Herkules Machine Design
From the World Market Leader for World Market Leaders
The high level of vertical integration provided by Herkules roll grinders is unmatched in the global market and enables maximum control over the production process and product quality. Combined with our unique technology and design features, Herkules is the first choice for all applications.
Tilting C-Axis
This process enables more complex machining, i.e. the control of different machining angles and positions, and thus the creation of geometries that are difficult to achieve with conventional machines.
X-Axis With V-Shaped Guide Rails
For Precise Guidance of Moving Components
Benefits
- Precision, high stability and accuracy in movement
- Self-centering for better running accuracy and adjustment of moving parts
- Low wear and increased component service life
Fully Automatic Center Steady From Herkules (Self-Adjusting Center Steady)
The forces generated by the grinding process and the associated deflection of very slender rollers are compensated for by a fully automatic Herkules single-point steady rest.
The center steady is used to support the workpiece during the sanding process and ensure precise guidance. This is particularly important to stabilize the workpiece and avoid vibrations or oscillations that affect the quality of the processing.
- Precision: High-precision machining is made possible by supporting the workpiece against the grinding wheel during machining.
- Stability: The center steady is mounted exactly opposite the grinding wheel. This position guarantees direct compensation of the grinding forces during grinding over the entire length of the roll
- Avioding vibrations: Vibrations can have a negative impact on grinding quality and accuracy, so a stable support is crucial.
