The FB centerless grinding machine was developed for the precise grinding of synthetic bearing jewels, sapphire, watch crystals, ceramics and carbide. Thanks to the centerless grinding process and pneumatic feed control, workpieces are processed efficiently and with high dimensional accuracy. The machine was built and sold under the same name by Boccadoro before 2020.
FB – High-precision centerless grinding for demanding workpieces
The FB centerless grinding machine offers an efficient solution for precision grinding of small rotationally symmetrical workpieces. The workpieces are positioned between the grinding wheel and drive roller and supported by a carbide ruler. The machine operates in plunge-cut mode. The pneumatic feed control ensures uniform, force-controlled processing, while the oscillating diamond grinding wheel achieves the highest surface quality.
Main features:
- Centerless grinding: High dimensional accuracy thanks to stable construction
- Pneumatic feed control: Force-controlled processing for consistent results
- Automatic end feed cut-off: micrometer screw with 0.002 mm resolution
- Oscillating movement of the grinding wheel: Uniform material removal and optimum surface quality
- Compact design: Space-saving design with high stability
- Operation: Simple mechanically adjustable machine with timer for firing function
