Monza has
added new features to the company's Model CNC 1 Entry Level CNC Centerless
Grinder. Featuring the FANUC Powermate ID Control with color touch screen
interface for simple operator input, the CNC is now capable of storing program
parameters for many different part numbers and also controlling the available
constant surface speed (CSS) option not previously available on the entry level
Monza CNC models, the company said.
The Fanuc CNC controls the combined regulating wheel and work rest slides via a brushless digital servo drive motor with encoder positioning feedback. The slide movement is actuated via a high precision planetary roller satellite screw, offering a 2mm pitch, and multi lead design to eliminate backlash. The minimum programmable increment is 0.0005 mm.
CNC cycles consist of thrufeed and infeed, with rough and finish feed rates, programmable dwell and spark out times. Operating cycles consist of jog, single step (infeed), single cycle and continuous cycle. Slide positioning, zero setting, touch screen and automatic size correction are also included.
The CNC is also configured to manage all plug-in optional automation and gauging products offered with the machines for both thrufeed and infeed applications. Monza has its own dedicated automation division, MonVibro.
Other features on the Monza CNC 1 include:
Dual Grip Bearings on both spindles.
Hydrodynamic Bearings on Grinding Wheel (no metal-to-metal contact).
Six model sizes, with grinding wheel size from 12" diameter to 24" diameter.
Oversized low friction linear needle bearing dresser slides.
Low friction non-metallic dovetail feed slides.
Automatic slide lubrication system.
Positive constant air pressure system to protect slides from contamination.
Full enclosure and guarding system.
Fast and simple set-up and changeover.
Unique "tapered wedge" blade height adjustment system.
Built to European CE Standards.
