Wheel balances raise roll grinding productivity
SBS Grinding Wheel Balancers from Schmitt Europe significantly improve productivity and quality for a major UK forged roll manufacturer.
Accuracy, reliability determined balancer choice
Accuracy, reliability and cost-effectiveness are the core attributes that influenced a machine tool supplier in choosing a supplier of wheel balancers for its re-manufactured grinding machines.
"At the end of the trial period, users can either keep the equipment and continue enjoying its advantages, or have it removed without owing us a penny," says Schmitt's General Manager, Dean White.
"Once users see the benefits for themselves, they are normally extremely reluctant to go back to their previous way of working," he adds.
"It is simply a matter of cost-effectiveness and fast payback.
We wouldn't be making this offer if we weren't totally confident that our systems brought an immediate and measurable improvement to user's operations." Comprising a computer control, sensor, spindle mounting adapter and balancing head, Schmitt's SBS balancing system has been designed as an inexpensive, permanent attachment for grinding machines with wheels from 6 to 48 inches diameter.
The fully automatic unit eliminates time-consuming manual balancing operations, while simultaneously providing improved component finish and dimensional accuracy, minimised surface burning and a dramatic reduction in wheel dressing frequency.
In addition, the system delivers significant cost reductions through improved wheel life and increased productivity - combined with substantial savings in machine downtime and maintenance. Request free introductory details about products from Schmitt Europe ...
