Grinder prepares precision tungsten electrodes
Tungsten electrode grinder prepares high quality tungsten electrodes ground to a precise profile for all precision and orbital welding applications.
The WIG 10/175 provides an accurate grind angle with a clearly scaled setting mechanism.
The tungsten electrode is secured in a robust collet and then loaded into the main body of the grinder.
The electrode is then introduced to the diamond impregnated grinding wheel by means of a precision slide.
The collet is rotated as it is introduced to the grinding wheel to give a consistent grind profile.
The resin bonded diamond impregnated grinding wheel gives a polished finish to the tungsten electrode which gives a longer life and improved arc striking.
The WIG 10/175 can be supplied to work from either a 115V or 230V input supply.
The unit can also be supplied with a dust extraction unit for the removal of metal particles from the operators working area.
