to its modular design, the AC 2000 can be used as a fine grinding, lapping, honing and polishing machine. Like all machines in the microLine© series, the AC 2000 relies on proven core components such as the high-precision pneumatic loading system, the non-contact micro-measurement control, the powerful drive technology and the PC-supported machine guidance. The software used for this is specially developed by Peter Wolters and enables complete menu-driven and intuitive operation of the machine. For optimum access to the working area, the entire upper part of the machine can be swung out.

The ecoLine linear model surface and profile grinding machines are comprised of a single steel base design. The longitudinal linear motor drive table with a max. speed of 60 m/min is its defining characteristic. Since 1999 hundreds of these travelling table machines have been delivered and are well established in the market. The ecoLine model is available with a grinding area of 1,000 / 1,500 / 2,000 x 700 mm. The machine is equipped with linear guides in all three axes. The Y- and Z-axes are driven by servo motors and ball screws (KGT) while the longitudinal X-axis table is powered via direct drive linear motor. The standard 11 kW grinding spindle can be upgraded up to 26 kW. A wide variety of available options like different types of dressing units provide customization capabilities for specific requirements.

This model is well suited for efficient, economical processing of circular workpieces via surface and step grinding operations. There is no lost time through deceleration, acceleration and reversal as with conventional reciprocation grinding. The grinding wheel remains in contact with the workpiece throughout the grinding process. Single workpieces can be located centrically on the table while multiple workpieces can be located concetrically to optimize table space utilization. A tilting table option allows grinding of chamfers or blade edges (i.e. circular blades), where the table can be tilted +/- 5 degrees. The high-precision rotary table is belt driven. This machine is offered with the xpressCube SPS controls package. A software option is available for step grinding operations. Benefit Overview — Compact and robust machine design — High productivity through continuous contact between wheel and workpiece — High long-term precision — Precision rotary table — Easy to operate

The microCut model was specifically designed to meet the requirements of profile and creep-feed grinding applications. The modular column design offers a small footprint which can be easily configured into economical production cells frequently used in the turbine manufacturing industry. This machine is available in compact standard sizes but special designs with spindle power up to 52 kW are also available. The integration into production lines is achieved through automatic material handling and tool changers. A common solution to reduce non-productive time is to equip the microCut with an index table to allow loading and unloading during the machining cycle. For high-precision applications, dressing of the grinding wheel can be done on the table with a diamond roll dressing unit or via interpolation of feed and cross axes. For production grinding the overhead diamond roll dressing unit is used for CDCF or intermitten dressing.

Our gantryLine models can process large, wide and heavy workpieces up to lengths of 5000 mm and widths up to 2000 mm with high precision. Special designs are also available to process wider and longer workpieces. This machine line with its variety of available features is suitable for surface grinding applications all the way through complex CNC manufacturing cells. Next to the horizontal grinding spindle a vertical tiltspindle can be mounted for grinding for example machines beds with under grip. The sturdy gantry-style machine design features a modern vibration-free mechanical table drive, linear guideways in all axes, an over-sized spindle drive as well as ball screws and linear scales in vertical and cross axes. These features guarantee that today’s expectations in the precision machining of large surfaces are met for rough machining and high precision machining as well. The gantryLine achieves highest workpiece precision and surface quality.

The powerLine technology machines are specifically geared towards creep-feed grinding applications. Their mono-base design allows grinding widths (Z-axis) of up to 700 mm with a maximum spindle power of 105 kW. The compact, steel base designed powerLine model is equipped with linear guides in all three axes. All three axes (X, Y, Z) are driven by servo motors via ball screws (KGT). The standard version of the multiLine comes with high-precision linear scales for positioning of the vertical axis. The direct drive of the grinding spindle from 48 kW guarantees optimal torque transfer. Different measuring devices and CD (continuous dressing) units are examples of a wide variety of available options making it easy to customize the powerLine to your individual requirements.

The mono-base design of the multiLine models allows grinding widths (Z-axis) of up to 900 mm. The compact, steel base designed multiLine model is equipped with linear guides in all three axes. The feed axes Y and Z are driven via servo motors and ball screws. For machines up to 2,000 mm the table is driven via ball screw (KGT). For longer tables up to 6,000 mm a linear motor (LIM) is used. The standard version of the multiLine comes with high-precision linear scales for positioning of the vertical axis. The direct drive grinding spindle with up to 37 kW guarantees optimal torque transfer. To meet your requirements this model can easily be customized through a large variety of available options like different types of overhead and table mounted dressing units for using Al-oxide or CBN/diamond grinding wheels.

The BG handles the grinding of flat and round broaches with ease. It finds its place mainly in the automotive and aerospace industries. Design and programming of the BG is based on many years of design and manufacturing experience in the tool industry. The BG signifies not only a machine concept but also a complete technology package consisting of machine and competence in tool manufacturing. The BG 1000 / 2000-T models are very compact traveling table machines for the grinding of broaches up to 200 mm diameter. They are designed to grind straight and helical teeth with very stable grinding behavior. The BG 2000 / 3000-C models are based on the moving column principle and display very consistent machining even on very heavy workpieces. They are designed for broaches up to 600 mm diameter. The distinguishing characteristics are profile precision, maintaining center and ease of use. Grinding of inner features is available as an option.
