External Thread Grinding Machine GAS

Machines from the GAS model range are used for processing external threads and similar profiles. Typical components for these machines are external ball screw for automotive steering systems, as well as drive worms and small pump and metering components.

In line with the shaft-type geometry of the components, these machines are designed with a horizontal workpiece axis and have correspondingly long travelling paths.

The processing of the parts is only effected in a discontinuous profile grinding process; the tool concept is adapted to the corresponding component requirements:

• Non-dressable KAPP CBN profile grinding wheels
• Dressable ceramic grinding wheels
• Dressable CBN grinding wheels

For specific applications, various tools can also be combined.
