  FGP-608LM Linear Motor
New FGP-608LM 3 Axis closed loop linear motor drive grinder is designed for precise, small-lot work that demand extremely high speed on very short strokes.



Machine Features
- Up to 2.5G acceleration
- 720 times/minute at 5/8" stroke
- 328fpm table speed
 
 

 
In a test cut on this tungsten carbide workpiece, the grinder made 35 slots 1/8" deep and 0.006" wide in 3 hours & 30 minutes! Pitch error is at 0.000080" and perpendicularity is 0.00016"
The table (X axis) is driven by a high speed linear motor which can deliver 2362ipm table speed. 

The linear motor is cooled by an oil chiller to prevent internal thermal growth.

All machine main frame components are Meehanite cast iron, PRO-E designed and FEA structure-analyzed offering optimal damping, superior rigidity and reduced deflection during high speed grinding.

 

The saddle is fixed to the large, box type all-Meehanite cast iron machine base. All linear ways on XYZ axes.

Advantages:

  • Low friction
  • Reduced machine vibration during high speed movement
  • More stability/smooth movement
  • Increased accuracy
  • Reduced cycle times
  • No stick-slip
Industry-proven grinding machine spindle technology: large diameter spindle supported by 4 ultra precision angular contact ball bearings. 

Adjustable grinding head swivel angle with ±5° adjusting range to meet various grinding applications.

New Double Column Bridge Type,Moving Beam CNC Grinder for grinding big workpieces up to 110,000lbs (maximum table load capacity for the 100 x 480 model)



STANDARD: WHEEL DRESSER WITH COMPENSATION

 
 

 
Patented ground beam design.
  • The column is anchored to a solid steel cross beam to ensure that the table weight doesn't affect column alignment.
  • Since the column is isolated from the base, the column's accuracy is not affected by the table load.
groundbeam
Patented crossrail guideway design features:
  • Linear roller bearings that handles 60% of the table load while providing smooth, stick-slip free movement.
  • Robust box way guide that handles the other 40% load with maximum rigidity.
linear-boxway
Patented crossrail elevating mechanism is
  • Driven by 2 servo motors/2 ballscrews supported by a mechanical counterbalance system.
  • Both spindles feature an interlock function that locks the crossbeam whenever it is being moved, ensuring perfect alignment.
locking system
Patented guideway system
  • Enlarged one "V" and two flat way design for the longitudinal slideway system ensure low friction and low thermal deformation.
