Automatic Grinding Machine

About Automatic Grinding Machine

Specification:

The automatic grinding machine provides fast grinding of cylinder specimen ends to obtain plane and parallel surfaces according to EN and ASTM standards.
Three units of 38 to 100 mm or two units of 150-160 mm concrete cylinders ends can be ground simultaneously with the suitable cradle and water restraint panel. The length of the any specimen must be longer than 70 mm. According to ASTM and EN standards, the planeness accuracy of grinded surface is 0.05 mm. and the deviation of perpendicularity of the side with reference to the end faces is 0.5o. The equipment has selectable advance grinding time functionality by user from 50 to 400 seconds. Optimum grinding time per end of all type specimens is 90 to 120 seconds. The cradle which specimens are fixed on has automatic bidirectional radial displacement ability. The safe and ergonomic design prevents the user to exposure to water and dust and provides easy access to the water inlet and outlet. Specimen cradles and water restraint panels can easily be installed without the need for any assembly.

Mobility of the machine is achieved with the help of the integral wheels, and all components of the system can be safely accessed for easy maintenance. The frame is manufactured from aluminum to obtain a lighter weight and the stainless steel exterior shell assures resistance to corrosion. The water restraint panels should be ordered separately for cubic specimens or different sized cylindrical specimens.

Advanced Metallographic Sample Preparation

Engineered for the preparation of metallographic specimens, this automatic grinding machine delivers consistent grinding results with minimal manual intervention. Its adjustable speed and stroke, combined with instantaneous digital feedback, make it suitable for precise analysis in quality labs and research facilities. With a test width of 120 mm and capacity for up to three specimens simultaneously, users can optimize productivity while maintaining accuracy.


Safety and User-Friendly Operation

Safety is paramount with features like an emergency stop switch, safety cover, and integrated coolant system to prevent overheating. The touch panel interface, auto-stop, overload protection, and timer function simplify operation and monitoring, ensuring a safe and exceptional user experience. The machine operates quietly, maintaining noise levels below 60 dB, so it's suitable for laboratory environments.


Durable Design and High Performance

Built from corrosion-resistant stainless steel and designed to meet CE standards, this automatic grinder is both durable and reliable. Adjustable grinding speed up to 1450 RPM allows users to tailor operations to various specimen types, including hard metals and delicate ceramics. Its bench-mounted compact form factor brings efficiency to your workspace without occupying excessive room.
