Full-width CBN centreless grinding saves time
Centerless cylindrical grinding machines uses CBN wheels offering simultaneous abrasion along the entire grinding wheel width, which ensures considerably reduced machining times.
Modules simplify CNC grinding machine choice
Modular CNC cylindrical grinding machine series covers almost every application and offers a multitude of processing options, which makes machine selection simpler.
The Jucrank 6 L is the first machine of the new Evolution_ machine generation.
As a modular machine concept, it primarily offers economical advantages.
The successful grinding technology developed by Junker remains unchanged.
The type range which can be processed by Jucrank machines covers all crankshaft types used in the automotive, car and truck sector, from single- to twelve-cylinder motors.
The machine design of the Jucrank 6 L is perfectly tailored to the complete CBN processing of large crankshafts.
It enables the simultaneous processing of the main and/or pin bearings with two grinding spindle heads.
Yet, the tremendous global success of this machine concept is not solely based on its technological qualities.
For customers, the economic factors are just as important.
This is why the Jucrank 6 L comes in as the perfect solution as it fulfils even maximum productivity demands.
The Jucrank 6 L demonstrated pin chasing grinding operations on the pin bearings of a six-cylinder truck crankshaft with a length of 1070mm and a weight of 102kg.
